MARCH of this year marked several memorable events- The first being our friends Antone and Dionne (that I mentioned in yesterday's post) had their daughter Malia dedicated at their church. Matt and I were able to stand up with them and be part of their story.....We have the privilege of being a part of 'Lilys' life as her Uncle and Auntie and thank God for her.

MARCH also marked the devastating earthquake/tsunami that hit Japan........The physical effects were felt by us on Kauai in that those of us living in low lying areas close to the ocean had to evacuate due to a tsunami warning issued- Our family, along with several guests that were staying at the main house evacuated. (For more info and pics you can read THIS BLOG POST)
APRIL- The weather on Kauai was changing and warming up, Our Friends John and Val had their baby (Jayme Girl!!!!), My Oklie turned 3, and we decided- as a family- to make a trip back to Oregon to celebrate Easter and make some final decisions whether we wanted to stay in Hawaii or move home.....It was on this trip to Oregon that our attorney from Hawaii called to tell us about Heather our birth mom-
