ILOA's were in Town.....

For those of you who grew up with them...you know how much fun and crazy "The Iloa's" are! And if you from Hau'ula then you know how things are done and it's just understood! Well we had the luxury of having Maile and Joe and Joe's daughter Il'e visit us this past weekend! Since the Laie Temple is closed for the next 18 months, this makes the perfect excuse to have visitors here on the Big Island to attend the temple with!....Maile, who is everyone's BIG SISTER recently lost about 85 lbs and looks just beautiful! Joe brought his daughter to hang out with my kids, they had so much fun together~ Joe and Mana took one day to play a round of golf, we made some fabulous grindz and enjoyed desserts, movies, games, and plenty of laughing with everyone!

Today Maile and I took in an early morning session at our Temple then took a 2 hour drive to Hilo to visit another friend, Maria Waite. When we arrived at Maria's the aroma of her mothers famous baked rolls permiated the house! We found Sister Waite in the Kitchen,cooking her famous thanksgiving spread for Maria's baby's first birthday party! Man,everything was top Notch as always! We even had time to stop in at the "Two ladies kitchen" to get the best MOCHI in town! WOO HOO...it's always sad to see everyone go...but we are so lucky to have had some great company this weekend! Can't wait to see them again.....Maile, Thank you again so much, for everything, it's always a blast!

Ohhh, it's about killing us to read this and look at the pictures. Tommy feels like a left out pig and the picks of Owen being there too, is not helping. We love all you guys and glad someone is having fun.
Now I am sad and wishing we had some of sis. Waite's hot rolls to make us feel better.

PS DANG Maile does look like Kristy! She is always beautiful but does she need to be looking so sexy ,too??/ (JK maile, you know im just jealous!)
Love you all! The st. George 'Iloa's

Wow...so jealz! Sounds like you had so much fun. I must say seeing sassy Maile reminded me of her old HS photos before Kristy! Pee girlfren!
And what a pleasant surprise to walk into sis waite's rolls being done by the master herself. Must've been heavenly! FUN!!!

BTW...thanks for the guilt trip of not attending temple (esp when its convenient). Will take that to heart and head on over soon. =)
