Merry Christmas Part II

After we opened gifts at home, we spent the rest of Christmas day at Nana & Papa Itokazu's house to open the rest of our gifts.  Here is Nana & Papa enjoying their "beautiful" mugs given by Elle.

Elle often likes to think of herself as "Princess Aurora".

Elle and her new buddy WALL-E and her Uncle Alex!

We wish you a Merry Christmas!

We had a very good Christmas this year! Elle got lots and lots of presents!! We started off our morning eating homemade pancakes made by Huy. After we digested, the fun began!

Here is Elle showing off how soft her new elephant towel is that her daddy bought her.

Itokazu Christmas Eve 2008!

This year my Uncle Kiyo planned the Itokazu Family Christmas party at Natsunoya Tea House in Kalihi. It was really nice! It was so much fun to dress up and play games with family we don't get to see throughout the year.The next generation....

This is a great tradition we do every year. We take the Itokazu Family portrait. I love this because you get to see how everybody grows each year and all of the wonderful new additions to the family.

"There is no place like home, there is no place like home..."

This year Elle was Miss Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. Of course she has no clue who "Dorothy" is but I knew she'd make a perfect Dorothy, especially in her Ruby Red Shoes!

After all of her trekking, Elle cautiously checked her candy with her Auntie Amber.

Happy Birthday Elle!

This year we celebrated Elle's 2nd birthday at Farrell's Hawaii in Pearlridge Center.

It was an intimate affair, perfect for a little girl turning "2".
