Fourth and Goal

The reason for my title is the simple fact that I have not posted in a while and I feel as if I do not post something now I will be so far behind. So here it goes, time on the clock for one play and it is fourth and goal.
I missed the photo opportunity here, but Mom had her towel draped over the bill of of her hat and I had said that she looked like a Bedouin in the desert. The beach was super bright that day. I could not recall a day that was that bright, or it could have been the fact that I forgot my sunglasses. Maybe.... Here Dianna is showing off her modeling skills at the Chinese pavilion at EPCOT. What a cutie!!

WHile at EPCOT, Mom spotted Rafiki and went to take a picture with him.
I bet that you all did not know that we had a little Norwegian in our family....his name is Jarod. Here Dad and Jarod are showing off the Norseman skills at the Norway pavilion (this was shortly after we listened to the Mariachi band at the border of Mexico and Norway).
Tai and Cheri came to visit Mom and Dad. It was a good visit. See Manny with Dad? He is so cute. Jarod is trying to hide behind Grandpa's knee.
This is a Tupua family tradition whenever you are at Disney's Contemporary Resort to take a picture in the Mickey ears. We were so happy to share this tradition with Mom and Dad.
This was at the Holy Land Experience after the telling of the Parable of the Good Samaritan. The man playing Jesus and the man playing Andrew were very gracious and so kind to us - to talk with us and take photos. It was a really good time. I would like to go back, because we left so much undone due to our search for lunch, which was right around the corner.
Beware!! There be Pirates about!!! I don't think I need anymore explanation. ARRRRGG!!! Avast ye swabs - to the next picture with ye!!!
This is when Mom and Dad first arrived at Disney. Beautiful!! See Dad Bailey in the back?
Same night as the last photo, but with Dad and Jarod. Cute picture.
Well that is all for now. More later, but I feel as if I accomplished something in the way of getting a little bit caught up after vacation. Love you all. Talk to you all later. Alofa tele!! It is hand off to the halfback. He is scrambling, breaks a tackle in the backfield. He has a blocker - it is Lakemanumana. He is in the endzone!! Touchdown!!!!!!!!

Not too bad being back to work. Already getting back in the routine. Love you all. We had a good time with Mom and Dad.

I think Lakemanumana is the endzone. On the Board Walk is the greatest place to be.

Jarod and Diana are really good posers.

Praise the Lord and have a good time until we skype again. Farewell good sir.
