Aloha Ahi Ahi UFOhana!

From the Medina Ohana to all of you we wish you all a most Prosperous and Joyful of New Years.

It’s the end of the first day of work for the New Year and be a busy one. It’s still kind of hard for me to believe we’ve made it through another year. It was a very significant for me and my family and I know for many of your out there as well. A lot of changes, loved ones that have moved on, second chances for some of us, and meeting new Ohana members here and abroad. Yes a lot of memories to reflect on and many more to make down the road.

This March will mark the UFOhana’s 10th year anniversary. I’m planning on celebrating it on the 12th since it was the Second Friday in March when started this whole adventure.

In keeping with the “New” Theme, I’m proposing we go with “Mele Hou!” or New Songs. In fact maybe we should apply that to the KauKau also and say the Food Theme is “Mea ‘ai ‘ai Hou!”, New Foods. In other words Music and Food that is New to You. Easy, right?

Also, I’d like to bring to your attention a Documentary that our very own Laurette Rodgers was involved in:

www.ASimpleQuestion.org

A documentary about her 4th Grade Class’ efforts to save the Endangered California Freshwater ‘Opae (Shrimp)! Very cool! Maika’i Laurette!

So here as some of first “Ohana Memories” of the year:

A Year of Lost Thoughts,
Gather at the Banks of Time,
Memories recalled.
