So it has been quite sometime and I'm failing at this ONE post a month deal!!!
So it is August and my last post was in April!! Wow a whopping 4 months ago! SO much has gone on but things haven't really changed much.

May- Went by really fast. We pretty much finished our regular club volleyball season and were preparing for our big tournament in Arizona. Spent some time with my besties and had a wonderful visit from Leilehua Low all the way from Maui!!! We put in to a different apartment complex because our neighborhood was getting a little rough, so we put in an application for an apartment complex in Tierrasanta and were approved!!! Whooohoo!!!
Nainoa has gotten super big already and is very strong!!! He has a HUGE head but thats ok... his big brain is in there!! LOL This is him at 5 months...

June- 9 days into June we had to pack up and move from North Park back to my old stompping grounds of Tierrasanta!!! We moved back to the suburbs and LOVE IT!! Although the parking sucks, we love the quietness and the family atmosphere. Then 2 weeks later we left to Arizona for our 5 day tournament... Festival!! Our 14's age group were the only team to go and we LOVED it. They had a lot of fun and did very well. They finished 24 out of 100 teams, so that was a great finish for our team. But the pool times were super hard, but we did what we had to do!!! This was Nainoa's first plane ride ever!!! He did so well and although it was only an hour long he was a champ!!! The ride home was a little more difficult then the ride to AZ, but it was late and he was tired!!!

| Maui-HI, July 2011 Happy Nainoa!!! |
July- Best month ever!!! As soon as we came back from AZ we had to get ready for our trip to Maui!!! We left on the 7th and returned on the 23rd!! We had such a great time and I will never forget everything we did. I went to Oahu to visit Carol and we had some fun, although my cousin hates the outdoors, we did do a lot. I got to swim with a turtle and that was so cool. My favorite beach was Black Rock beach. I was too chicken to climb the rock and jump off, but it was cool watching people jump!! Nainoa loved the water. He didn't cry at all in the cold water. He even fell asleep to the rythm of the waves. I hope he likes the ocean when we go back to Cali beaches!! I probably gained like 15 lbs while being in Hawaii!!! I miss the grindz and the beautiful scenery and espcially the soft sand at the beaches!!! Then back to reality!! Had my cousin Malia's wedding to prepare for. Bridal shower was a success and then off to the bachelorette party 2 weeks after. Whooohoooo!!! Pops turned 53 and Nainoa got to spend his evening with Gpa for his 53rd bday.

Now we're in August and it is half way done. Time flies way too fast!!! My cousins Bachelorette party was probably the most fun I've had (other then hawaii) in a long time!!! Volleyball started on the 1st so back to no life again!!! But Nainoa is finally crawling!! After numerous attempts he finally got the gist of it. He is really fast too!! It's funny, he went from only walking and holding stuff, to crawling... He still prefers to walk while holding onto the furniture or our hands, but I'm glad he is crawling first. Now the house is becoming baby proofed... gates for the kitches, locks on the drawers and cabinets... cushioned corners of the furniture and so forth. I will take pictures and post them later, but its pretty funny!! Along with that huge event in life... my cousin Malia Liufau finally got married. It has been years and people (as well as her) were giving up. Then she met Pele Ta'aga and her life changed. She is now happily married!!! I was lucky enough to be apart of her wedding party and I met a lot of cool people in her line. The girls were all so sweet and funny!! I was one of the younger ones but I fit right in!!! The wedding was a blast and I even got my parents to even take a funny picture in the photobooth!!! But that is the update for now...

Until the next blog... Tofa Soifua!!!
