May 10, 2020

Today is Mother's Day and my 12th wedding anniversary. So crazy how fast time flies by, makes me kind of sad. Started off a bit rough with our car dying on Fitu while he went to pick up our dessert for our Mother's Day get together. We tried to forget it and just make the best of the situation for now. Family came over and we enjoyed a delicious feast and some amazing desserts to follow. I always love being around family.

I'm so grateful for my mom. She seriously is one strong badass little lady! She raised 13 kids and we had a good childhood because of her. She always had our back and spoils us to this day. I just hope for Royal to be just as strong and amazing when she gets older. I just thank Heavenly Father that she is still here with us and I hope and pray for many more years with her.


I never knew I wanted to be a mother when I was younger. After high school, I almost thought I didn't even want kids...even after I got married. Fitu always knew he wanted kids and I was just so into life that I didn't even care until I actually became a mother. When my daughter was born, she changed my life. My kids make me a better person and I would give my life for them. They make life fun and worth living. I am so grateful that Heavenly Father trusted me to be a mom. My greatest blessings call me mom and I love it. Motherhood is awesome!


I can't believe Fitu and I have been married for 12yrs. It has been a rollercoaster! We pretty much grew up together and didn't know what we were in for when we got hitched but you live and you learn. We've been through it and we're still going strong. My favorite thing about him is how great of a dad he is. Our kids love him and that makes my heart happy. He's a good man. He loves me so much. He shows me every day and he tries really hard for us. He's a hard worker and is never selfish when it comes to money. We still have long amazing conversations and it's so nice to be able to open up to him still after all these years. He's very lovey dovey...I'm all for it lol. We still always kiss and hold hands and each other. I love how he loves me and I love loving him. Cheers to many more years baby! 🍹💝



Movie Night

The kids have been bugging us to have a movie night outside with our projector so we finally went and bought a screen. Took us about a year lol...We let them pick their own snacks from the dollar store and then came home and watched the new Dr Doolittle. It was a great movie. We all enjoyed it. I love family time. 💚


Sweet 16

Timena-Vai turned 16 on May 3rd! Since we're still in quarantine she had a special weekend celebration. Aunty Nea threw her a surprise "movie theater" themed party on Saturday and it was super cute. Sunday was her actual birthday and Tubba girl made her a beautiful cake and they just sang to her. Then Monday was her surprise "drive by" birthday. It was so fun and cute. Everyone decorated their cars and made posters and drove around her honking and the music was blasting. She looked so beautiful and the reaction on her face was priceless!

Mena is the oldest grandchild and it's crazy that she's 16 now. Makes me sad that all the kids are growing up so dang fast. She has always been a sweet person but she just keeps getting better every year. I'm so proud of the woman she is turning out to be. We are so grateful for this girl. 💜



It's Great to be Eight!

Raider was baptized on March 28th by his uncle Vika. Even though it was quarantine style and we couldn't have more than 10 people there, it was beautiful. We missed all our family and wish they could've all been there with us to celebrate my son but there was nothing we could do about it. It was still a special baptism and then after we just ordered some pizza, wings, salad, and drinks and went to Vika's house to chill. Nea made dessert and then we called it a day. It was nice and simple and my son was happy and that's all that mattered.

Mr & Mrs Te'o

So on April 25, 2020 my little sister got married! After 12 years I am finally not the only girl in my family that is hitched. I'm so happy for her and her husband and their beautiful baby, Blu Alexis. I'm glad she found a good man to spend her life with and I wish them all the happiness in the world.
