Merrie Monarch parade pics

I didnt want to hijack the hula thread. These pics are from the parade in 2006. Hubby's family had a mounted unit in the parade. We won first place for private mounted unit (Pu'u Moi Ranch). Hubby and son won the pooper scooper prize.

this is my daughter Brie

my daughter Caitlin

the girls with a cousin

and ot. Did you on the Hilo side feel the quake just before 1pm today? It sure spooked my dogs.

OH WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! You and your family Ride;-) Tell me more about the mounted unit's in Hawaii. Mounted unit's are admirable and highly commended in some state's here and I have to say.......beautiful children you have there.


Thank's! I truly enjoyed viewing

mlassi...Beautiful Children...bet their parents are beautiful too. If you come Hilo side this weekend...please give a call. I won't give my phone number out here (who knows what evil lurks in the minds of lurkers...) but I am in the phone book as Carol Noel. We would love to meet you.

In August my son and granddaughter (4yrs.old) will be here and we stay the last 3 days in Kona...can we stop by and meet you on our way around?

Aloha...

mlassi, the girls are drop dead gorgeous! Well done winning first prize, and how wonderful to have your own mounted unit!

No, didn't feel the quake over here on Maui...

Beautiful children you have Mlassi!

The quake shook houses here for about ten seconds.

thanks for all the compliments. my internet is down at home so I using one elsewhere. Carol I dont think we will be getting to Hilo until May. I would love to meet up with you! My inlaws live in Papaikou.

Rachel,
There are several different types of mounted units. The pa'u units are really beautiful. Each unit represents an island and the colors and types of flowers are specific for each island. I'm sure the Merrie Monarch site would have info in much better detail!

Hope my internet gets working soon! Hopefully Monday.

mlassi (say, what is your real name, maskedwoman???), we live in Puna...but we could meet in town or here. Do call when you come over!!!

Thank You mlassi. I will do a search concerning all.

(I went to church early just to get my internet fix... I am so bad...lol)

Great! We cam get Dave and meet in Keaau!!!
