Double rainbow

Beautiful drive to Mililani last night. I didn't drive, the King did. Is that why it's beautiful?

Blessed

Just jotting down how blessed we are. I know we don't have a lot of money. Right now I don't have a steady babysitting "job".   (Little K started preschool this year.) Pennies are being stretched.   The pantry and the freezer have never looked so empty.  I could sense the King's "worry" look even though he tries to hide it well.

Anyway, we went up to Mililani last night to have FHE with Gramma and Grampa at Auntie Wanda Naumu's home.  We  try to go every Sunday, but because the King and I had to go to a meeting/fireside we went last night.   (The meeting was for the high council man and their wives...  the KING played the organ= i lob it when he plays.  He is such a teddy bear.  When he is behind the piano or organ he melts my heart.  He is not all gruff and tough.)  We brought dinner.  (Beef and mushroom Dijon, rice and lots of rolls.)  Anyway.. it was a beautiful drive up there.  We saw a double rainbow.  I haven't seen double rainbows since I left Guam.  But yesterday we saw one by the Pineapple plantation.

Alright, get to the blessings already.  Though the pantry is looking empty we are not starving, there is always  food coming from somewhere and/or someone.   Our almost empty gas tank was filled up yesterday by Gramma Goo.   You see, we are all Goo'.  HE sure is looking out for us.    I acknowledge that He has his hands in all things.  We have a lot to be grateful for.  We are sure blessed.

Sleepy?

Warrior 4 must have been hot. He grabbed the manatee and decided to sleep on the bare floor. Much cooler I guess.

Moon bow copy cat

I just want to point out that this is similar to the moon bow we saw driving through this same area one evening. It looked like a bubble. Background of course was much darker.

CTR 5 and CTR 6

I was called in to sub one class this morning but then I ended up combining with another class.  Aren't they adorable?

  
 Here they are being engaged and I had them draw or write what they learned about the temple.

Here are the CTR 5 minus little Eva who fell asleep.


Here is the complete  CTR 5 with little Eva sitting in the middle with her legs crossed.  Looks like she is just meditating.  =)


Here we have the CTR 6 minus little Layton.
  They are so cute and honest.  Ask them a question and they'll tell you their whole life story.

2012 Youth Theme

The youth in our stake is being filmed today to take part in the 2012 Youth Theme. Pretty awesome!

Junior Class Social


I thought I'd blog about the typical day when the King is asked a favor.  Here are some pictures of the process.  This was for Warrior 1's Junior class social that took place yesterday.  
Everything unloaded.

The Gooey Goo Babes are wonderful assistant to the KIng.  They learned quickly.  If and when the KIng barks you better move!   I remember when I was the KIng's assistant......let's just say........those were the days.  Now I just sit back and supervise.  =)
