Hello Again!!!

Well, it has been quite a while since I have posted and I am sorry! I really have no valid excuse, beside just being busy with the girls! In July, we took a 17 day trip to Hawaii and it was the best trip we have ever had there!! All 5 of us went, yes Liana made it too and it was great! We spent most of the time with Kunane's parents at their house, but did get away to the North Shore for a night, the Big Island for a couple of nights and Waikiki for a night. We really enjoyed spending time at the beach and the girls absolutely loved it. They are at the perfect age to travel! They kept each other entertained on the plane and got along beautifully the entire trip! Kulia finally sees the culture and loved to dance Hula and talk in the words she knows. Kalena is also very proud to be Hawaiian and fit right in. While there, Kunane's brother, Keoka, had major surgery for thyroid cancer. He was in ICU for several days and is doing better now, but it was really touch and go. I am really happy that we could be there to support his wife Tricia and be with the rest of the family. Please say a prayer for him as he is still fighting it.

We returned and the next day Kalena and I had to return to work. It was very difficult to go back after spending every waking minute the Kunane and the girls, but I must work to pay for our trips like these. I have been back a month and still struggling to go everyday. I am counting down for my next break in November.

Kalena is playing soccer again and is doing well. I am coaching and having a great time. Kulia practices with us every week and is going to be a great player when it is her turn. Kunane goes back to teaching tomorrow. I didn't say work because football has already begun. He is still enjoying it and we love supporting him.

We hope all is well with everyone and we love and miss you! I will try and be better at keeping you updated. Until next time....
