Aloha and Happy 60th, Mom and Dad

Helen and I have been in Hawaii with our parents for the past 5 days, working on fixing the condo up. We have made some progress and it looks like the major work will be done in February. The weather has been pretty rainy, off and on, and today is the first day that the sun has shown consistently. We went to Ted's Bakery with Mom and Tat and got the macadamia nut Danish and went to Sunset Beach to watch the surfers. The mauka showers produced a rainbow right over where the surfers were in the water.
Sunset Beach had very few people on it today. The surfing championships ended yesterday. . .they had 25 foot waves for the championship.
Tat came up to North Shore and spent the weekend with us. A friend from home that is going to BYU Hawaii, Kristine Magnusson, joined us for dinner out on the lanai.
For their 60th Anniversary dinner, Mom and Dad chose Lei Lei's on the golf course and Helen Tat, and I joined them. The seared ahi is excellent at this restaurant.
The Hawaii Temple at Laie was having an Open House for the first time since 1978. We all went to the temple and enjoyed how beautifully it has been refurbished.

Thanks for having Kristine over for dinner. It was a special night for her to be with your family. And how wonderful that you were able to go through the temple!
