There is beauty all around!

These are some pictures of the beautiful rainbow that was in the sky Friday evening. I took them from the balcony. The pictures of course don't do it justice.

Update

Standing at the couch

Halia and her Great Uncle Jr. At Leilani's wedding. It was cold!

Pretty smile!

Halia Is 8 months old. She started crawling about a week ago, She loves to clap and mimic the sound of growling and da da, She is pulling herself up to stand at the couch, She has 4 teeth, 2 on the bottom and 2 on the top. The ones on the top are not her front teeth they are her fangs. She is our vampire baby =) (Zayah grew his in that same order) She is officially not nursing anymore and doing great with the bottle. She has been sleeping 12 hours with no interrupting mommy and daddy's sleep for about a week (HOORAY!!!). She is getting bigger and more fun every minute. She has such a fun personality and we are enjoying watching her learn and grow.

Halia, Grandma Daly & Isaiah.

Christmas 2008

Christmas EveJaba had to work Christmas eve until 9:30 so we hung out with My parents and some of my siblings and their families. We drove to a neighborhood that is known for their Christmas lights. Isaiah LOVED it. Not to long after we got home we got a special surprise! Daddy came home from work early. We drank hot apple cyder and sat by the fire. It was a nice evening.

Christmas Day

We had a Very special Christmas morning! Santa was SO good to us this year. We feel very blessed! Christmas day was fun and relaxing. We opened presents, Talked to Kevin, had a gift exchange, opened more presents, played games and just enjoyed being around family! Thank you everyone who helped make this year such a special one!

For Jaba's Birthday!

We started the day going to our ward's breakfast with Santa! Isaiah understands who Santa is this year and his cute little face lights up when he talks about him! He wasn't scared at all to sit on his lap and tell him that he wants a Spider man back pack.

We were able to go home after breakfast and take a nap. When we woke up we went to Red Mountain Park. We fed the ducks, tried to get Jaba's remote controlled boat to work on the lake but it didn't. Jaba and Zayah played football. Halia Loved the swings. We Spent about 3 hours enjoying each others company and the weather.

After the park we headed to Tempe Town Lake to watch Tausala (the group Jaba used to dance with) dance. It was freezing there so we didn't stay long but it was really nice to see some old friends.

We came home, sang happy birthday and then had dinner together. Jaba had to dance a show but wasn't gone for to long. When he got home we had cake and Ice cream. My parents were out of town so it was just our little family. I asked Jaba how his birthday was and he said it was just what he wanted, spending the day with his family.

Thank you for the cards and gifts and phone calls. It helped to make his day special!

By the light of the moon

We often go outside before dinner to burn off some energy. These days it just keeps getting darker and darker earlier. Last week we were playing and before we knew it, it was dark and we were playing by the light of the beautiful moon! Light or dark we still have fun outside.

And Yes, I'm letting my son jump on the trampoline with a fresh head laceration! But just look how happy it makes him!

Happy birthday Jaba!!!

Snow boarder!

Wake boarder!Steer wrestler!Husband, Father & SO much more!Happy Birthday to my handsome, funny, talented, silly, loving, hardworking, amazing, Best friend! I hope you have a good one Jaba! I love you!

Saturday night.

We decided to still go to the Temple lights Saturday night after our big day in the ER. We went with some of my family. We got to listen to 2-5-9 sing and see the pretty lights. Both Zayah and Halia loved it! After, we went to Red Robin. Yummy. Zayah got a treat for being so good at the hospital he thought he was gonna get to eat that big ice cream all by himself. Good thing he shared it with daddy! We got home, changed his band aid and let him look at it for the first time. He looked long and hard. We got him some Car's band aids so he would be more excited about wearing them. He is back to his good old self again. Running around and nearly giving me a heart attack every day! I love you son!
