President's Day

Finally a holiday off of school for Kasala. We had decided with our neighbors to have a small BBQ outside. Instead of having it at TVA our friends invited us over to their parents' house for the BBQ. It was a perfect day and the perfect place to have it too. Siki's parents live right on the beach and across the street from my very first place in Hawaii. (I use to walk through their back yard to get to the beach!) So we went over there and the guys started to grill. They had a huge bucket of meat to cook. While we waited for another family in our building to come over we headed to the beach. Terina couldn't wait to jump in! Vaea, on the other hand, is scared of the water.
We spent most of the day in the water only getting out to eat every once and awhile. Terina spent most of the time with Mia and I got a much needed break. I was right there with her but she would rather be swimming with Mia than me. One of the highlights of the afternoon.... the boys taking out a kayak and trying to make it move forward. They must have spent almost 2 hours out there messing with that thing! It was a great afternoon with some great friends. I am going to be really sad when everyone starts graduating and moving away. These are definitely people who we are going to keep in contact when we move away too.
