FUIMAONO FAMILY

This has been a bucket list item since forever!  This trip was pretty epic and easily the best vacation we've ever been on! I could post a million pics but these are my top 5 faves and I'll leave everything else in an  Album I also saved all my IG stories as a highlight  (I know! who am I being active on Social Media lol) aaaghh!! so worth all the planning, the money/saving, and sacrifice.  Shoutout to my planning partner **Britt** for being the best planner ever!  Let's start saving for our next adventure!

 Miss Wonder Woman turned 6!!! A week before her birthday I told her to go write her plan for her birthday. She asked Leila to be her scribe and 5 minutes later they returned with a full on agenda. Leila was like "Mom she knew exactly what she wanted!!" hahahah Saleima is so funny like that. She's spunky, full of light and energy, and has the funniest way of expressing her excitement. She does this thing where she drops her voice an octave hahahah  Anyways, on with her birthday celebrations.  We started her day with brunch at Golden Corral buffet.  Headband, birthday pin, and balloon by Brittany.  Then shopping at Walmart (she got some leggings and sweaters) and a quick trip home for a little break. Break done! Now off to jumping at HangTime and finally cake and ice cream at home.  Yes she picked he own cake, drinks, and ice cream. After clean up, the kids hit the showers, and birthday day diva was ready to knock out. Aunty Liz stopped by and dropped off a ...

 1st of November - pulled out the Tree and the Christmas decoration bins lol Terrible pics but there is a tree behind Lani's head (left pic) and one of the Christmas bins next to Brit (right pic) LOL Made a Tuiga Our good friends, the Aulavas (they're in our ward), asked us to make a Tuiga for them. It's been a hot minute since we've actually made a tuiga. Thanks to Etsy and Amazon, it was a lot easier than previous times. It was a team effort and I'm glad Aljay is always on board to help lol. He came up with a genius way to make the tuiga sit so that it looks like the top part is going into the bun (like how the tuigas with separate parts is). But the whole tuiga, including the hair, is a single piece that is so easy to put on/take off/dance in/store. Hmmm...maybe I should start selling tuiga's on etsy lol.  Below is a pic of the Taupou who will be wearing it for the Samoan section at the BYU luau. This was just the try-on. We've never been to the luau so w...

I feel like I'm always failing at these hahah...mostly because the household project never makes it...that is, as long as the pantry has been my household project hahah Family Goals Go to the Orem Fitness Center as a family 4 times this month.  Temple twice a month (whether it is parking our car outside of the temple, attending a session as a couple, having a picnic outside of the temple, taking pics, etc) I want the temple to be on the forefront of our minds.  Household Goals Focus for the month will be the PANTRY. It's the monster of monsters that I just need to tackle! BONUS projects - decluttering the linen closets and the kitchenware *Now ( and forever) accepting prayers lol* Follow up Report Due: NOVEMBER 30th 

Picture Day at School  The kids had picture day. We haven't bought school pictures the last few years, but we decided to do it this year since it's Leila's last year in Elementary and Saleima's first year in.  Here's what they looked like before school. We shall see how their pics come out lol                                                                                      Manusina Art  This month has been another busy one. Aljay has so many projects that have come in and are due this month. It's been crazy, but we are so grateful and feel very blessed. Here's some of those projects -- Art piece for BYU-Hawaii  Ho'okele Department  We're really grateful for these two monkeys as well. We have days where we are spending hours running errands after S...
