The ZOO

The Fam @ the Panaewa Zoo

A good looking lemur. He had the coolest eyes. We had to sing the "move it move it" song from Madagascar.

There is a serious peacock population allowed to roam the zoo. Hollis loved this bird, his eyes got so big.

Hollis enjoyed the zoo. Hollis practiced his waving skills. He really liked the feral pigs, they got waves and a "hi".

Easter Weekend

So for easter weekend went to the beautiful Kohala. We went to the beach and salsa dancing, then went to Aunty Patty's house for Easter brunch the next day. It was very nice to see everyone, but I am without pictures of the occasion.

Salsa dancing, actually sitting.

Hi from the beach.

My name is Hollis.....

Watcha talkin bout Ma?

So, Hollis was pounding my camera on the floor and it broke. Crazy I know, a little pounding and slobber and it's over. So, until I get a new camera (cross your fingers) we may not have new pictures. Although, Aunty Heather may have some pics we can put up. And we will definitely have a camera by Hollis's first birthday next month.

Hope everyone is having a great spring. We are still very much in the rainy season, super rainy, but having a good time.

Spring Break 2009

Oh my, I am standing all by myself!!!

Hollis getting tough with the giraffe. Poor giraffe.

Just saying HI.

Oodles of noodles. Hollis absolutely LOVES to eat noodles. He is very good at it.

Video to follow of this noodle eating action, soon I promise. We are all doing well, wishing for a little more sun and a little less rain. It is hard to believe Hollis will turn one year old in a month and a half. This last year has been a blur of happiness. The good times always seem to go by so quickly, we have to be present and enjoy them as much as possible.

Hugs and kisses

Finally a new post!

So I broke my data card and lost my internet connection at home. I am trying to find a new data card, hopefully a used one so I can save $300.
We are doing well out here in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Hollis is growing huge with teeth and hair. Hope everyone is healthy and well. xoxoxo

Radio Rocket, Hollis's new favorite toy. He can spin and go both forward & reverse. We are not sure he knows HOW he is moving it though.
