What a Week!

I can't believe this week is already over! Which means Christmas is around the corner literally around the corner!! I thought I would have my Holiday Cards ready and sent out by now but NO not done yet. I thought I would of had decorations on my tree by now but NO not yet. Hopefully I get something done next week.

This week was so busy celebrating my dad and Kami's birthday on Monday. Then celebrating Alexis and Austin's on Wednesday. Then trying to keep the kids clean at the same time keep the house in one piece by the time Ray gets off work. Doing all this you would think I have no issues with keeping weight off but NO can't keep it off. The holidays are all so close together, the food is great, the time goes by so fast I forget to exercise and when I am feeling low on fuel I should be eating a apple or orange. Instead I eat a freakin Kit Kat or guzzle down a Mt. Dew. I am so glad this year is coming to an end because I am going to re-set all of my goals and stick with them. Enough about me lets talk about ME!! haha...

Wednesday our day started off way early. I think the twins knew it was there BIRTHDAY!! I'll just show you videos and pictures of this day.

That last post they were still awake. Here they are finally asleep. 

Then they woke up at noon to grandma Tolofi's Voice!! 

A CAKE!! Thanks Grandma... 

Brotherly Lovin! 

Bath time there favorite part of the day!!

 Climbing diaper Boxes! Yay

 Mad because they had to get ready. 

 Waiting to leave to the Party haha 

Finally.... Balloons and Fun!! 

 Can you believe Grandpa Fele ate the cake before we even sang happy birthday!! Only him... 

 Its Fele's Birthday everyday!! 

So then Thursday came around and we re-decorated Fele's room and hung up all I mean all there clothes. We seporated all of the toys and we organized all the books on the shelf. My kids love books by the way. I have to read Fele at least 3 or 4 before he goes to bed. Then I sat and got thinking about my goals I set for the year and did pretty good. Minus the healthy eating part and exercising part. On my vision board it said I was gonna find my way to Africa. So I'll have to set that for next year or maybe when my kids grow a little older so it can just be Ray and I. The things I really need to focus on for next year is getting into shape and eating healthy seriously. Enough of that.

Friday Cookie making night! We decided to invite Kay's girls over so Levila can teach us how to make Sugar Cookies. She is pro at making anything we ask her to make. She loves to cook. My mom was giving us the SECRET to cooking or baking. The SECRET is.... keep it clean or else no more cooking!! haha Thats all she said. If you know my mom she rather see a clean kitchen then actual food to eat on the table. I just love that lady, she makes me laugh all the time!! They are so easy to make we just didn't want to learn till now. Here are pictures from our night. Fun fun fun...


Saturday - Usually every year we have a gingerbread contest but because funds and time everyone agreed to just make the sugar cookies and deliver them while doing our caroling. The last several years we have been caroling to our aunty Lolohea. Due to old age she passed away a couple months ago. So we decided to go visit Haloti's Brother. We took them all the cookies then sang. It was such so much fun to get to experience such a thing. The sparkles in there eyes and the tears some of them had. Its amazing how 20 minutes of your time can make someone's day.

After that we all rushed downtown for the 2010 Christmas Concert with David Archuleta. Funniest thing is that we went to stand in the "Stand By" line waiting to see if we could get in. The couple in front of us   said they have been waiting the last two days and haven't got in, then the couple in front of them said they had been waiting there since 1p.m.  I was like what? We are crazy to even think we will be going in. So what we ended up doing was walking around asking for EXTRA TICKETS!! Guess what? We got 27 for all of us to get in. hahahahaha... We are good. It was amazing and I just loved every second of it. David Archuleta is one talented kid. The Mormon Tabernacle Choir was amazing as well. The dancers were so cute and Michael York did a great job telling the stories.

Tomorrow we have our family musical fireside. Practice earlier was beautiful and the kids sounded great. Gabriel plays the piano so well now. Our family is growing and our talents are expanding. I love it. Goodnight bloggers!!!!

The pictures and Videos for this week will be posted next week! Night..
