"People are often unreasonable, irrational and self centered; forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies; succeed anyway. If you are honest and sincere, people may deceive you; be honest and sincere. What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight; create anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous; be happy anyway. The good you do today, will often be forgotten; do good anyway. Give the best you have and it may never be enough; give your best anyway. In the final analysis, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway." - Mother Theresa

Opening Doors



So this happened...

That there is Mrs. Mona. I worked with her at the Printing Division.. She had to resign due to cancer. #cancersucks She was such a doll to work with. She was always positive and loved to dance and smile.

Notice how in this picture she's posing with a "peace" sign.

Well that's exactly what I'm getting at.

I SAID PEACE!! lol

I've finally hung up the steel toe shoes and said my farewells to the LDS Printing Division. It wasn't easy but it also wasn't hard. Easy because of my why and we all know I function entirely around the kids and my family and what's best for us. Hard because of the many amazing people I worked with. It wasn't easy saying goodbye to everyone but I have to be honest... I am super excited to go full throttle on school and really get it done.

Leroy and I have been discussing this change for awhile and I couldn't be any happier with the choices we've made to finally move our family forward in the right direction.

So in celebration to this change along with many other reasons behind this - we decided to take a weekend vacation to Las Vegas!



We drove out last Thursday and came back Sunday night. It was a much needed get away and I can't wait to book our next little vacation.

Along with our little get away we attended the USA Rugby 7s Tournament. It was held at the UNLV Stadium.



Of course we would support Samoa since the kids are half Samoan. lol I knew absolutely nothing about rugby until this tournament and to be completely honest... I love rugby far more then football. I love how fast paced it all is. There are only 2 halves and each half is only 7 minutes long. Which would make sense since they are play with no kind of padding. It's bone on bone and I couldn't imagine them playing any more then just the 7 minutes before it becomes any more brutal then it already is.

So yes... I love rugby now that I understand the game.



Got to have dinner with Aunt Laulea. It's always great seeing family.



Took the kids to Circus Circus.


Swam at late hours of the night. Which was great cause there was no one else there swimming with us.


Ate twice at the buffet at Sunset Station.

Did lots of shopping and more and more eating. lol

Did we gamble? Yes. Did we win? Yes.

What happens in Vegas. Stays in Vegas. lol



This week has been the week to begin playing catch up on just about everything I fell short with while I was working and the things I couldn't do because I was working.

Staring with... Filing Taxes!! We finally filed the other night and I would say it's not a bad year.
Next yeat will be better.



The kids.. Boy this is big change for them. I stay home with them until Summer Semester starts. I will be applying at the airport so I can try and get us some flying benefits for more vacationing. lol

Tamara - Starts gymnastics on Monday and I can't wait to see what she thinks about it. She is always flipping everywhere we go. So I showed her what gymnastics was on youtube and asked if she wants to try a class for little girls like her and she said yes. So here we go.

Henele - I need to find a cross country team for him. Anything to keep his energy down. Like way down. It would help out everyone a whole lot. lol

Other then that. They are both doing well in school and are ready to venture into newer worlds this life has to offer.


We are still going strong. Taking every day one at time and simply - try.
We are happy. =)

Welp... Until next time.

XOXO Via
