Field Trip to Costco

Khung-khung has been visiting us from Hawaii for the last two weeks. 
He bravely weathered the cold to shop at Costco. Here we go  . . .
First, he needed to put on his own socks and shoes,

walk out the door,


and climbed into the car.

He hopped onto his scooter . . .


and motored around the warehouse.

Khungs fueled his body with, of course, a hot dog 
before the trek home.

He cruised out to the parking lot,

then hobbled to the car, and


and made it HOME!

Washington's Coastal Region


We headed towards Washington's coastal region with
family and friends for a winter "get away." It started with a
bang and a flat tire to Matt's truck. We soon encountered the
heavy rains and gale force winds at Ocean Shores which left 
us looking at the Pacific Ocean from indoors. Washington's 
beach is in stark contrast to the beaches of white sand and 
hot sun that we love in Hawaii. We spent many hours 
condo sitting playing Wii games while venturing out for a 
game of bowling. Beach play sent us hunting for treasures 
and being "human kites." It was fun having three generations
gathered together just like the yesteryears.

Our December Snow



It started to snow a few days before Christmas. Boy, oh, boy, it snowed a lot. You will see Clarence and Kim shoveling the driveway so the Cyn and Addi could join us at our house on Christmas morning. What a task that was!!

Portland, Oregon '08

Twice this season, we cheered Krystie and her Oregon Tech Volleyball team in Portland. Before each game, you'll find a pile of team bags "thrown" behind the bench. 

Uncle has his snacks while waiting for the match to begin.

Team members are introduced. 
Krystie poses for Aj.

Huh? I'm confused!

Hey, gals . . . let me in!

Listen Up!

Hugs for my coach . . .

and for my friend, Krista, too!

October '08 in Hawaii


We went to Hawaii to help Khungs build his ramp so that he could ride his scooter in and out of the house. But . . .


Look who wanted to take a ride on the ramp, too!
