Grandparents: It's all about spoiling kids!

Nonna and Nonno are here to visit. They arrived Friday late at night (11:00 PM) into Hilo from Oakland. Hana & Syd wanted to go to the airport to pick them up regardless of the time. Hana managed to stay awake, she actually started asking if it was time to go get them yet at 5PM! Syd fell asleep and we struggled to wake her up, but we managed to do so.


It took less than 24 hours for the spoling to begin. saturday we took nonno & nonna for lunch to Cafe Pesto at the bayfront. Then C & I went to the house to keep on working on the floors and bathroom while nonno & nonna took the girls out "shopping". Well, Syd & Hana finally were able to go shopping to Walmart. C & I refuse (as much as possible) to go shopping there (we've actually been there twice since we moved) but n&n promised them that they would take them to get their b-day gifts....



A dream comes true....


The joy reflected in nonno's face, that pretty much sums up the experience of shopping at W..


Singing in the Rain...


Today was off to volcanos national park. It has been raining almost non-stop for 5 days now...of course the weather had to change into this for nonno & nonna. Still we went out to volcanos to show them around.
