Pictures at the Visitor's Center

Merry Christmas to everyone!  A  humble and mellow Christmas this year.   I hope everyone enjoyed their time with each other like we did.  We are blessed to have Grandma and Grandpa spend a couple of days with us.  Spoiling us all.  =)  [Thank you Grandma and Grandpa.]   I was fortunate to talk to Mama and Papa for over an hour.  I'm grateful for technology which makes it possible to stay in touch with loved ones far away.    It's always good to talk to Mama and Papa, Glet's pamilya and my brother who is always on the road driving long distances across the country.  "MERRY CHRISTMAS, BRO!"  Be hopeful that you'll be able to spend the New Years with your family and not on the road.  Anyway...

  The Gooey Goos have grown a lot.  The Warriors are still warriors!   They are quick to do their chores  so they can go out and play.   The Princess is still the princess.   She's busy as ever but is also taking a break from all her activities this Christmas break.   If you haven't heard... we are adding another Warrior to the family.

We have been blessed this year and are indeed grateful to our Heavenly Father.  We are grateful for the gospel in our lives.  We are thankful for our families  and  friends who support us.  We love you!

Here are some pictures that we've taken earlier today at the Laie Temple Grounds and the Visitors Center.    Enjoy some of the Goofy pictures of the Gooey Goos.  Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!  

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Dad, the King and Mom

 Me and the Warriors!

GOOEY GOOS

Goo Babes with Grandma and Grandpa!

The King trying to lift me up!

  I'm now safe and grounded.

Here is my Princess.  Growing to be a beautiful Young Woman.    I can't believe she is all grown up.   Yeah ya!  She's also taller than me.

Here are my Warriors!  I was asking them to give me a kiss.  Warrior 2 is all game but Warrior 1 looks grossed out.  EEEwWWWW!  Mom?!

"Come on!  Give mom a kiss!"  Warrior 3 smiles his toofless (two front teeth missing) smile.  

Grandpa and the Goo Babes!

Another family picture!   The King hates taking pictures.  We hardly have pictures together so these are precious moments.  =)

Another one!  Keep snapping those pictures, Mom!

Grandma's turn with the Goo Babes.  Grandma was a good sport.  She came hobbling along with her sore foot.  Hope your footsie feels better.

Hey, there's me and my Warriors!  "Guapo" di ba?  =)

 Pamilya Ti Goo!

The Goo Babes!

Miss Philippines and Mrs.  Philippines!!!  Hellurh!  My roots!  Her roots! Mabuhay Ang Pilipinas!

It's so hard to take pictures with the King.  He is always acting goofy.  Grate job for taking the picture Warrior 2.  At least my head is still in the picture.

"Look Princess!  My tummy is getting big."

OMG!(oh my gulay)  DO you feel baby kicking?   Right there!

Here is another one of me and the King.

Here is my Warrior 2.  He is the only one with the curly hair. He is always trying to be  funny.  He is the emotional one.   Kolohe like the King.  He  adds unique spices into our lives.   Pleasant ones and not so pleasant ones.  That's Warrior 2.

The 3 Warriors!

It was too windy so I swapped places with the King!  He said, "Is that all I'm good for?  Wind blocker?"    I said, "Today, yes."

The King acting like a "BAKLA!"  "Stop it!  I don't want you acting like that!"

Me and the great Warriors!  They are getting so big  to help take care of me and the King.   They help lighten my load.  My "BASURA" warriors!  My heavy lifters!  My "PLATO" and "BASO" washers!  "KUTSARA"  and  "TINIDOR" sorters!  My "KOSINA" helpers.  My toilet scrubbers and "BANYO" cleaners.  They can now carry a load of laundry, stick it in the wash, hang them up and take 'em down...only to carry it back in the house for all to fold!  They don't like it sometimes but they have no choice.  It's what Warriors do!
My Princess.  The Big sister.  Bossy.  Smart.  Responsible.  Avid reader.  Talented.  Daddy's girl.  Responsible.  The mini me.   Great helper.  My right hand.  My Princess.
