Our family loves to party and we're always lookin' for an excuse to do it! So even though Teyana's birthday was in June, we had scheduling conflict, but were determined to party!! LoL!! So tonight we rented out the Wheeler Bowling and partied up!
Kinda dark my picture! But here's my FAVORITE broteher-in-law, Kula, visiting us from Colorado!! I haven't seen him in over a year and this after he told me he'd be moving back!! LoL!! But man have we missed him!! He's so wild and crazy and brings so much fun to our lives...lol!
Look at how cute Alena is!! She's gettin' so big...seriously, don't let this picture fool ya!! She's about 5 months old now and laughs and smiles all the time. Well, except for when she's sleeping...then she's rough lookin' like her daddy! LoL!!
You know...I've been to how many parties at a bowling alley this past year and I NEVER bowl! There's always so much people and the pressure and I help out and I can't bowl that well...lol!! But some bowled...
Others played those video games...
And then we were silly with the camera again!
And of course the reason we're all here tonight...
Happy Birthday Ta-na-na!!
Well my little sister is turning 23...ouch...the older she gets means the older I get...lol!! So a bunch of decided to head over to Aiea Bowl to celebrate.
Every Friday and Saturday nights they have cosmic bowling from 9 pm - 2 am! It gets pretty crowded and when I called they suggested I come by around 4 pm to put my name on the waiting list for cosmic bowling!! Good thing we did too because at 4 pm we were already like the 12th party on the wait list!! We got there about 8:15 and thought we'd eat first, it was crowded, but we ended up getting our lanes at around 9:40! Not bad since they originally told us it might not be until like 10:30!! Here's some flicks of the night!!
Okay, so if you haven't been to Aiea Bowl lately then you don't know how much of a major renovation has been done. The alley itself is super nice now, the chairs look pretty new and aren't all icky from years of use! The Alley is the restaurant boasting tons of SUPER ONO dishes and the decor is very modern. Whenever there's cosmic bowling they even bring in a DJ...and tonight his mix was super tight!
While I think this is an AWFUL picture of me, I've decided to post it to make a point. See, as you've seen from previous blog entries, I've been playing alot of Wii bowling. Well, scoring a 300 in Wii bowling gives you an imagined self confidence. Not that I thought I'd be able to bowl a 300 tonight, but maybe half...lets just say....no! lol!! On to the food...we were so hungry we just devoured all the food as we got it, so sorry, I had to borrow some pix from the Aiea Bowl website. We had like three orders of the fried calamari, $9.00 This calamari was so good! Very meaty, you know how sometimes its mostly batter? Well not at the Alley!
Oh...and trust me...even though these are the restaurant pictures, the food really did look that good. The price is a bit high, but they do give alot and since all we ate were pupus that night it was all GUUD! Next we had a couple of orders of their garlic fries. It was good! A very strong garlic flavor, but not like you were sweating out garlic or anything. I needed some ketchup to stabilize it though and I love garlic! This picture doesn't do it justice, but I think the price was like $7, but it's for 3/4 pounds!
One of the things that I LOVE at Aiea Bowl is their Tasty Chicken. It's like a garlic chicken and so good...like seriously...the broke da mout kind good...lol!! For $11 you get a huge plate of chicken!
Just imagine this plate, with no rice or salad, way bigger, with 3 times more chicken!! The food was so good we're planning on going back just to eat! Finally we had some sliders, a bit pricey at $14, but it was so good! Not to mention their burgers are handmade...yes! Throw on the cheese and bacon and I'm in HEAVEN!!
We were snapping so many pictures that we did get a bit crazy and ended up in a camera war...
So crazy!! lol!! Here's a few more of the night!
Okay, so here's one where you ask a tipsy Kaimi to take a picture for us, hand him the camera, everyone get in place and this is what he snaps...
He takes a picture of himself!! LOL!! Kaimi you're so silly! But after a few seconds explanation he realizes that we want him to take a picture of the four of us!! lol!!
Here's the old sku crew!! I've known the two ladies on the bottom for over 20 years and me and Tiff are nearly there in years too!! Even after all the years of going to seperate schools, different colleges, boyfriends, jobs, and whatever here we are still close as heck! I love these girls!! A GREAT night...gotta do it again soon!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY EM!!
Today we attended a Christmas Party slash Family Reunion out in Laie. It was a pretty neat experience because not only was it a Christmas party, but we were able to meet some of the family for the first time. Even though we all live on an island there are tons of family still to meet!! The party was held at the BYU Hawaii Campus game room! It was very cool with a bowling alley, pool tables, ping pong tables, XBOX, XBOX360, Guitar Hero, and Dance Dance Revolution. With the exception of the Dance Dance Revolution, everything was included in the cost of the room so we didn't have to pay for anything!
Lunch was AWESOME!! Ham, turkey, garlic shrimp, and loads of other stuff!! We had a gift exchange as well...everyone was supposed to bring a gift valuing around $5. I got a huge bowl! Yes!! And Taei got socks! lol!! It's a funny gift, but he'll get alot of use out of it!
Our family Christmas card...plus and minus a couple!! It was a fun day...we still had drama, but thats expected!! The first of many more celebrations this season!!
So today I came home to find a very excited hubby...and no, not what you're thinking...he was bowling on the Wii and wanted to show me his score. 258, Record (for him)...Ha! In your face! Those were his exact words!! So I was like, Ha? In your face? What are you talking about? He proudly announced that he beat my score...and I was like ummm....no!! My current record was 299 a near perfect game! Sorry hommie, but you're gonna have to get up a little earlier in the day to beat my score! lol!! So of course I had to show him how it's done and this my friends is how you do it...
And that's all I have to say about it...lol!!
