Tsunami Entertainment....

Sat Morning, woke to a phone call @ 3:30AM. There was a huge earthquake in Chile and a Tsunami could possibly be on its way. We live in Hawaii....this occurs ALOT. most of us, don't BLINK when we hear it..THIS WAS DIFFERENT. Our Sirens, that are meant for terrorist warnings, Tsunami warnings....WARNING..went OFF. I have been here 16 years, and the ONLY TIME, these sirens go off is every 1st of the month. (for testing purposes). so there is no panic, no scary feeling...UNTIL NOW. This time, not only did we BLINK when they told us to get to high grounds...we listened!!

There is not much to do during the "waiting" of a Tsunami...most congregate and have a party ( no MATTER WHAT TIME IT IS...ITS A REASON TO PARTY)!! We went to a park , played soccer, volleyball, had races against each other....colored, I spy..boredom set it after a while. So Tiki entertained us. I have another video I will post next couple days....my silly family!!!

Ok, this is fascinating. We're talking about waiting out a Tsunami and what I felt watching that video was tremendous peace. Your voice oozed peace. Tiki's dance was so gentle and Alika's song was so soothing. Hawaii is such an interesting place. I think you must just draw peace from the water or something. God is all over this video.

Love it! So thankful you all are ok, glad you took to higher ground. I think thouse are some of the best times, when we are called to stop what we are doing, and bond as a family. And like Candy said, your and Alika's voices are so soothing, bringing calm to Tiki and a serious situation.

Pray for good weather when we visit in May. I'm soooo excited to finally meet you all!!!
