tag-a-long turtle...both pup and turtle's names are Mikayla...yes Mikayla
Hawaii was a blast. The weather was great and we took many pictures. The taking of many pictures is part of the reason it has taken me so long to post....I can not decide what pictures to share as there are way to many to share them all. As you know we did a lot of shopping and we also spent time at the Beach, the Lagoon and the pools. We went to the Waikiki Luau and watched the Luau at the pool in the Village and enjoyed some fireworks they had. We walked around the village and took in the sights and just plain enjoyed the Hawaii sunshine. We have now settled back in to our daily routines and Mikayla and Kellie have been having fun playing. They played dress up and Kellie was teaching Mikayla how to strike a pose. They had a blast. Mommy has already been talking to Santa and he has packed a few things away for Mikayla already he said there is only one more gift he wants to get her and he will have her taken care of. Just in case anyone was wondering Mikayla is in size 24 months right now and they fit fine except some pants fall off and some sleeves are too long depending on the brand. The pants length and everything else fits perfect so 24 months will be good for this winter only. She is also ready for Snow and Germany with her winter coat, snow boots, hat and gloves. All she needs is a sleigh for the boys to take her around on. :) We did go visit Santa twice this weekend already in two different malls and she is still having no part of him. This does not surprise me as she does not seem to care for any man that has a lot of facial hair. The Santa she was tormented by last year will be the same one we will hope to get her to sit with this year for those who missed that bawling pic I am sure we will have another. I am picking the Santa from last year for this venture for two reasons...maybe she wont find HIM so scary and this one always gives her a big gift when she goes to sit with him (better incentive then most). Well I don't have much excitement planned for a while we will venture to mom J's on my birthday but other than that we will be playing at home unless we find some other fun to get into. Catch you all later...hope you enjoy the Hawaii pics and the video from the Luau.
This first video is a dance so to speak that they do to protect their tribes/scare strangers from the tribe. The next is just one of the dances with the men alone also for protection....then there is the next one which is a small snip-it of a larger one. The last video was Mikayla by the bar having a blast dancing to the live band they had there.
