2009!
It been a wonderful 2008. My grandson, Bradley was born on Jan.2, 2008 and I got to visit Kristen, William and the kids on Oahu for 5 weeks. Grandma Meris came to visit the last 2 weeks all the way from the Boston area. Lillie and Asi are beautiful and growing. They all just melt my heart.
This past summer I spent 7 weeks in Ca. with my brother and his boys. I love my nephews. They are the best. They are 10, 8, and 6. This is also the year I turned 50. It just gets better and better. I loved seeing my brother and was delighted to be with the energetic Kyle, Corey and Dylan.
In December Brad, my soulmate, myself and Kim our youngest spent 2 weeks with the Tu'ifua clan in Laie. Kristen, my oldest kiddo is a wonderful Mom, wife and friend. She is a foodie and is always busy, busy, busy. She married William whom we adore. He comes from a large family. They are happy, tremendously kind and love each other so much. My grandkids could not possibly be in a better situation to grow up. Kristen has three precious babies and an awesome hubby and they live in paradise.
December 29th I had my knee replaced. I am grateful it is behind me. Kristen brought the baby Bradley, now 1, to watch over me for awhile. There are no words to express how grateful I am for my family. We are all doing well and I am ever mindfull that my life is richly blessed because of the love that we share and the joy that comes from living the gospel of Jesus Christ.
My son Jeff is working all the time and our youngest Kim is in college. At the end of this month Brad and I mark our 28th wedding anniversary. I couldn't think of anyone better to spend my life with. I love this man and always will. Life is full and busy. Isn't it wonderful!
