More Super Hero Pictures

Kono's collection of capes. He loves to have it displayed and gets upset if I even touch them.
He adores superman
Here he is in his new Batman pj's, doesn't he look like he's getting so big?

Kono on a goat

Kono rode this little goat over the summer with the help from his uncles.

A Memorable Day

So I'm pretty much 2 months behind on a couple of posts but luckily I have my camera back now and I found my usb cord for my camcorder, so hurray! But before I move on, I could not leave this special post out. On Jul 4, 2008, we were all together as a family witnessing the baptism of my sister-in-law Dawn who is married to my brother Jared. They have 3 beautiful kids, Julianna who is almost 7, Alyzabeth 3, and Rian who's now about 6 months. It was one of the best news we were told when she decided to take this great step in her life. We didn't even know she was taking lessons (all except my mom). It was a wonderful and memorable experience and we all are so grateful that this moment has come. We truly know that their lives will be blessed as they embark on the wonderful journey of having the sweet gospel in their lives.

Summer Camp

This post is really late but better late than never. We had a Fourth of July camp (what we called our first Ludlam/Curley Family reunion with just my Mom's children and grandchildren). It was held at my late Grandparents' residence (what most people call sheep camp, but we never did) in the Summit area, between Ganado and St. Michaels. It's such a BEAUTIFUL area, with many pine cone trees, acorn trees and just rich in color everywhere, green and that pretty reddish dirt. It was so nice to be back with the whole family. We were all there, as you can imagine, it is quite hard for all us seven children, the in-laws, 9 grandchildren plus My Mom, Corrine and Jeremiah's girlfriend to get together in one place at once. We camped just one night, and spent most of the day there. Miah and Maranda brought their horses for "entertainment". I only took a few pictures with my camcorder, I took more with my bro-in-law's camera, so I'll have to post more pics later.



This area is right behind my Grandma and Cheii's house
This is once where My Grandma and Cheii resided. I have so many great memories of being here and it was quite sad to come back but at the same time it was sooo nice to be back.
Here is Granite trying to be cool with the in-laws, they played literal homemade baseball with pine cones and a long stick from the sheep corral.

And here is my cutie pie Kono in his cute camouflage cap playing with an old bike tire he found. Here is Miah with all the horses that he brought (at once) from the main highway, doesn't that take skill?

Super Heroes

Kono has been soooo or should I say super into Superman and Batman this Summer, well actually ever since this past Fall, but more so since summertime. He and his cousins Nahoa and Kekoa (sometimes Ikaika) are really into it too.
So I think we are officially announcing that Kono has replaced his dad with these super heroes. The red cape he wears practically everyday once belonged to his dad when he was just a little energetic boy like Kono around his age. It was creatively crafted by Grandma Sarah.


Here's Kono in his Batman mask with his Superman cape, what a combo!


Granite showed Kono his Superman shirt and Kono fell in love with it instantly. He wanted to wear it right away and could care less to wear anything else. The bottom of the shirt reached to the floor and the sleeves reached to his wrists. And although it was too big, Kono didn't think so. The funny thing is, when he goes shopping with me and I'm trying on a shirt or blouse he say's "Mommy, it's too big, put back." :)
I didn't want Kono to trip while wearing that big blue shirt so I threw it into the laundry basket and he hasn't asked for it since.
Kono also thought he was so strong when he lifted this bed (aka air mattress).
Another funny thing Kono did today was while he was watching Superman, he came to me in the kitchen and told me he wanted to carry me like Superman. He put his hands out and I let him think that he was carrying me. You know how Superman always does his famous carrying/saving stunt (or whatever you want to call it) of Lois Lane while flying? That's what he was trying to do. :)

Trip to Hoagle Zoo

Kono and Kekoa all excited for an adventurous day

I love this baby elephant. I think elephants are fascinating. I didn't take too many pictures of the animals, and wished I did so Kono could remember all the animals he saw.
Kono had fun sitting on this Rhino
.
This monkey was sitting on the tiny space of a window ceil/ledge, it was cool to see it so close but Kono was trying to shew it away that silly boy. The monkey had a really long a fluffy tail, a whole lot different than most monkeys.

Kono didn't want me to take his picture and he tried to grab the stroller shade so that he could quickly put it in front of his face, but I got 'em before he could.

Out on a cruze

This past Summer, Kono was lucky enough to have been able to drive a Ford F150 (or any type of power wheels) by himself for the first time. It belongs to his cousin Isaiah. So after our trip to the zoo, this is what the boys took turns doing- cruzin' around as if the were teenagers already! It was so cute. Oh and get this, it even plays real stations from the radio! Thanks Zay-Zay and Uncle Matt :)
