Anniversary

Jan 21 is our anniversary and Mulek came home with these...

Maybe I am sheltered but I have never seen bright pink roses before...

We have been married now for 4 years, it has gone by so quick... It has been a great 4 years and I cant wait to get to 40 years ..

Thanks for being such a great husband to me I love you!

Christmas!

Just a few pic from Christmas......... since I am way behind in blogging. Our christmas tree!

Christmas Eve at the Institute....
Where is Santa?

Such groupies.

We woke up earlier than the kids.... Well Mulek woke up earlier than the kids and decided to wake everyone else up... Sorry Brittany!

Look at little Bostyn, trying to get a head start before the other kids come out.

Dont have a pic of Makai, He slept all morning.

Once again with the "signs" all the kids at the Halloween party at church.

Family Road Trip

This is officially our first family road trip! We drove to Utah for Suvi's farewell. We left home at 11pm so the kids would sleep the whole way there or most of the way anyway, and it worked!

This is our first stop and fill up in Primm

One by one they slowly woke up , as you can see Gavin is still sleeping in the back. They were looking at all the lights... They thought it was Christmas...too cute!

The kids wake up for a stretch and Mulek takes a power nap.



He wouldn't let me drive " Its too far." And I have no clue how he fell asleep so fast and with all the noise the kids were making.. It gave the kids some times to stretch and pee and for me to nurse makai.... I had to wake him up he was so good, he slept the whole time.
This was about 4 in the morning.. so the kids got to see the sunrise as we drove through the mountains... it was so nice.. just in time to fall back asleep for the rest of the trip.
Aniya's eyes look funny because she was playing with pink kids makeup... Thank you Aunty Suvi!

Even Mulek was getting crafty!


While we were there we did some crafts and went to museum so the kids could get out of the house, because it was so cold.

Leave it to the Moemai's to break some rules... I just want to state or the record that I was not a part of this.

We also took a little trip to the mountains to play in some snow.... Too bad there wasn't any there!Here are the kids in the cabin that was there at the resort.

The kids outside looking for some snow... That Aunty Suvi promised would be there.

OK so there was a LITTLE snow.... just enough to make a small snow ball

The kids and Gma Moemai

Sister Moemai at the MTC..... have fun in Chile

Here were are in front of the MTC. Gavin is not happy as you can see he didn't want to wear in Jamma's in public.... but e left straight from there to drive back home and I wanted everyone comfortable (so they could go to sleep).

Well sleep definitely did not happen on the way home... Makai Screamed the whole way

The boys.... Still awake and we are almost home

Well you can tell Gavin is definitely camera friendly.... he wanted to take a pic with everyone... He doesn't get that from me that is for sure.

I love this pic because you can see the sunset behind us.... I love road trips!

And a kiss for the road!

Laughing with Samoans!!

I decided to take Mulek out to see these guys since he works so hard for us and because I just had a baby and wanted some freedom.. It was nice to spend the eveing with him... Just the two of us... That never happens... And they were hilarious!
