Gramma & Auntie Maureen came to Visit!

Gramma Joan and Auntie Maureen came to visit at the end of April. The kids loved having them here. Every day when they would come over, Mick would tell them, "I have a surprise for you!" and it would be one of his toys, or a book, or something of his. One day, the surprise was Daddy! :-) We did a few touristy things and spent time at home so they could get to know the kids better. We had a great time! Here's a few highlights...

Gramma & Melissa hanging out at our BBQWe went on a really cool tour of the Mac.Nut farm. It starts out with a bus ride, then a Polynesian show with a fire dance, etc.,then a boat ride, and back on the bus.
We had a great time!
Melissa decided she would be the Bus Driver that day.
The passengers weren't all that thrilled at the idea!Mick and Gramma at the back of the busMick getting a handful of fresh coconut. Our friend Kanoa and Melissa waiting for their turns
Mick thought it would be nice to share with all the Japanese-speaking tourists. They got a KICK out of him! He went to all of them and offered them coconut - unless they already had some, then he would tell them no. The Japanese people loved him, quite a few of them were taking his picture, and he would just smile at them and offer them coconut!
What a sweetie!

Mick loves hula dancers! Here he got to pose with one - she's a CUTIE!

We went swimming in the ocean at Turtle Bay and had a wonderful time! Here's Auntie Maureen and Melissa
