aloha! we celebrated hampton's fourth birthday among friends and family, with a luau at our home. this was her special request, as she has recently taken a liking to hawaiian music! she invited several young friends, including cousin, evie as well as some older girlfriends, who were excellent helpers for the duration of the party. yeah! the girls enjoyed painting wooden flower frames prior to "leilani" arriving to teach the girls hawaiian words and dance! they all did fantastic, as she was able to hold their attention for nearly an hour (on the hottest day of the summer, i might add)! we then feasted on kid-friendly tropical island fare before yummy cake and cupcakes. it was a wonderful day, providing memories to last a lifetime! we are especially thankful for the friends and family who have been a part of our lives, and watched hampton grow into the little girl we know today! mahalo!
