The kids are big now!!

My nieces & nephew, July 4, 2004 at Mokuleia

Clockwise from the top:
Jeff, 22, is still at UH, majoring in art. He and his friends got a place off campus this year, thanks to the dorming shortage. The cool thing was, on move in day he discovered the lower part of the house was rented out to cousins Marc Hino and Nicole Chew!

Ahnya, 25, left Carnegie Mellon to finish her degree at home. She spent her 'fall semester' in India teaching children Spanish--which is bizarre since she speaks French! You can check out her blog and some photos at my Favorite Links page.

Morgen, 15, is still at Punahou and as active as ever in band, Chinese Club, Italian Club, and ROTC--in fact, she is a squad leader and even the big boys take orders from her! She also performs with Shooting Stars at Diamond Head Theatre. When you saw her last year, she was growing her hair long....that's because earlier this year, she cut it off to donate to Locks of Love.

Cymri, 19 (or 20 on December 26), is now at Santa Monica City College. Not sure what she's majoring in yet, but we're very pleased that she's buckled down and doing OK. You can't tell in this photo, but in person, many people mistake Cymri for Ahnya and vice versas. When they are together, it's very hard to tell them apart.

Emi, 26, is totally done with school and now has a federal job related to counseling. She and Ahnya are actually our family's new crop of human rights advocates, which this Democratic group just adores!
