day 4 & 5: part 2

so after pearl harbor we headed over to the polynesian cultural center. on the way andrew decided to try and pull off the band on his wrist with his teeth, and well from the picture i'm sure you can guess what happened. yeah, his tooth came out and then proceeded to go down his throat and into his tummy. he cried and cried (and bled and bled, that tooth wasnt quite ready) because he was worried that the tooth fairy wouldn't find him without a tooth and all the way in hawaii. well that really nice tooth fairy found him and left him a nice shark tooth neclace. the pcc was so much fun! wow there was so much to do. there wasn't nearly enough time to fit it all in.

jeff trying to learn how to start a fire in "tonga"

kaylee got to go on stage and learn a dance. she was pretty cute. andrew refused to go on stage, he missed out on the fun. jeff also got to go on stage, but he might kill me if i posted a picture. he was a good sport about it though. i'm pretty sure they couldn't have paid me enough money to go on stage with out a shirt on.

will having fun. by now his tummy had settled a little.

jordanne and i learning how to play this fun stick game. it was really cool. we were pretty good at it.

we all got tattoos. a highlight for andrew.

right when we were about to leave, we realized that our back-pack was missing, with our cameras and the keys to our rental, and our plane tickets back to maui! auugh the panic set in. i ran the entire pcc to look for it. when i was almost all the way through some workers asked if i needed help with anything, and i said yeah, i am looking for a back pack. the kids says, "like this one" and held up ours! i about died! i screamed, "YES". i wanted to give him a big hug, but i thought he might get freaked out!

we barely had time to stop by the temple before we caught our plane. it was an amazing day full of puke, swallowed teeth, and missing back packs, and 3 completely exhausted kids. totally worth it.
