I'm ready to play blogger tag:
My 3 joys
1. My huge, wonderful family; all 13 of them!
2. Being a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with all the bells and whistles that come along with that.
3. Having good health and being free to do so many things.
My 3 fears:
1. Getting old, having a stroke and needing someone to take care of me.
2. Speaking to strange people in large groups and trying to look like I like it.
3. Getting food stuck in my teeth and not knowing it.
My 3 current goals:
1. Get my bachler's degree in Biology from CSUChico.
2. Becoming a good teacher.
3. Getting to see Daisy in Tennessee.
My current obsessions:
1. Getting straight A's.
2. Learning plant species in CA, and invertebrates in CA rivers, lakes and streams.
3. Finding an affordable plane ticket to see Daisy in Tennessee.
And 3 Random facts:
1. I floss my teeth once a day because I hate plaque between my teeth.
2. Some of my best friends are only 20 years old. ( They attend CSUChico with me)
3. I'm so bored by housework that sometimes I sweep dirt under rugs, stuff clothes in drawers without folding them, I wait until gross black and red fungus is growing in the shower and I never mop until my shoes stick to the kitchen floor.
No one really reads our blog, but if they do I tag: BEN and JEREMY

Joey resting, it was so windy that sometimes you would be paddling and go nowhere.

Harrison and Danielle wanted to start a water fight and they ended up getting really wet. Dad, Joey, and Mikey all swarmed in and the water started to fly.
Our Island Paradise Family Vacation
Aloooha!
We had the opportunity to visit Elissa and David in Laie, Oahu. David is going to school at BYU there and Elissa is there to support him in all his studies and extra-curricular activities, such as snorkling, spear fishing, surfing, tanning, belly boarding, shopping, etc. It was so great seeing Elissa and being able to spend a whole week with them, talking to them everyday and seeing what they do on this far away island.
We loved being there even though it was humid and the temperature never varied, it was always about 85 degrees night or day. Being able to swim in the ocean and be warm was so nice and swimming in the ocean with a snorkle, goggles and fins was akin to swimming in the hugest aquarium imaginable.
This was an experience that we will treasure forever!

Yep, it's confirmed, their ancestors were probably mountain gorillas...

The inside of a submarine would be no place for a tall person like Mikey, his head would hit every knob, wheel, pole, metal protrusion anywhere in the sub!
The Polynesian Cultural Center had many interesting buildings and structures to represent each village, this is a Tongan Temple.
Harrison loved surfing...
David and Elissa still happy even though they housed us in their little apartment, and we rode around in their Honda...yes, six of us in a car that seats 4 comfortably.
Mikey making friends with the Tongans. Elissa has the video on her blog.
Harrison's Paradise...sitting behind the biggest guns he's ever seen!
Someone else is having way too much fun sitting behind the big gun...
