What we've been up to......

Exploring the UCD Arboretum:
A lovely walk in early spring.

Making Cake & Strawberry Pops:
Inspired by K's love of the Starbux Cake pops and Bakerella's many gorgeous designs, Kainoa and Allie took their turn trying the art of the cake pop:

A Story by Kainoa

Here's Kainoa's addition to the blog.

Allison and Kainoa went on a sleigh and we met Rudolph. Kainoa and Allison talked to Santa. We told him that we have been good this year. I wished Kainoa and Allison met Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Santa and Rudolph went to pick Kainoa up from the airport and Santa picked Allison up at the airport too. Rudolph and Kainoa watched Allison skip. Then Allison and Rudolph watched Kainoa skip. Rudolph will pick up Kainoa from the chimney. Then they picked up Allison and then they went to visit Papa. Allison and Kainoa rode on Rudolph. Kainoa and Rudolph sat on a sleigh and Kainoa, Rudolph, Allison and Papa played on a house and you never know what's in the pinata! There was a cake on the roof. They then sang the song: Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

Catching Up.....

It's been well over a year since we've updated the blog....I'm sure most of you have stopped checking. But, my mom and Kainoa regularly ask about it, so I'll do my best to keep it updated (with Kainoa's help....)

So...here are some of Kainoa's favorite photos from the last year: (in no logical order)
