{ Newlyweds }

If your looking for some inspiration in your marriage (or relationship) or your interested in becoming...er...Newlyweds once again, READ THIS BOOK:


 This book changed my marriage F O R E V E R ! If you read it and apply it to your own marriage it works miracles, plus it's waaaay cheaper than marriage counseling! ...not that we ever needed marriage counseling -I'm just saying (because some people might).

Basically, there's 5 different "love languages". Everyone speaks/understands their own love language which is one of the 5 or they can be bilingual (they speak/understand two love languages). The trick is to recognize and understand what your spouses is -that way you know how to fill up their 'love tank'...and likewise, your spouse learns your love language so they can fill your 'love tank' up. Eh...ok, I'm probably killing this trying to explain it in my own words. Just read the book. It's short and will take less than a day to read.

Caution: Those who read will experience Newlywed symptoms, once again. ;D

Want to know what your love language is??
Take this quiz.

{ What? }

 Laugh of the week...


....And when a man says "what?", it's not because he didn't hear you. He's trying to buy time to think of an excuse to say next.

True story.

{ Halloween Weekend }

At the pumpkin patch. This is the best pic I could get...he's ALWAYS on the go!

Still don't know what it is with him and goats?

Getting his hair eaten...and of coarse I'm just standing there taking pictures and laughing...
(these goats were pretty aggressive. one almost knocked me over-I was not laughing then.)

He played on this for 30 minutes...when we only paid for 5. suckers!

The sign in front of this said "KIDS ONLY" but when the workers weren't looking I snuck on a couple times with baby :)

IN-N-OUT after the pumpkin patch. If you've never tried fries with a shake...you don't know what your missing out on.

His enormous wing span made the whole costume ;)

Trunk-or-Treat with Buzz Lightyear! 

Fonua babies. Getting them to both look at the camera was impossible...we tried. haha

Camped out in front of our apartment carving our pumpkin. Safi boy could care less about the pumpkins -he just wanted to play with the cool knives.

The end result. Not as creative as I would have liked but I was too tired and busy to figure something else out. eh.

Yummy bread bowl soup with sweet potato fries for dinner at my momma's right before going trick-or-treating.

He's ready to get that candy! (I think his daddy and I were more excited than him to get a pillow case full of chocolate)

Highlights of this "first-time" trick-or-treater:
-seeing how excited he was to be "Buzz". he kept on pushing his buttons on his costume and thinking he could shoot his 'laser'
-he got so excited to run up and knock on all the doors (if you know my son than you know how loud his knocks are with those hands)
-when people opened their doors to give him candy he tried to walk inside-he was a little confused and didn't understand why you have to stay on the doorstep
-before someone would give him candy they'd say "what do you say?" (waiting for him to say "trick or treat") Then I'd say "trick or treat" for him. They'd ask him again -and I had to explain that he doesn't talk yet. (people are always thinking he's older than what he really is)
-watching him walk up to a scary house (with scary music, decor, and people w/masks) and not even flinch when he walked up to get his candy

Can't wait until next year!

{ loose to win }

It's a new month....with new goals!

First goal:
My husband and I were in -great- need of some motivation to get back in shape (and I really, REALLY want him to shave his goatee) so we have a mini-competition/bet going on for this month:

First person to loose10 lbs gets to decide what happens to the goat (yea or nay) and gets to indulge in their choice of a pair of Nikes/Jordans.

Seeing how competitive we both are I'm hoping no matter who looses the 10 first, it's still a win-win situation 'cause we'll both be back on the "Get-Right Program". Buuuut you already know whose going to win (or should I say loose) the 10 first...none other than the WIFEY! Best believe I'll be cooking him his favorite and very fulfilling meals/sweets this month.

Stay tuned to see whose the winner and whose the weiner at the beginning of December!

update: I DID finish the P90x a couple weeks ago. If your thinking about trying it- it really does work and it's effective (but far more effective if you eat healthily the entire program-unlike me haha). I didn't loose all the weight I wanted to but I know I lost something 'cause I went down a notch on my belt. :D The only thing I didn't like about the program is the repetition of watching the same DVDs every week. By the 9th week I wanted to strangle Tony! That's probably why I haven't started INSANITY yet 'cause I'd rather stay on good terms with Shaun T. I'll give it a couple more weeks before committing to that madness.

By the way, I never want to be that thin like the girl in the pic. But really, I am going to do it this time...haha...really. And cake.....or my favorite, Rocky Road ice-cream, isn't going to stop me!

{ Happiest Place On Earth }

Took a family trip to Disneyland...for FREE! (it's not what you know, it's who you know!) Here's some moments from our day.

Started our day off with the Buzz Lightyear ride..twice...in a row!

So into it...just look at the face!

He LOVES anything and everything "Buh!"
Flying with Unko Spence! My boy was so HAPPY the entire day.
Haunted Mansion

Not so into this ride lol

Waiting in our private VIP room to meet all the princesses...

Obviously we were way more excited than the babies! lol

Thanks to Rapunzel (Jamee) for getting us in and rounding up all the princesses for us!
They were all SO PRETTY! (and looked exactly like their character)

...already the ladies man!
Safi boy ran up to Flynn and held his hand and said "Buh! Buh!" (Sorry baby...Princesses only here)
Meeting Mickey

My first plank! I held perfect form while the seats were moving simultaneously up and down  -all while the carousel was moving! SUCCESS! lol..eh..jp

According to Terewai -the babies had a "Disneyland Hangover"
Tower of Terror! 
Pure Tongan BUFFNESS right here!

{ I Love to Create }

My new thang!
This is my first time using charcoal. I know..I know, this is just amateur stuff but if you look closely it's a bell pepper. (it's some what abstract) I've always loved to draw...and I just now discovered how to use charcoal (it's pretty much just smudging, blending, and erasing charcoal to create an image on paper-with out drawing any lines) and I think I might love this more!

I LOVE to create!

Once I have more free time on my hands I can't wait to make something a little more er...interesting! haha

{ If only... }

The standard -every- husband should live by:

 IF ONLY this were true...
-I'd wake up every morning to a clean kitchen..oh, and breakfast in bed.
-he would watch baby and be oh-so-patient while I shopped at H&M for a couple hours.
-I would get to watch my favorite shows (in peace) while he gave me a massage and folded the laundry at the same time!
-he would write his papers ahead of time so I'm not stuck doing it for him on a Friday night

If only... haha Oh well, I know my Sugardaddy got me!

Aaaaaaand I'm pretty sure my husband has an entire 'if only' list for me as well...too bad he doesn't have a blog. ;)
