Washing the Car

Living on the North Shore, or by any ocean is the best, I love it. But with a new car Rusty is constantly washing it to keep the salt water from destroying it. Hanalei loves to help.

I love this zoner look

Dad will show you how

She had a near melt down when dad took the towel, so she got her own rag

Now we can really get down to business

The Zoo

I have been wanting to take Hanalei to the zoo for months but I wanted Rusty to go too. We finally made it happen. It was such a fun day.

A Rare Family Photo

She is truly stunning, even with all the dirt on her legs

Jonny and Breanne came with us. Marilyn, I mean Hanalei loves Jonny

I wonder what she is thinking about in this moment

One of the higlights seeing this very large picture of a Gecko (Mo'o)

As if we don't see enough of them in our apt.

The cutest monkey at the zoo

She loved every spot we visited. I should have taken more pictures as always. It was fun to see her say and sign many of the animals we saw.

They had a ton of tortoises at various spots around the zoo. We happened to see some maiting. The male was making some crazy noises that scared Hanalei half to death. Jonny was excited to learn what a turtle says.
