ELDER CHRISTOPHER CALEB COSTALES

Here are some recent pictures of my brother Elder Costales (CALEB) on his mission. He is currently serving in Philippines Butuan Mission and has been there for 4 months now.

We love him and are so proud of him!

-HAPPY MOTHER's DAY-

To our moms and all the mommies in the world...HAPPY MOTHER's DAY!!
WE LOVE YOU!!

and for the mommy-to-be...

--I got a rose from our ward and yummy chocolates from Jamie..:) This is my first Mother's Day..not that official yet but it's been great. I'm so excited to be a mommy!!!!




**yup..jamie actually wrote dad instead of DAY..too excited for Father's Day...i guess. lol

then..we also visited Jamie's mom for dinner. :)

-fun Saturday-

why??...cuz of the ff:

I got the chance to witness a Filipino Parade @Waikiki....It was kinda cool...and it really made me miss home...A LOT!!!






Then...we got some of our friends (the AUNAs and MITTONs) from Laie come to our apartment for dinner. It was a fun get-together, the food we had was really YUMMY.. and we got to talk about a LOT of stuff. These guys used to be our neighbors when we were still in TVA (BYUH Temple View Apartments). We missed them a lot most especially having dinner events like this (a common thing in TVA).

Sooo into READING???!!

If you know me well, you'd know that I'm not really into books...but Jamie...is the total opposite. He loves reading (it's one of his hobbies) and has been trying to get me into doing such. He has given me a bunch of books..and most of them I haven't even finished yet (I'm really lazy). Recently he thought it would be a good idea to read a book together..So we did. We are currently reading these two books..

and..


the book where the movie "THE OTHER SIDE OF HEAVEN" was based.

To his surprise...and most especially to MY SURPRISE..IT WORKED. I've never really liked reading books like these but the stories of these ones really got my attention..I was so into it that I tried reading ahead of the part we read together. haha.

All I can say is that I love reading these books with Jamie and we can't wait to finish it!!!

Jamie's Chow Mein..:)

yup..Jamie made Chow Mein for dinner and it was YUMMY!!!

I'm starting to think that he's a better cook than I am. haha!!

-Wayne's Day!-

WAYNE is 22!!!

This past weekend we celebrated my brother Wayne's bday. He just turned 22 this past May 2. We are sooo getting old. Anyways..he told us that he just wanted to come to town and spend the weekend with Jamie and I. He prefers having it that way than having a party. So..we did what he requested. We planned a couple things we could do that Saturday and we all had fun.


First, we went to BISHOP MUSEUM..:) Jamie and I have been there before but this was Wayne's first time. The featured exhibit was about the CIRCUS so we were able to try some stunts, tricks and even play dress-up.





























Then..we ate dinner @ MAX, a Filipino Restaurant. We had Crispy Pata, Kare-Kare and Bistek. It was really yummy!!!






Wayne talking to Mama and Papa.



The next day we took him to Stake Conference with us. Later that day drove him back to Laie..and his friends surprised him with a birthday dinner. :)

Hope you had fun WAYNE!!
WE LOVE YOU!!!
