Happy 28th Bday Jase!!!

Crazy, but Jase is 28 today!!! Just think, 1 year ago, he was here in Hawaii on Holiday. He, Moisty and I sang him Happy Birthday in Zippy's at 11:50pm. We weren't married then!

This year it was quite different. Maybe not the most exciting, but how Jase wanted to spend it:

*a few days ago, phone call from Mahina and Tash

*20th (21st in NZ)- a bunch of skype phone calls to and from whanau in NZ. Mum and Dad, then cut off by Lian, Adam and Kingston, and then Maraea, baby girls and Ross.

* many more birthday wishes from lots of people of FB.

* breakfast in bed (i'm not a chef so it consisted of 2 over-easy eggs, how jase likes them, pancakes, toast and milk).

* hit the book, La'iekawai. Jase has to read this book to write a 6 page paper for history class. So we read it from cover to cover in 1 day, a great accomplishment for Jase and what he wanted!

* a quick session with the waves at Pounders, of course!

* very quick and instant cake and brownie made in 2 minutes with Bryer's french vanilla ice cream! Sooooo yummy!

* skype with Mum and Dad!

Happy 28th Jase!!!!!

August

*13th (Friday)-UH Summer School finished! Passed my first Engineering Course, CEE 270.

*14th (Saturday)-Jase performed with Te Hokioi in 2010 Te Manahua at PCC at 9am. After just 6 weeks of late night practices, they did well. My mom and Pii came to watch and support. Reena Andrus took these pictures for Jase and the group. That night, we went to Jenna Kaka and Jr. Ale's wedding reception where they performed some of what they did that day. Then, we went to Uncle Hyran's and hung out with all of the Maori group and enjoyed a big kai!!! Mmmmm!

*21st (Saturday)-Jase's 28th Birthday!

*26th (Thursday)-So after several months of keeping it a secret from everyone, the news is finally out! We're having a baby!!! Today, I had my first prenatal appointment with my OB Dr. Overton. We'll be delivering at Castle Hospital in Kailua since it's the closest. Here is our first picture of our baby!

He/she, not sure yet, is 11 weeks and 6 days old and 5 cm long. The head is on the left and the body on the right. According to Mahina, we've got our own "peanut"! We are sooo happy and excited for baby!

*28th (Saturday)-Duke Beach VB tournament! I was invited to play in a 4 man draw tournament. I played with Tony McInerny, Brad and Sean. We came in 2nd in our pool and lost in the quarter finals.
