Love comes in all forms in our 'ohana. For Dave, it's in the lab at UCI as he earns a Ph.D. in chemistry or at home, leading family home evening. For Ka'ea, it's laundry, reading Hawaiian books with Chrissy or having fun just keeping up with her. Chrissy works at singing cute songs, gymnastics, playing, saying prayers and making us laugh. With everything we put effort into, we know that loving our 'ohana is most important because it's forever.
Our Family Motto:
HE HANA KE ALOHA.
"LOVE IS WORK."

Up, Up and Away! OC Great Balloon
Chrissy, a friend from Maui and I went for a free ride on the Great Balloon at the OC Great Park. It was so fun, and did I mention it was free? We had a great time, despite the windy conditions. The hot air balloon is teathered by a strongle cable and we go up 400 feet in the air. It was nice hanging around up there. Chrissy loved the unstable weather conditions - a slight wind but just enough to rock the balloon back and forth. Every time we moved side to side she said, "Uiha! Uiha!" That is a Hawaiian way of saying, "Yeah!" She is so adventurous. Her grandma and I agree that if one day she becomes an actress, she'll definitely do her own stunts.
