Have a Wii Christmas!

On Christmas Eve, we got together as a family at Jessica and Dave's house and we enjoyed a rousing group Wii game of Mario Carts.

Even though we could not all participate directly (play), we all pretty well were involved and watching.

Then Christmas morning, I got a Wii as a present. That was a shock! I never even suspected that it was being considered.

I also got a bunch of accessories to be able to play all of the games better.

Christmas evening, we even got Grandma involved.

Watching people box was hilarious!

Today we had a doubles tennis match.


Great fun!

Since Cyd and Nora were coming for the Christmas holidays,

Christmas at Bishop Square

Every December for the past three years, I have been in Honolulu for the Christmas Tree lighting at Bishop Square. One of these years I hope Lauri can come with me. They put an insane number of lights on these trees! Each tree has either two or three different colors which are caused by having independent light sets. The other amazing thing is that these trees are fully leafed out since this is the tropics. You just can't see the leaves at night with the lights on! They spend several weeks in manlifts putting all the lights on.
