On Thursday was Kahuku Graduation. I have a lot of students graduating, so me and Jessie went. It was really nice. Kahuku had 14 valedictorians (they all received at least a 4.0 since their 9th grade year) There were over $2 million worth of scholarships awarded, and although a lot were athletic, the academic way out weighed the athletic scholarships which Kahuku is kind of known for.
Me and Jessie and a couple of girls in our Sunday School class (Elizabeth and Ohelo)Jessie is 1 month old in this picture and the next...what a cutie!
This is how I found my 2 favorite people in the whole wide world a few minutes ago.
Although Jessie is putting on weight and is definately getting bigger...she is still so tiny compared to her daddy...look how little her hand is resting on Phils arm. :)
THIS is my birthday present! Phil asked his mom a few months ago to paint this for me. She did such an awesome job. It is oil on canvas. This is Chinaman's Hat at sunrise. (you may recognize it from 50 First Dates) It is a little island on the East side of Oahu. This is where Phil brought me, at sunrise, to ask me to marry him. We walked through the water and barely made it to the top of the island before the sun rose. So this little island has a lot of significance for Phil and I!!! I absolutely love the painting! Thanks so much mom and phil!!! (this one is without a flash)
This picture is with a flash.
she is perfect! so little, so cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome birthday gift, Karen. Sounds like Phil is a keeper....so much thought went in to that gift.
