G'day Mate!

We know how much you all love seeing photos!  Since we are in school now, it is getting really hard to post.  But here are a few quick photos we can post with some captions.  We decided to post some photos of Lily and her dolls that she hasn't posted!  Wan Ling woul like to say, "I can't believe Lily hasn't posted these yet!  They are so beautiful."  By the way- Ling and I are writing this together. :D

Hope you enjoy,
Piper and Ling (www.karitokids.com)

Lily with her Karito Kid Piper (me)...  Doesn't Lily look so happy!  I think she is happy to have a doll from a country she has been to and has lived in for a year!  (That would be Aussie Land).

Lily and Wan Ling on Christmas day 2009.  Lily is almost finished Ling's book.  She is reading my book next!

Hey Everyone,
As you know, Lily loves to take photos of us!  She has had photo shoots in the past that haven't quite (unfortunately) made it to this website!  I think Lily plans to use some of them for Old and Recently Old Photos, but here are just a few photos from a shoot in 2009.

I am sure, we will be posting more from other photoshoots, but here are just a few for now.  Maybe this will get Lily to post some of these on her blog and tell a story behind them. :0)

This was taken in Lily's room!  Her one wall was still pink!  (It's purple now). L-r Me, rachel, Marisol and Jess

a nice photo of Marisol.  I love this wall paper.  It does a great job as acting as a backdrop!

a great photo of Loran.  Lily's first MyTwinn doll... her first doll other than BittyBaby, and her other baby dolls.

We truly hope you get off to a great school year!   Our school starts on Monday (cries!).  We will try to post weekly during the school year.

Have a great year!
Jade-Lynne
PS: Look for a post coming up by Loran and Jabrai next week!

Hey Everyone,
We are sorry for not posting very often.  We are really focused on "Back to school" activities.  We are going to me meet our teacher this week.  Rachel and Jess have Miss Ellens for Kindergarten.  I am going into 6th grade, so I have a whole batch of teachers. :)  Some of the other girls still haven't found out who their teacher(s) are. This should be a great adventure. ;0)  We'll be sure to post some pictures in this upcoming week. ;0)

Have a great weekend, 
Kanani. 

Hey Everyone,

We are very sorry that we didn't post yesterday.  We were very busy and unable to post some photos.  On the way home Lily made us stop at a place to look at some scenery.  What she didn't know was that we were already here earlier in the week for camp. :D  WE still had a great time. :)  Here are some photos.

Rachel, big sister Kanani and twin sister Jess are looking "stylish" for Lily's camera. :D

Looking out at the wonderful view.

Rachel on a side trail.

We are sorry for not posting sooner.  Please enjoy your weekend.  WE will post sometime next week.

Until next time,
Kanani, Rachel and Jess

PS:  We have many school related events coming up.  We hope to post these events here.

Hey Girls, As you know we got back from camp yesterday.  We have been just resting and looking at some photos. :)

WE will post some photos tomorrow (we PROMISE)

Kanani, Jess and Rachel

Hi Everyone, Unfortunately this will be our last post (from camp... not forever). :(  This is really sad for us, and we hate to leave. (Now onto the fun!!)

Today we were lucky enough to go berry picking. :)  We got to pick raspberries... LOTS and LOTS of raspberries. :)  Here are some photos!!

Rachel picking berries.

Kanani picking some berries.

Jess reaching for the high berries.

Everyone (L-R: Kanani, Rachel, and Jess with their berries!

Hey Everyone,

We are sorry for the lack of posting.  Today though, we had a really fun activity.  We got to use the scooter, and wheelchair. :)  That was definitely a high-light of the day!  It was so fun.

We got to learn traffic rules, and how to be safe... we didn't have helmets, so it is kind of contradicting, but it was still a good lesson. ;0

Unfortunately,there were only 2 things (a scooter and a wheelchair), so one of us had to watch.  We got to help Rachel and it felt so good to be helping our sister.

Here are some photos of our day.

Jess on the scooter and Rachel in the wheelchair

Rachel on the scooter (and me helping) and Jess trying out the wheelchair.  "How can you stand this Rachel?", asked Jess.  "I don't know.  I just don't know any different I guess.", replied Rachel!  Definitely a great conversation going on there. :)

Rachel on the scooter (Jess helping), and me in the wheelchair.  That was hard work. :)

me on the scooter.  that was definitely an experience... no more said. :)

I hope you enjoyed the photos. :)  Today was definitely fun.  That might have been the most fun day I have had at camp this week.  Unfortunately camp is over on Sunday and I haven't heard anything about extending it. :( 
Have a great day,
Kanani

Hey Everyone,

Today we helped to clean the forest that is near Pine Lake.  It was an awesome experience and I even got to help out. :)  As you know I am in a wheel chair because my legs don't work, and I rarely get to go in the woods because it isn't made for a wheel chair. :(  Today though, was different. :)

Today we had to weed the trail (which is hard work) and pick up litter. :)  You won't believe some of the items we found.  We found a foot ball, and a lot of bottles!  We put them all off to the side for compost.  Here is a photo:














I can't believe how much work we did today and how much fun we had!  It was such a great day and you got to go away with the feeling of helping out the community and others. :)

Have a great day,
Rachel

Hi!  This is Marisol, and this is my first time posting on here... but I'll give it a go. :) We miss our campers a lot, who are in Pine Lake but we are glad that they are having a blast, and that they are at least calling us (sometimes) and writing us letters!

School starts soon. :(  I am not really looking forward to it, but I guess we will all have to adjust.  I am going into Middle School this year, which is sort of scary. :)  But there are a lot of us who are ... It is so weird to be done with something... I know I should be so excited but I'm not!! Really I'm not at all... I liked AGP academy.  I guess I will technically still be in AGP... but I will be in a different building which is scary!!

Hopefully the campers come home soon, but they really want camp to be extended once again to Wednesday the 10th... 

I hope everyone has a great day!  Check out the pattern Lily got for our new shirts on the main page... also check out this weeks' clue...

Marisol... :-)

Kanani's flowery hair tie... made by Jess (crocheted)

Hey Everyone,
Today we learned got to learn how to crochet!  It was really cool, and really fun and easy!  I just made sure it was loose so I could see the loop on the hook go through. :)  I made a string probably 5 feet long. :)  I also made a hair band (with no elastic) that Kanani is modeling in the photo. :)  Once you get your chain as long as you want, just go through another part of the chain and then make another chain and then go through the original chain again (to make the petal part of the flower).  I will make a video sometime with help from Lily on it. :)

After crocheting, we got to make a head band (which Rachel took a photo of mine on me!).  Today's craft activity was so much fun. :)  Kelly has done a great job at picking activities. ;0  I am definitely glad camp was extended until Sunday... hopefully it will be extended again until the Wednesday after Sunday. :) That would be great!!

It was so much fun to be able to learn a new skill at camp. :)

Here is another photo of what we did. :) 

Have a great day,
~Jess~
