What a nice surprise.....

After Friday night chat, which is really

3pm in the afternoon in Hawaii, I got

ready again and went back to the big

mall to see my little granddaughter Kayla,

age 7, dance hula on stage. Good-sized

crowd, too.

She was a doll, smiling throughout all her

dancing and swaying those little hips wide, as if

she really had some on her tiny body.

And what was also cute and charming was the

3 old men who danced 2 hulas. They were good,

and could move as fast as the 20-year old guys.

I know they were at least 65 yrs old plus, lol.

They were fully clothed in aloha attire, as opposed

to authentic "pick a butt, any butt" barely there

loincloth wear. hee hee. that, you would only

see in the major hula festivals.

Well my added surprise was that I did not expect

to see that many extended family members show up

for the program. Usually only 10 of us go, but

this was more like 30. It was really sweet to

see everyone!

Kayla loved that, too, as she received more money

that way. (yes, we spoil them after performances)

After the program, we took over the food court.

See ya!!

Hugs,

Cindy

Awww, Cin, she sounds so cute! Sort of like Lilo in "Lilo and Stitch"! LOL! I'm really glad you all had some fun, you guys needed that right now!

Take care and give Kayla a hug for me!

Sounds so cute! So fun! I sure miss those days of watching the kids perform like that! Maybe the little grandsons will do something someday!

Yay for Kayla!

Yes, Red, would be good if your 2 little ones

could start something at age 3 or 4. So much

for them to do!

thanks!!

hugs,

Cindy

Oh how sweet... I bet she was a little doll!!! I think that is so great that so many of you went to watch her also.. I bet it did make her day!

I bet she felt like a queen for the day with all you celebrating afterwards... so special!

Hugs, Lor

And I keep thinking about the gentlemen who were dancing;

great activity for senior citizens. There was also a group

of ladies in their 50's doing a few hulas; very admirable!!

Hugs, and thanks!
