We went to a free band concert and toured the kings palace
while in Honolulu with Dave and Janice.

They made Turkeys for Thanksgiving

Elder Allen performed the baptism.  We only had one jump suit so they had to share.  The girl on the left is Annarosa and she was not sure she wanted to be baptized because she did not think she could get to church all of the time.  But when she was listing to the District leader interview her half-sister she decided she wanted to be baptized also. So they shared jump suits one dry and the other wet.  It was a special occasion for us since we have been teaching them for over four months.

The non-member dad came to the baptism and the confirmation. He lives next to the other family in the picture they are inactive members but seem to come to baptisms and confirmations.
