King Kamehameha Day 2015
Sedate Summer Afternoon Tea
Some of the Hitty sisters delight in sedate activities on Summer afternoons, drinking cups of tea and wearing dainty pinafores.
Muumuus and Lei
But it is June 11th, so some of the others others are having a beach Party in their new Hawaiian dresses and lei.
flowers and bright cloth
Today is King Kamehameha day in Hawaii! People there are draping statues of King Kamehameha with lei and having Hula competitions
Cast away!
The Quimper Hittys are having other kinds of fun – a couple of the adventurous ones were temporarily cast away on a tide pool rock…
Polynesian Outrigger Canoe
…and they admired the model double-outrigger Polynesian Canoe (wishing it were slightly larger so they could have a little sail in it).
Not a Sedate Summer Afternoon Tea
They all had a great time!

Happy King Kamehameha Day!
Quimper Hittys 
What a lovely life the QHs and QH human family lead….celebrations abound, color, nature and smiles. Thanks for letting us in on another day in your lives.
I love finding interesting things to do, and the Hittys like to help bring them to life!
I love that the Quimper Hittys always have a celebration happening in their cupboard and on their beach. The perfect way to live! Beautiful 🙂
Thanks, we have fun, almost every day!
What a fun entry in the on going Quimper HItty adventures. A new holiday to learn about and wonderful Hittys in Island frocks…what could be better?
Ah any excuse to go to the beach, and this seemed like a glorious day and worthy of a new frock or two!
I just adore your two Aotearoa Kauri twins! They are wonderful. Who carved them?
Lovely adventures from the Quimper household as per usual!
Thank you – I carved Agathe and TC Vollum carved Opal – they both came from the same block of wood, and are inseparable!
They are both so similar! As you know I love them both – I would do so probably however they looked, being Kauri or course, but they are both very special and I was so pleased to hear that they could remain inseparable. Such a great pair.
Lovely day of fun on the beach – I never tire of seeing the “moods”. Thank you!
You are welcome – you never know what the girls are going to get up to while I’m at work, but usually something interesting!!
They sure would be cute dancing “Little Brown Girl” Hula! I still remember how to dance it from 1962! Love their celebration! Thank you for their stories that brighten our days!
Thanks, and you are welcome – I enjoy following the Hittys around with my camera, and taking pictures of fun they get up to!
beautiful new frocks, the leis are delightful. I’ll have to show the outrigger sail to my sailmaker son. Oh, to sail away for a year and a day!
The girls are happy with them, and very appreciative of the willing sacrifice of their favourite photographer’s Hawaiian shirt!
