Reflection of Aloha

Last weekend me and my wife had an opportunity to spend the day with our extended ohana and I have to say that I had a marvelous time. Normally I find that most parties I attend are for the most part pretty boring, but this weekend made me feel sort of blessed to be in the company of such wonderful people. Its amazing how Aloha unfolds and when you least expect it to.
 
We had a guest (shown above) that attended named Ipo Kahaialii and she so gracefully volunteered to entertain with Hawaiian story and song, she was captivating to say the least. Mahalo Ipo

Of course you can not have the ohana gathered together without having food, the party was a pot-luck so we got to eat grinds of all authenticity, with huli huli chicken being one of the main courses, prepared by chef Don of course!

And you have to love the aloha spirit of the girls who normally dance for Tipanie O Patitifa, they have a passion for Hawaiian culture and dance that is unsurpassed, fire up the ukuleles and its on folks.

Of course not only people get in on the action, our pets are also ohana. Pictured above is "little bit" and Coco the cockatoo whom is a real playa in disguise.

Of course we have to post one of those food shots that everyone loathes. George came late to the party citing work, though I think he got stuck in a tanning booth, so the backyard paparazzi snapped a picture of Don serenading George during dinner. We love you George, really bruddah.

Quintinn Holi also attended and shared some wonderful Hawaiian stories as well, but I think I will save some of that for another post. Not to risk repeating myself but it was a simply wonderful day and a rare occasion to actually relax and not discuss work at all. Speaking of work, the holiday season is already upon us and I need to focus on getting our Hawaiian Aloha shirts inventory up to speed, so my Blog posts are going to be sporadic at best.

Sign up for our email notifications with the form, which is to your left, and be amongst the first to see some of the new designs and products that we will be striving to release in time for Christmas.

God bless and Mahalo!
