Family night.

Last night we had a a Luau themed family night. We invited a newly married couple, Dustin & Allison, over to party with us.

The kids had a blast learning to hula via a DVD from the library. It was a hula workout for beginniners video...they didn't know the difference. Notice Campbell digging for gold. Cute huh? =P




We had fruit salsa & chips and coconut shrimp for appetizers. I made spicy chicken kabobs, beef & pineapple kabobs & fried long rice for dinner. For dessert we had peanut butter & macadamia nut brownies. Here are a few pics a remembered to snap before it was all gone.





Cyra decorated with beach towels, fresh pineapples and check out her toilet paper roll & construction paper palm trees. So cute.



My favorite part was the punch bowl. I froze a little bit of water in a smaller bowl and when it almost frozen, I put a few island figurines. It looked like a little island floating in our punch. If only I had made blue punch!



And after kids went to bed. We enjoyed an "adult dessert".
