stuff from my 1st day in Hilo

In Hilo on my 3rd official day of "vacation." My sis-in-law picked me up from the airport with my nephews in tow. Shosei (3 y.o.) was home sick from school and Choki (11 mo. old) is home cause his sitter is sick. Boy, it never fails, these kids (or someone they know) are always sick everytime I visit.

Sick or not, these kids are the cutest and funnest (even when throwing tantrums...because I'm just the aunty) EVER!!! They also provide me with fun stuff to shoot.

(1) Easter came early for Shosei as he found the bags of Easter goodies his mom bought. (2) The cutest pair of pants ever! Who can resist butt-graphics?!? (3) Choki didn't like the fact that he was being exploited for his pants. (4) My mom's collection of tiny plants. (5) Shosei's newest LEGO creation, he was so proud! (6) Some how one of the toy dinosaurs made a break for it and ended up back in his "jungle home."
