To surprise Cari for Mother's Day, the kids wanted to make her a really big breakfast of all the things we never eat anymore (you know, the UN-healthy but delicious stuff).
Here is Cousin It cooking up a storm...
We were going to do bacon and scrambled eggs. But while in the store, someone else wanted to make Mom french toast. Then another thought of hash browns. I thought cinnamon rolls would be nice, but one of the kids wanted to make muffins. Unfortunately, they couldn't agree on which kind, so naturaly we had to get blueberry and banana nut.
And so was the Mother's Day feast...
And so what do you do after eating a huge Mother's Day breakfast?
Swim off a few of those calories, of course!
We picked up a new swimming vest for Malia and she tried it out today...
And Nalani has finally put away the swimming ring and has graduated to Kekoa's old training vest...
And Kekoa has tossed away the vest and is now swimming on his own!
Of course, it doesn't hurt to get a free ride from his big sister every now and then...
But if you have water, then you have to jump into it. And so began a series of "bombs" into the pool...
There was Alyssa's "peace" bomb (sounds like an invention of Vice President Cheney's)...
Or Bretty's bomb over his sister's head...
Or sometimes they just did it all together...
We do live in the desert. So the sun is always overhead. Of course, some of us tan at different rates than others in the house...
Well, we are all a little bit different.
Consider how many homes provide this as choices for an afternoon snack...
Freshly Inari sushi and Wisconsin cheese curds.
Mmmm good. (Well, at least the sushi).
