My dad celebrated his 60
th birthday this December, and although we weren't able to get together on the exact day, we were able to congregate in true chaotic
Kahue fashion a few days later.
Dad was in the mood for some Japanese cuisine, so the brood followed along, and we had a fabulous time. (
That's me and Handyman and my Oma and Opa. It's a good thing my Oma is much older, because I think Handyman likes flirting with her!)
Our chef was really funny, and he did some neat stuff for Dad's birthday, like making a "rice cake". He even pretended to spray Dad and my brother
Joshy with ketchup (from a fake ketchup bottle)!
This is a Christmas tree made from rice. Pretty nifty, huh?
Here's the cake that
Angie picked out for Dad. I think the decorator did a fabulous job. Handyman was impressed that she got the correct number of strings on the
Ukelele. (
By the way, did you know that tuning a Uke requires you to sing "My Dog Has Fleas"? It's true!)
From left to right: brother Nathan, Mum, Dad, sisters Lynn and Angie, and Angie's hubby Mike (a.k.a. Elmer
Fudd,
hee hee!)
Oooooo, the food was delicious. I got the
Teriyaki chicken and steak combo, although, technically, all I got was the chicken, as Handyman ate all my steak (as well as his own!).
The two other people that I didn't get in my earlier photo shot was my Auntie Erna and my nephew Caleb (Angie's son).
This is one of my favorite photos of the trip, though.
Banna-boo, as only she could say, handed
Bompy her dolly and said, "Look,
Bompy, just like you!
