... for our family and close friends to follow us in this "DoCToR in the MaKiNg" journey and catch a little glimpse of our ups and downs, trials and triumphs, and everything in between.
THANK YOU for all the Love and Support. We know we have a lot of people cheering us on.
We know our Heavenly Father's hand is in this journey because we have been so BLESSED! BLESSED BEYOND MEASURE!!
I'm far from being as good as I want to be and I should be better. I need a lot of practice!!
Here's a confession: I wish I was sooo good at photography that I could do photography ALL the time and get paid doing it. It's what I love to do! I wish I had a lot of people ask me to take their pictures and want to pay me because they fall in love with their pictures. I wish I had more time and practice to improve.
M.I.A.... And there has been A LoT of AcTioN!! April, May, June, July, August and September. Oh My!
This blog has been out of commission for some time now. Half a year. It's been so Cray-Cray around here. We are still trying to adjust to the changes our family is experiencing. We are TEAM NO SLEEP!! Eh! (This is long over due. I still have photos to add, but there's no time now.. I'll add them asap)
Here's a quick update:
Julius graduated in May from SLCC.
He graduated with high honors while working, fulfilling multiple callings (he probably has the most callings in our ward), taking care of our 3 beautiful babies, and making me happy.
We SuPpOrT him more than 100%
Our poor Fipe had surgery on her foot and had a cast on for a couple weeks before summer. Her cast did not stop her or slow her down at all. Her cast had multiple holes and cracks in it, so we had to duct tape it so it would stay together.
I got a Jay-Ohh-Bee! I work while my children are sleeping... well, when they "should" be sleeping. We decided that working nights would be the best thing for us right now. We didn't want to be a burden to anyone, annoy people by asking them to watch our children ALL the time, and we didn't want to depend on anyone but OURSELVES! Our poor children have to deal with a grouchy, tired-all-the-time mom. It is hard working nights and taking care of my babies and their needs. Sacrifice!!
Julius quit work so he could focus on school, volunteering, shadowing, leadership,and everything else that will help him get into med school. He is doing so well in school and everything else!! I am so lucky and blessed to have a SMART-INTELLIGENT-DEDICATED husband. With everything that he has to do, he still makes time to play with our children and listen to my stories of ALL the little things our children do during the day. I have to tell him everything!!
During the Summer we took our babies out as much as possible. We went swimming, we went to different parks to play, we went to free lunch when we woke up on time, we went on rides at carnivals and hollywood, and well, we spent a lot of time outside in the HEAT!
We had a little get together with some cousins. AlJay and Sandra moved to Utah from Hawaii. Jamie was visiting from Hawaii, Rachel from Idaho, Lapreal from Sandy, Daryl from Cedar City, and Ary all the way from Magna. We rarely see our cousins. It was nice getting together.
This is just 1/20 of our cousins. Our reunion is next year here in Utah. YaY!! Pictures will be up next year for sure.
July
Uncle Paul returned with honor from the Texas Houston Mission.
It was such a humbling experience listening to him bare his testimony before he was released. I know he was a powerful and spiritual missionary. His testimony has strengthened mine.
Malofou was a SUPER STAR! She loves performing in front of people.
These are the little dances for Uncle Paul.
We celebrated Tafiti's birthday. We went to Lagoon with some cousins and on his birthday weekend we had games and a BBQ with our families.
We went to our ward camp on my nights off. Our children loved it. They love being outdoors and out in nature.
August
Our little family had an adventure as we participated in the Color Run. It was so much fun and colorful.
