CONGRATS Mr. & Mrs. Robinson!! Laie Beach, Hawaii

One thing that was really important to do while in Hawaii was to get some good family pictures. I think it has been, well since I was about 5 or 6 since we have had a real family picture. And since I am paparazzi mom, I of course wanted some good ones!(Paparazzi meaning when I pick up prints at Costso, the photo guy does not hand me an envelope- he hands me a box! Literally!!) My dad scouted out the perfect location-Pounder's Beach-great backdrop. So we are all matching, starts to rain on the way there. Still raining as we wait in the car while my Aunt Debbie & fiance Tatsuo talk to who we thought was the photographer. We get out hoping it will let up and we see Debbie pulling these incredibly gorgeous leis out of the trunk. How perfect! Then she says "Surprise!! We are getting married!!" We were TOTALLY SURPRISED!! The scenery was stunning! As if by divine intervention-I'm positive, the clouds parted and the rain stopped. It was a traditional Hawaiian ceremony during which they explained a little about culture, traditions, etc. It was so special, so intimate. I felt so honored to be apart of this. I love our "Auntie Mom" so much! It fills my heart with indescribable joy that Debbie has found Tatsuo. He is an incredible person, probley the most kind, accepting, positive person I have ever met. I can't wait to get to know him even better. After the ceremony we took pictures, I can honestly say it was SO FUN! Maybe it was the atmosphere, the place, the wedding, I felt so incredibly close to each member of our family. We laughed, we played, we got all sandy & wet, the smiles were not posed but totally genuine. I will never forget those feelings, the immense love I felt, or....Landon's model poses with all the little boys joining in...or the "other pose"(see pic of Billy & Landon(enough said-we were all laughing hysterically)! As we were getting in the car to leave it started to rain again. I was so GRATEFUL and humbled for this incredible experience. We are so blessed, Thank you Father....
