Kindergarten Graduation

Let it be written that on the ninth day of May, in the year of our LORD 2013, that Jarod James Talani Tupua participated in a program showcasing his amazing reading, math, and phonics skills. Along with fifty other students, Jarod James was a part of this program which resulted in the conferring of certificates of advancement into the next grade level.
Enough jibber-jabber. My son did amazing!!! Praise the LORD for HIS ability to learn and translate his learning into practical application. He was part of the reading demonstration, and he was the best reader out of the four. He also got to be part of the singing of the song: "Over in the Meadow" (in which he was the cutest little bunny you ever saw). We are so proud of him. We look forward to what the LORD has planned for him in the future. Love you all.

Happy Birthday, Princess Dianna

So our little Princess turned 8 this week. I cannot believe how quickly the time has flown. We are so blessed that she is in our lives. Here are some pictures from her special day. She chose Sonny's for dinner. The Baileys were able to join us for dinner and then back home for cake and presents. Jarod was so excited for his sister as she was openning presents. Everyone had a wonderful evening. Love you all. We wish you all were closer. Alofa tele.

Strawberry Picking

Last weekend we went to a farm 40 minutes North of town to get some "you pick" strawberries. We had a good time. The children thought it was great. We spent about an hour and a half and came away with 11 pounds of fruity deliciousness. Love you all. Have a good weekend.

Four Fried Chickens and a Coke

So when we came back from Disney, we stopped at a Bojangle's to get some food for the road. I had to laugh to myself when I was thinking about writing this post. I was trying to think of a title and then it hit me: I ordered a four piece drumstick and Barbie got a diet coke. Hence, "Four Fried Chickens and a Coke." The food was good and it was nice to know that we can get Bojangle's here in Florida. Yay, us! So here is a picture of my chicken (because I know you like it) and then there are pics from Dianna's birthday dinner at EPCOT. Thanks, Res, for Dianna's beautiful Aurora dress. She was able to meet Ariel, Belle, Snow White, Cinderella and of course, Aurora. She had a great time and we enjoyed her enjoying herself. Alofa tele.

Dianna's Birthday Trip

This weekend we ran away to Disney for Dianna's birthday (a little early, I know). We had a wonderful time. We visited EPCOT and Hollywood Studios. We surprised her with a Princess dinner at the Norway pavilion at EPCOT. She got to take a picture with Belle and was able to see Cinderella (a very rare sighting, since she normally stays at the Magic Kingdom), Ariel, and Snow White. Unfortunately, both of our phones were dead by dinner time. Sorry. Here are some pictures from this weekend. Love you all.

Happy Resurrection Sunday

Yes, I am aware that I am a couple days late but here it goes anyway. Hope you all had a good Easter. The childern were invited over to the neighbor's house for an Easter egg hunt; they had a good time. Here are some photos from Sunday. Therw are also some pictures from the Sunday morning service. We sang "In the Garden" and I thought of you, Dad. Love you all.
