Grandad's Visit

This past weekend we've had my Dad here which was awesome! I prepped Malachi, showing him pictures, praciticing saying Grandad (which sounded more like jhgadfgh so we went with Grandpa "dampa"). And these two clicked straight away, budz for life. It was so cute to see them playing, Malachi showing off and being silly, Dad thinking it was great.

Malachi showing Grandad how to play on the Wii.

Watching Barney together.

Riding on Grandad's shoulders. (Notice that they both have hats on, any time Dad put on his, Malachi scrambled to find his to put on too.)


Malachi went through Dad's bag and went straight for the good stuff - the electronics.



We packed our days full of swimming, shopping, eating, napping, a bit of PCC, some board games, it was alot for 3 days. We had such a great time with him here, especially due to his rental car! Malachi followed him around like a puppy, wanted to do everything he did, if grandad had shoes and socks, malachi wanted shoes and socks, if grandad had a hat, malachi wanted a hat. He started calling him "untle" (uncle) towards the end of the visit, not sure why, maybe he thinks my dad looks young. :)

Sand doesn't taste good son.

Buddies.


Oh yeah, Tui was there too.


Digging a hole.

Malachi in the hole.


Pali look out.


Buried in the sand and loving it.

The boys swimming at Waikiki.

At PCC.

Watching the Samoan show.

Last time at the beach.

Drawing faces.

Dad and the car - for some reason that's important.


We can't wait to move home in a few months to have more

BOO to moving home. But how cute how they got along :) Tell Tui he looks like a little kid again on one of your many boogie boards.
