New Adventure

Well we started a new dance class today. Ame is still taking Hula but seemed to have lost interest in tumbling. Personally I think it was the instructor, I wasn't that fond of her either.
She is now taking a combo-jazz/ballet class. After going to our neighbors recital, she definitely decided that was what she was interested in. Hopefully she develops some more skill than the minimal ones she has come up with on her own. Either way I know she will have a lot of fun!

randomness.......

So of course I downloaded pics off my camera again and found some random things to share.

Ame was invited to a birthday party for her hula teachers kids over the weekend, and we had ALL planned to go, then mommy got sick-first a BAD cold and then the next day I got hit hard with the flu (the day QUinn was leaving for work training in Memphis for a week). Thank goodness my mom lives close. YOu are a LIFE SAVER, literally!! I can't tell you how much that helped me mom. Just hope YOU don't get sick.

Ame and Kaipo having fun in mommies BIG bath. I don't let them get in mine very often, I'm not sure why. Maybe I just don't feel like taking all my decorative stuff, scrubs, etc. down from around the tub or maybe I don't want the mess ALL the time in my bathroom. But I was feeling NICE one evening.
Last week I went to visit my old school and friends that I taught with. I've been wanting to do it all year and finally made it down there on a day other than the weekend. I was going down for a graduation party and decided that it was a perfect time, since it was 6th grade celebration day, to go see old friends. When we were pulling up Ame reminded me that no one would know it was me because of my dark hair, until they saw my face she said. So observant she is! The teacher on the left had been in the dunking tank and was embarrassed to take a picture ( I got to do that last year too) and the teacher on the right is pregnant. She has been trying for a long time so it was fun to talk to her about that. When I headed inside to say hi my old principal gave me a BIG hug. It was funny! And reminded me when I am ready to come back to teaching to come see her. But I think that is a little too far from my home now!
