Wishing for warmer weather

GrandKids wanted to do "warm things". So of course having a luau dinner was fine with us. We planned for this dinner and the kids made decorations. The evening finally came and the party was a lot of fun.
As you can see Babcia even had two water pools out for the kids to use inside next to the fireplace. Where else would you put one inside, this kept the kids warm when they got out of the pool.
The Limbo contest was a lot of fun and back breaking for us "older ones". Dancing the Hula was more up my alley. The temperature in the house reached a high of 78 degrees. It was so balmy that we had the fans going to get the effect of an island breeze.
Koy had made the island tropical drinks to keep "cool".
We celebrated Babcia Stella's 78th Birthday at our house. (Dana's mom)








Can you find OUR names on this list of names in Hawaiian?













The sign says, "Welcome to the Maca-Poli-Hawi dinner party.
