Lilliana turns 10!

Yikes, I can't believe Lilli is 10 years old. How time is just flying by. It's amazing to look back and see where I was 10 years ago. I had just graduated from High School and was getting ready to be a mom. I never knew how I was going to do it but I did and here I am to write about it 10 years later. I have grown and changed so much. Lilli has such a beautiful spirit about her. She loves the gospels so deeply. She loves going to church and is always reminding her dad and I about family prayer. This year for her birthday we let John take her on her actual birthday, so we celebrated it on the Sunday before with family.

Monday Night Football

We were able to get tickets to the Bronco/Steelers game. We went with Danny and Isaac. Of course the three of us were cheering on our Broncos but not Marcus, he was Troy Polamalu for the evening. He seemed to be quite the guy. People were taking his picture and everything. Every where we went people were talking to him and calling him "Troy". We had so much fun, I hope to do it again soon!








Before the game we got to meet up with the old "Classy Closets Crew". It had been such a long time since we had seen them. It was so good to see old friends.

Wyoming vs Air Force

Michael got a full ride scholarship to the University of Wyoming, the Cowboys. As expected they red shirted him for this year, but a couple of weeks ago to our surprise they pulled his red shirt and he was to play. He plays nose guard on the second string. Our friends had tickets to the game which was at Air force so it was close to home. Lilli was with John so we only had Leilani and lafai. We took uncle Neil with us also. This was our first real college football game experience. We drove down with Mamo and BooBoo. Before the game they had all sorts of tents up with venders giving away stuff. The kids got footballs and we could hardly get Leilani away from the Radio Disney Station. She got learn dances and win cool prizes. But I must say the best was when the jets do they fly over right before kick off. It was amazing. Lafai was a little unsure of them because of the noise. But it was way cool. They also had 5 guys that parachute into center field. I've always wanted to jump out of a plane. ( life changes when you have kids).lol
Michael rotated in and out through out the whole game. He had a few tackles and got to hear his name read aloud. We are so proud of him and is doing so well. And growing so much. Marcus and I got him some Jordan's and I guess they aren't going to fit him very long, he is now in a size 14. Guess we'll have to look for new ones.

First Daddy daughter date

Marcus and Lilliana had their first daddy daughter date on Friday September 11,2009. Lilli was so excited to do something with daddy all alone. It was a luau theme. Dancing, dinner, games and more, what could be better. Lilli wanted her hair curly so I put it up in curlers for a while. ( but that didn't matter because she wanted daddy to take the top off the jeep). So her hair was all over the place. When they got home she kept telling Leilani how much fun she had, of course. What are sisters for. I'm glad they got to go. Marcus said he had so much fun. Next year he will have both girls with him.

Water Fountains

One of the very last things we did before the kids went to school was go to the fountains one last time. It was nice because we had Tristan with us for the day. So the kids went and played for a while and then we had ice cream at McDonald's.
