30 DAY CHALLENGE CONTINUES

SOMEONE YOUR PROUD OF

I'm very proud of my little Sini beans. She is so smart and seems to catch on to things so fast.  A couple of days ago she was crawling around her brother, and I was wondering what he was doing, and it looked like she was trying to teach her brother how to crawl....lol...In the picture if you notice she's holding a baby....man, we went to my sister in law's house and all of sudden she came down with this doll and a little baby bottle.....she never really was into dolls, but right when she got the baby, she started to feed the baby...lol...we were so surprised of how well she treated her baby! Shows how much kids learn from their parents. My Sini beans is growing so much and sometimes I can't believe it. I'm so proud of my lil beanie girl of what a GREAT BIG SISTER she is to her brother Teiko!!!

DAY 7

"SOMEONE/SOMETHING THAT HAS IMPACTED MY LIFE"


From as long as I can remember, my dad has ALWAYS been there for me. He may not be perfect, and may not do things that probably get on my nerves, but I can honestly say that my dad has truly impacted my life.  From my youth softball games, to jr. jazz games and basically all my high school sports, my dad was ALWAYS there. Screaming and cheering for me. I remember when I was up to shoot some free throws and all I can hear was him screaming....."YOU BETTER MAKE IT OR ELSE YOUR WALKING HOME....LOL" and then all of a sudden I can just hear everyone laughing. That's the type of person he is, the one to ALWAYS make people laugh. Whenever I was in trouble, he'd be the one to always run to my side and my mom would be the one on the side saying to just leave me. My dad has ALWAYS been there at times of need and struggle, and at times of joy and celebration. I hope to one day pay him back for all that he has done for me. Nothing in this world could ever change the way I feel about my dad. I truly am a DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL.....I love my dad to the fullest and wouldn't exchange him for anything. I love you dad and thanks for ALL that you have done for me!!!

DAY 6

"A HOBBY I HAVE"


I've always defined hobbies as something that I like to do on my spare time. When I was little, my mom would just put us in all these things to keep us occupied. From piano lessons, guitar lessons, voice lessons, dace lessons and even group performance....lol...man my sisters and I were so much into sports that we really weren't into all that. We just wanted to play ball and that's it. I now know why she did that, and I'm so grateful for all that she did. It taught me a lot. I wish I still had the hobby of playing piano, playing guitar and singing, but I don't. I only play on rare occasions, and I sing but only in the showers and in our FHE....(and trust me, it does not sound pretty combined with my husband's amazing voice...lol) So, a hobby in which I have is playing volleyball. I may not be the best at it, but I sure love to play it!! I'm developing a hobby of cooking. I love to look up recipes and experiment them out. We love getting chicken, not only because it's good, but because it's freaking cheap....lol

DAY 5

"PICTURE OF SOMEWHERE YOU'VE BEEN."

I lived in the Dominican Republic for 18 months. One of the BEST times of my life. 
My first area....LAS CAOBAS!!
Hurricane right before I left home. He tore down one of the main bridges.  
This is what happens when it's hurricane season...lol


If I would've never served a mission in the Dominican Republic or anywhere else, I don't think I would even be where I am today. I love the Dominican people and I love love love Dominican food. The Dominicans just reminded me of our Polynesian people and how much they respected and loved everyone. Although they had nothing they would ALWAYS try and give something. I hope one day to return for a visit with my family, well maybe just the hubby and I since it is a third world country...lol. Living there taught me so much about life and responsibilities, never will I forget my country the D.R.!!!!

DAY #3

"A HABIT THAT i WISH i DIDN'T HAVE"


i wish I didn't have the habit of PROCRASTINATION. I tend to leave things for the last minute or I would just put what I need to have done aside. Procrastination on losing weight, Procrastination on paying bills, Procrastination on goals, etc etc etc. I also hate the fact that I have the habit of hiding my anger and feelings. I tend to let things build up and keep things to myself. I know it's not healthy, but I've always had this habit. I wish I was the type to just be blunt about things and say how I feel . I guess this just makes me think to myself, that I really need to work on this. Who knows when I'll blow up and hopefully I don't...lol

DAY#2

"A PICTURE OF SOMETHING I CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT....."

I can't live without my Eternal Companion. He makes me a better person each and every day. My weaknesses are his strengths, and I truly am grateful for ALL that he has done for me and for being the BEST DAD in the world. I love love love my Sioape!!!
My oldest Makasini Tanumia Fonua  is such a blessing in my life. She seems to amaze me sooo much as she tends to grow. If she knows I'm mad at her or yelling at her, she ALWAYS knows how to make me smile and laugh and stop me from yelling at her even more. She is sooo love-able and just ALWAYS puts a smile on dad and mom's face. I love her hugs and kisses, and I even love it when she sneaks into our room at night to sleep on our bed and scares the heck out of me....lol....I love my baby girl and I CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT HER!!! 
My little FETI boy Siosiua Teiko Fonua. We just call him Teiko, and I just call him Teiks. My little cuddly fat bear.  My Teiks is growing way too fast for me. He's already teething and already saying MAMA....He can eat like crazy (just like his daddy) and he just loves to be held and cuddled. The doctor said boys need more loving when they're babies, and she was right. Teiks does need more loving and I guess that's he is a MAMA's BOY....I love my Teiko and I ALWAYS tend to give in when he cries and cries and no one will pick him up. He loves his sister and I'm sooo grateful for my little boy. I LOVE YOU TEIKS AND I CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT YOU EITHER!!






My Sisters and my Pa. I love my sisters, they are my best friends for  eternity. They always are there for especially My dad. My dad is my #1 Fan and will do anything (and I MEAN ANYTHING) to help us with whatever!!! My Dad is not perfect, but we are truely daddy's girls....I love my sisters, brothers, mom and dad and I cannot live without them either. They always are there for me as well, and I cannot see my life without them.  (I didn't have a picture of my whole family so I copy and pasted from my sis' page...lol)

I was going to make it short and simple for DAY #2 but I guessed wrong. One last thing, I cannot live without the GOSPEL. without the Gospel, I am nothing and My family is not an ETERNAL Family. I'm grateful for the Gospel and that FAMILIES CAN BE TOGETHER FOREVER
