There have been a lot of wonderful things happening lately. Here are the highlights...

Do these girls look happy or what?

We all had such a great time at the birthday party. That night Maya and Sahara's 4 cousins stayed for a sleep over party. They were in heaven.

Here's a shot that warms my heart. My two guys snuggled up.

Here's Maya discovering static electricity.

Our relatives from Maui came over for a special visit following their son's wedding in Vegas. From Left: Uncle Leslie, my dad, me, Kingston Auntie Lani, Nader, Maya & Sahara.

My dear friend from Hawaii also visited. This is the first meeting between Nos and Kingston.

Maya has a doll that she absolutely loves that she calls Kingston Paul Khoury. Nader and I dislike this doll because it looks crazy. It's eyes are broken and Nader often calls it Chucky. (remember the movie of the possessed doll). Maya loves it and won't part with it, even though we have offered many substitution dolls. She once found her doll in the trash and threw a fit. I guess we are stuck with Chucky. Here's a picture of Kingston with Chucky.

The whole family went to Vegas to celebrate my Cousin Kalen's wedding. It was a rare occasion where my entire immediate family was together. It was very cool hanging out with family and my dear friend Lahela that lives out there. The Belagio had an amazing flower exhibit that my girls went crazy over.

My spring chick.

Look at the giant bugs. That frog to Sahara's left is covered with green flowers.

Sahara is my flower girl. She loves flowers so much she is often asking daddy to turn the car around so that she can go back and pick some flowers.

My two handsome men. This was Kingston's first time in Vegas !

Giant flower garden.

Wow !
