25th Anniversary Luau

Happy Anniversary to my parents! They celebrated 25 years of marriage by throwing a Luau last Friday night.

My Bitos were here from Utah! They helped SO much.

I'm so grateful for them.

Franco's new Hawaiian friend...

Kimmey & her friend Celeste danced some Tahitian for us. They were excellent!

Ellie taught my sister Ruth and me an entire hula dance to a song called, "Sing Me A Song Of The Islands" in 2 days~ a total of 5 hours. That shows how great a teacher she is.

My parents are incredible and I owe my life to them.

They have sacrificed so much and continue to sacrifice every day to create an eternal family.

My mom, Julia, is vibrant, full of life and creativity~ her strong intelligence is apparent from the moment you meet her. She is loyal and kind and is the most considerate person I know.

She is my role model and friend.

I strive every day to become like her.

My dad, Juan, is calm and collected, but is always up for some fun.

He is very knowledgeable and loves challenges and researching things he finds interesting.

His love for education he passed on to me, for which I am grateful.

Thank you, Papi and Mami for your examples.

Now, let's start planning your 50th anniversary!
