Big Brother's Wedding
(click on the photos to get a close up)
4 days and 3 nights with my mom, dad & grandmothers. When in my adult life can I spend quality time with them? My family was left behind as the 5 of us headed for Honolulu on March 5th. It was gray in Hawaii but warm. We were fortunate to get upgraded to a Hawaiian Hilton Suite. On a couple of nights, I spent time with the younger folks (including cousins) out in Downtown Waikiki and at Kareoke. We cabbed to International Market where my grandmothers bought large black pearl and opal rings. They love to shop and get sudden bursts of energy. On a rainy afternoon, my parents also ventured to IM and Waikiki Beach. There were two authentic Korean restaurants we dined at and the Halekulani had a beautiful outdoor wedding & indoor reception, with a view of the Pacific. The evening of the wedding even ended with fireworks from a neighboring hotel. When I returned home Sunday night, I only found two items broken in the house and the family room was all tidied up. Thankfully, I had Monday off to recover. Hubby did well with the kids, he followed the menu and took the boys to their sporting activities and church. They didn't seem to miss me too much :) This was a beautiful memory to see my brother get married!
