On Thursday we had our Relief Society Birthday Celebration. Three great dances were performed. We had Poi Ball dancing, a Native American dance, and a Tongan dance. We have some great talent in our ward. I was part of the Poi Ball dance. We practiced for about a month. Although we were still were not perfect, we had a lot of fun learning the dance.
Friday was our busiest day. First, Brendan and Dylan visited our local fire station.
Next we went on a whale watch. We saw some amazing whales but I was only able to photograph a tail. It was windy, can you tell?
Straight from the whale watch we went to a scout eagle ceremony. It was a Tongan who earned his eagle so they went all out. We are still not used to all the Tongan food so some of us just stuck to the salad and pig but as you can see Dylan thoroughly enjoyed his dessert.
Saturday we took a hike to twin falls. We found a rope swing for those that dared enough to jump in the cold water. Let's just say I held Jacob. I am not sure why Jordan brought his guitar on a hike but he kept us entertained. 
Since he had a friend birthday we had a mini family birthday on the Sunday before his birthday. Since I was not able to find a pinata, I decided to make one. It wasn't a good idea to start one the night before because it needed more time to dry. It started out as a soccer ball but Richard decided to duck tape it so it wouldn't fall apart very easily. It ended up looking like a ball of trash but oh well, no one cared, they just wanted the candy.
On the actual day of his birthday, the excitement of the day had worn off. It was his third party. He did however enjoy his presents and the cake he asked for (lemon cake with lemon slices and his name written on it).
