.... decided to make a blog....so i'll talk about my past Lana`i trip... so i went to Lana`i for Papa Beefs funeral and saw all the family... i love them soo much... once my boat landed they were all right there to give me hugs and kisses.... so the day went by and Papa Beefs viewing was all day and i guess everyone got bored and decided to take pictures...

(eft to right: RJ... Aunty Lorna.. Uncle Rocky... and Reese....)

and of course i wasn't there because i was at the baldwin (whom we tied with this past weekend) vs. Lana`i volleyball game which Lana`i won of course.... so i went after the game which was lyk 9 o clock... and hung out with my brother then he left and i was stuck with all the uncles because of course i was the youngest cousin there and all of my cousins were old enough to drink... so my cousin guys start to make trouble to me and we just play around and stuff and my brother goes up on stage to sing... he sings all the HAwaiian classics of course and Crystal Chandaleir by Ka`au Crater Boys because its Papa Beefs fave song.... i like that song too... and the night went on and it was like one in the morning and my brother was still singing so my uncle Randy guys start singing shoo bob soo bob.. and of course i was buss laughing and so was Uncle RIcky... and an hour later evreyone decides to leave... and i say bye to everyone and my cousin who i never see for lyk 3-4 years... and went home... my brother stayed over night to keep Papa Beef company and to stay and spend time with him... so the next day they cleaned up Union Hall and my brother and cousins decided to take the mule's down to Manele and left me with my mom and aunties... and the day went by and i went home... the next day my brother Ricky, my cousins Reese and RJ and Uncle Rocky take Papa Beef on Uncle Rockys boat and take him to Maui to get cremated.. and they fished on the way back... after this weekend i learned some very good lessons... first you shouldn't take life for granted and you should live it to the fullest because you never know when it's going to be over.. and second... never say that you hate your siblings, because once you lose them... you'll regret it... my brother left for college and i didn't see him for almost two years... and i love my brothers now because i realized that i do love them and they do love me....

from the time we were little

they watched over me...

and still to todae....

i'll love them forever and ever... and i'll never regret it... and third it's important to treat everyone like family... no matter what... you just might change someones life.. you never know....
