Where does time go??

Okay so it seems to me that I only post ONE blog a month. What the...?? I don't even know. But since August is practically dang near over with, I might as well give an update. Can you believe that?? It's almost September!! 

Well July was a great month. I took two trips to California during that time!! Yes two. It was hectic and a burden on my Hubby's wallet, but we still managed to get through (thanks to our Father in Heaven for his help and guidance as well as to my loving Husband who put up with it, let alone me). Our 70th Fuimaono Family Reunion was a HIT!! I loved every minute I shared with family from near and far. I also got to spend some time with my Sissy before she went to New Zealand for 3 MONTHS!! All in all, we made it there and back (both times) safe and sound, and let me remind you that there's NO PLACE LIKE HOME!!

Of course when it was time to go back to work, I about DIED!! Haha. But we've all gotta do what we gotta do and jump back into reality (working that is) whether we like it or not. Thankfully, I LOVE my job!!

Hmmm what else has happened?? Oh!! Mom and the kids moved in with Joseph and I. Yeah I know, our house is really, really crowded right now, but I wouldn't have my Mom and siblings anywhere else. Of course I do miss me and my husband's time alone and our house being so quiet, but what can we do. Luckily, we're looking to move into a bigger place once our lease is up. That's the least we (ME especially) can do for ALL the years that Momma has taken care of us as a single parent. I love her so much and I'm grateful to have her be a part of our household.

My husband is TRULY a blessing to me. He has accepted me, my family, our culture and everything else in between with open arms from the day I met him and continues to do so NOW!! I couldn't ask for a husband more loving and giving than him and him alone. He busts his butt to go to work to support not only me, but now my mother and siblings. I know that I can be a BIG pain in his behind about things that shouldn't even matter and we don't really see things "eye-to-eye", but he continues to love me unconditionally. Therefore, I'm so LUCKY to have him as my ETERNAL companion. I love him with all that I have in me and some!! I can't say it enough...Dang, I'm one LUCKY WOMAN!!
