New 08-09 School Year

Hi everyone,
The 08-09 school year has begun and Myra is in the 2nd grade and Emma began Kindergarden. So far so good. Yesterday Kara hung out with mom all day and we took her to the ear nose throat specialist where she had both tubes removed. A hearing test was conducted and she passed with flying colors for both ears. We were thrilled at the great news. She was such a sweet little angel during the whole visit and I was so proud of her! This past Monday I returned home from Hawaii. My parents and I went to see my youngest brother Richard get married. We also visited The AZ Memorizl at Pearl Harbor, Punch Bowl, The PCC, North Shore, Dole Pineapple plantation, The LDS, Buddist, and Fijian temples. We had a great time together. To be honest it was very similar to Costa Rica except for English speaking. Ryan is working harder than ever beginning his 4th year at Dobson. He was recently promoted to be the Department Chair of the World Languages Department. Our online business GoLDSPlaques.com has really picked up and we are really busy with all the work from it. I am enjoying the break from ASU and am scheduled to start the next semester to take 3 of the 5 remaining classes in my program. I hope all is well with you and we would love to hear from you if you have a minute.
