Christmas eve...

nora "reading" her music...

saying her verse/line.

the haile fam...

the whole haile fam!

36 weeks... christmas eve service!

last night at dinner with her plumerias...

a christmas rainbow!!!

one of the songs, and then nora's verse. her verse starts about 1:35 into it. feel free to skip till there!!

our Christmas eve program was done by the kids. they did the scripture readings and led us in singing. it was great. we have had a BUSY week. i haven't stopped. and it's been so much fun. i will keep posting pics of the "stay-cation" (for us anyway) soon. (maybe have some posts ready for baby time...)

Chrsitmas eve was spent at the beach. and then at the service. and now my darling husband is cooking us his chili, while kids sleep (or fall asleep) in their beds. and the adults eat peacefully. (lest you think i am a horrible mother, they have had LATE, LATE nights every night, with few naps... it will be good for them!!)...

last night, we went to dukes' restaurant downtown. it was wonderful. then, we walked back down to where we parked and watched the fireworks on the beach again. while we waited, the kids played and we enjoyed some music from one of the restaurants. and, my husband danced with me on the beach. i don't think life could get much better.

merry Christmas. mele kalilimaka. more tomorrow!!!
