During church, when the Sacrament was being passed to Jack, instead of sipping the water~ he put the whole cup into his mouth! He really didn't panic, just had a funny look on his face. Since he was sucking the water out, it held it in. It took Traci to dislodge it, trying not to laugh.
Today at church I saw a little boy about the same age, do the EXACT same thing! The parents also didn't panic, but they actually laughed. Since they had several boys, they were probably used to it. Hubby and I can't remember Geoff ever doing that.
Jack, Oh, Jack...you're such a funny guy! Just the thought of you makes me laugh.
the traditional Samoan tattoos on men start just below the knee and go up the torso

Thank you so much John and Trisha for inviting us...we had a great time.
I actually went into the field because the gate was open. While I was sitting there a lady came walking out of the plants (think "Field of Dreams'). She explained to me that these sunflowers are grown by a seed company in CA to sell. As I stood there looking at them, I realized EVERY plant was the same height, the same color, the flowers were the same, just like carbon copies. She said that this is very important that they look like that, then the company can actually say "this is what these plants/flowers will look like". She told me that the climate here in Waialua is perfect for growing these plants. She expalined that before they get too mature they harvest them, so it's a short growing season.
