Emotion Code Certification

I AM SO EXCITED!!! I haven't posted in a while, life has been crazy busy for us! It has been so fun!! (and stressful at the same time) But I am so excited to announce that I am completing my certification to become an Emotion Code Practitioner!!! I am so stoked!! I signed up last week, but things got a little mixed up. Now that we've sorted most of it out (I hope), I get to start working on people! So if you are interested in having some "energy work" done, shoot me an email, comment on this post, hit me up on FB/Twitter/IG/Snapchat and we can get started. And it doesn't even have to be you that I work on (I just need permission, I can't just do it without them knowing. That is just rude.) But if you have an animal/pet that seems a little odd, I can help them too!

I will also be posting up different experiences, comments or testimonials of people I will be working with (with their permission of course) so that if you aren't sure you can get an idea of what it's about. And so you know I'm not just crazy and doing random things. I will keep you updated and also blog about our normal life things as well. I was just too excited and had to post this!! For more info visit the Emotion Code website and or visit my last blog about the ECode (which is what I will be referring it to from now on). Have a fantastic rest of your week!!

Elder Latu

Words can't express how proud, grateful and humbled I am to have Ofa Latu as my brother. But I will try my best to express it through this blog post. (cuz I'm cool like that. Right fatso?)

Senior year?
Ofa Latu has been the most annoying, irritating, weird, strange, stink little brother to have walked this earth. (Except maybe Vini.) People do not understand the annoyance I had to deal with, with this boy. People will try and argue with me on how "annoying" their sibling is, but as soon as I'm done explaining, I simply rest my case with them replying with "dang that is annoying". He is the type that did ANYTHING to prove he was right. And I mean anything. He is the type that will convince you that you are wrong even if you really are right. And he will manipulate the conversation/story/fact to fit his opinion. He always has to have the last say. I seriously mean it. Under his breath, in a text, on a piece of paper that he throws at your face. Plus he is extremely talented. He runs extremely fast (so NO ONE ever got him), he always had to touch you last (even if it meant he brushed by you 6 hours later), and he always got his way (perks of being mommy's favorite. admit it MOM you and gramma's fave is the OFA ki LIAHONA child). And he was so goofy, regardless of if you were right/wrong/whatever, he would make you laugh and forget about it instantly, which is probably the most annoying thing of all for a person who is ALWAYS unhappy. (me)

With that said, Fatso (Ofa) is also the most loving, caring, considerate and brave boys I've ever known. He always looked out for me. In Jr High he would let me hang out with him and his friends cuz I wasn't cool enough to really have my own. He watched out for me in high school, always made sure I ate, gave me his candy (that wasn't hidden or half eaten, and he ALWAYS had candy), let me make mistakes (even in front of him) and let me fall when I needed too (while laughing). Even after I got married, he watched my son every night with his girlfriend (Nini I will forever be in debt to you too), gave me money when I needed it (even though he was a poor high school/college student) and loved me regardless of my mistakes and flaws. He is everybody's favorite. (well him and Na'a are technically at a tie) Kids (not just mine) LOVE HIM. They flock to him like flies on doodoo (hahahahahaha) and they love his free spirit and jokes.


Semi-Finals Senior year
Without a doubt, I am so blessed to have your stink face in my life. You have always been there for me. Regardless of all the things we went through (and we've been through a lot), you always had a smile (teeth or no teeth), was sure that things would be alright and laughed the whole way. I love you for all you've done for me because I know that's just YOU. You're going to be a great missionary, not because I'm supposed to say that to all missionaries, but because you'll be able to bless others lives like you have blessed mine. I've written about you before, but I wanted to share again because you're simply one of the best brothers I've had so far... (no I don't think mom them will have another child, but when na'a and my other sisters get married that adds more brothers.) May God continue to watch over you and guide you in your journey. You're the best. I love you stink boy!! (Indiana you better be good to my brother!!)

Independence week

After the temple w/tia Lupita's family
We've had such a fun week!! We got to see Josh's tia Lupita's family before they left. Well we practically got to see most of his family this week and it has been a while. We got to go to the temple with Lupita and her boys before Aaron left to the MTC. My kids loved spending time with them and harassing their kids. (My three are CRAZYYY.) Independence day we went to the Freedom Days in Provo with Glenin and Annette. My kids looooooooved it. Although it was crazy busy Gissi got her face painted, Gabriel went on a fun ride, I went with both of them on the spiny ride (which I will NEVER do again) and they all got prizes at the end! I think it'd be fun to start a booth. I just need to find something to sell. Lol. But later we went to Olga's again and had a family dinner which Abuela, Mario, tia Elizabeth and Veronica came to join us and tia Lupita's family. And we got to end the night with our fabulous neighbors to watch some fireworks! (did you see that one chelle??) It's hard to write about all of it without going all over the place so I'll just post some pictures. Lol.

Her cute butterfly!

sparkelers!
I am also very grateful to live in this beautiful country. I feel so privileged to be an AMERICAN! Although my roots came from the small (tiny) islands of Tonga, I will forever be an American. Born and raised in this country, with international roots has opened my eyes to the blessings and privileges most American's take for granted. I love indoor plumbing, A/C, heaters, all the technologies along with the right to speak my mind, cuz I am a girl, the right to marry who I want (yes Josh I'm grateful we're married :)) and to have as many kids as I want! (even though I think we're good for now. lol) I am grateful to those who prepared the way and sacrificed and still do sacrifice for our freedoms in this country. I pray that with God as our guide, we will be able to move forward with peace and love. Life is to short to not see the beauties all around! I hope you have had as great of a week as I have and it's not even over yet!! Happy birthday America! I love you!!



my complaint about the fireworks. LOL
