We popped firecrackers at home this year. I can't remember the last time I spent new years with Jesse, he worked every new years eve when we were living in Las Vegas. Leva didn't like it so much. He loves lights, but doesn't like the sound because it's so loud. He was out with us when we lit the firecrackers but after a little while he went in the house because he was freaking out a little too much and watched thru the window. Ke'ala didn't care about the noise. She just sat there like a bump on a log. It started to get really loud so we covered her ears. Eventually, Leva came out and was brave enough to hold one of the sparklers. In this picture, a firecracker went off and you could see the nervousness in his eyes. He dropped it and sat next to me for the rest of the night.
We also roasted a pig. Leva helped to kill and roast it. It was pretty funny. I thought he would freak out, I actually didn't want him out there when it happened but my dad just went ahead and did it without giving us a moments notice. He took it well. After they killed the pig, Leva kept saying, "mom stinky pig sleeping?" and I told him yes the pig was sleeping. My 6 yr old nephew was out with him and Leva kept telling him that the pig was sleeping. My nephew looked at him and said, "The pigs not sleeping leva, it's DEAD!" And of course the conversation went back and forth between the both of them that the pig was sleeping or the pig was dead. These kids are so funny.
