Flag Football

Tre had the opportunity to fill in for some kids who were missing their flag football game. Tre played last fall and did pretty good, but didn't really understand the game. I was suprised at how well he did since he hasn't played for six months.



Tre did so good on defense getting to the quarter back and getting his flag and blocking his guys. At one point Tre took this kid and pushed him back about 15 yards and the kid fell over backwards. I of course didn't get that one on camera. But here he is blocking.

Random Sunday

This was just a random sunday that I got the kids to take a nice picture. I think they are pretty cute myself.

Kue's Surgery

April 27 Kue baller had to have tubes put in his ears. He wasn't very happy with the name tag on his wrist but we tried to distract him. The hospital gave him a stuffed animal and a new blanket.

His room had lots of murals of different farms animals that we got him to look at.

He enjoyed playing peek-a-boo with this curtain. But behind that curtain was the hall way which he would take off running down any chance he got. Almost like he knew something bad was about to happen.

The best part was these wagons. He spent most of the morning riding in this while benny pulled him around and around and around. He thought he was pretty important. He would wave at nurses and other hospital staff as he would roll by them.

Yes the wagon saved the day. Without getting his juice in the morning he could have been pretty cranky, but this kept him so occupied it was great.

He woke up from anesthesia pretty mad and didn't want anything to do with the hospital. They couldn't even get him to calm down to get his vitals before we left. As soon as I put his jammies back on and wrapped him in his blanket he was good to go.

Easter 2010

Easter was fun this year. Every year we go to my dads work for his easter egg hunt. It is only for their employees and their families for it makes for a much nicer hunt.

Kaylie and Tre with the easter bunny. Tre would only go by him as long as Kaylie did.

Family Visit

We were very lucky to have Benny's Brother, sister, and cousin come visit us on conference weekend. The kids love when they come and we always have great time.
This is Benny with his little (big) brother, and his little sister.

Of all the places to fall asleep

I left all the kids home with Benny one day and came home to find everyone asleep. Benny was on the couch with some basketball game on tv. (probably the lakers) Tre was on my bed. Kue was in his crib. I couldn't find Kaylie anywhere. So I panicked a little until I opened our bathroom door and found her like this. She had waited and waited for dad to come help her but since he was asleep he never heard her yelling "DADDY". She got tired of waiting.

Tre is seven

Wow my kids are growing up so fast. I look at Kue and remember when Tre was the same size. We love Tre so much. He is in first grade and is learning lots of new things. I love watching him figure things out. He is such a smart boy. He is very good. And he of course plays lots of sports.
Happy Birthday Tre, we love you.

Tre, Stephanie and my dad all have birthdays within five days of each other. We always celebrate them together.

Tre asked me for a transformer cake. This is as good as it gets.

Kue's Big Tongan Birthday Bash

The tongan culture celebrates 1st birthdays very very big. We love having big parties, so here is just a small slice of Kue's big day.

The birthday boy.

Everyone gathering before we started. Thankyou to all our family and friends who came and celebrated with us.

Kue's birthday cake.

This was Kue's grand Birthday entrance. He knew he was super important.

Kaylie did a hula. She was a little nervous and shy but for her first time we are very proud of her. Our little cousin also did another hula but I had some trouble getting it to post. Thank you Kira for having your kids dance and do some entertainment.

Tre and Tiger did the Haka. This was a big deal because neither one of these boys wanted to be up there in front of everyone. But Tre was determined to do it for Kue. What a good big brother.

Kue is One

Really my baby is already one. What a blessing he has been to us. He came into this world pretty fast and furious but he is my most laid back child. He is almost always happy unless he is sick or hungry. We love him so much. Kaylie and Tre love to play with him and teach him things. Our family would definately not be the same with out him.

This is him now. The kids dressed him up and of course he loved it.

Half time show

I'm finally posting the Cheer routine that Kaylie and Lani did for the Gale half time show. They did so good. Ever since they went to cheer camp they made me practice with them everyday. Mommy doing cheers..... now that is true love. They were so excited to perform. (You will have to turn off our blog music in order to hear them better)

(I tried a million times to download their dance but Blogger doesn't seem capable of downloadign a five min. video sorry.) But here is their last cheer that they did.
