Glad we were able to drive out to celebrate with her. Had so much fun at her pool party!

Wedding Bells

My youngest brother is tying the knot. I can't believe it! It's been a while since I've designed any cards, so I was nervous to start creating these invitations. It was my first time creating this type of layout... which made my nerves kick in even more. I got the printed invites in the mail today and I hope Fatu & Brittainy like them as much as I do.

Back in School & Personalized Bins

The boys went back to school on the 29th of August. I still can't believe that all 3 of them are in full day! The house is so quiet now, it's kinda creepy. We put away all their new clothes in their closets and drawers, but there wasn't really anywhere for all their school supplies. The pencil boxes just aren't big enough anymore and the kitchen drawer where we were storing them is just getting way too cluttered. So I bought these inexpensive bins and decided to spruce them up so that A. we could tell which one belongs to which kid, and B. so that the boys would be excited about keeping their homework supplies organized.

Goosie's bin. The face didn't turn out as big as I wanted, but I was too lazy to redo it.

This is how big I wanted the face on the front, but it got cut off on my vinyl sheet. So I just threw it on the back of the bin.

Angry Birds for the 2 angry birds :)

So far so good with school. Everyone seems to be adjusting ok and surprisingly both mine and Ti's work schedules have been working out well with the kid's.

It's a Boy!

Saturday I went with Toa to Ini's Baby Shower. She's expecting her first baby in May. Toa asked me to do her shower invites and I literally threw this together in less than a day. Me and Sila tried endlessly to get photoshop downloaded to my new computer and nothing worked. In the end Neo flew in from Salt Lake with a disc. It has been so long since I've done any scrapbooking or designing so it took a while to get reacquainted with the program. I'm so glad that it's all over with! Not sure if I've found my groove again, but I did get the basics down.... errrr... for the most part at least.


p.s. If anyone is wondering, yes the info on here has been changed to protect the privacy of the party.

p.s.s. Don't feel bad for Neo cause she flies for free and was planning on coming out anyway to shop. The CD was just an extra thing to toss in her carry-on.

p.s.s.s. Just joking Neo, you are the best... right after Sila ;)

p.s.s.s.s. The kids are off for Spring Break so we are heading out to Salt Lake WAHOO!!!

Baby Les

Last October my best friend Crystal gave birth to her first child {Lesieli Lolomani Tuaone} Soon after my first baby announcement was created.


Can you believe how much she weighed?... and that something that big could come out of Crystal?! Well this month Lesieli will be turning one... my how time flies. The bday girl will be partying it up alongside her friends and family in sunny Florida- how lucky! She is such a doll and has been blessed with some of the best parents in the world. I love this family so much and wish I were able to make it out to Florida this weekend- oh how I wish!!

Happy birthday Lesieli! There is no doubt in my mind that you will be spoiled rotten on Saturday.

Fatulisi Moala : KHS Class of 2009

Fatu is my youngest brother and I still can't believe he has completed High School! He is such a special person in our family because we have all had the opportunity to work with him and help him with his goals. This boy has been able to handle whatever life has thrown at him. He has such an open mind and has been willing to try anything that he comes across. I have watched him excel in soccer, basketball, and football. He has been able to travel for numerous sport tournaments and has even had the opportunity to represent Utah in it's Jr. Olympic soccer team. I have also seen his talent in music and art. And, besides all this- he has been able to maintain a CPA of 3.2 throughout his high school year- not bad for a boy ;) I am just so proud of him! Fatu will be attending the University of Utah this summer and I am hopefull that he will continue to shine. Congrats Fatu on all your accomplishments!! We love you!
