Friendships to last a lifetime!

 I love you all! Thank you for a wonderful weekend!!

LA For A Day!

Dancing With the Stars!

The fastest, but most fun and relaxing 24 hr. trip I've ever been on!!

Jumped on a plane that morning, arrived in LA just in time to grab lunch at the Farmers Market across the CBS lot and then ushered to the front row to "Pick your seat!"

Of course seeing the  name tags on the chairs I would jump at the chance to sit behind Priscilla Presley and NappyTabs! What?!

5,4,3,2, and 1

There is my BEAUTIFUL and AMAZINGLY TALENTED sister waving as she comes out on stage. Ahhhhh! The pride one older sister can have.

Butt grab, and then POW! The performance begins.

Couldn't take my eyes off Stace as she danced right in front of me and then....

STANDING OVATION! Cirque was fabulous.

We only got to see Stace for about 10 min after, but long enough for me to put my foot in my mouth, take this pic and as Al would say, "reapply for the 3rd time".

After Stacey jetted back to Vegas, Alison and I spent the rest of the day pulling carry on bags down the Hollywood stars of LA and then enjoying wonderful food, snacks from Trader Joes and a fishy pond smelling hot tub. Slept like a dream in my white fluffy cottage and then before you knew it (kinked neck and all) I was back home the next morning.  

Brilliant.

I love you Stace!

Many Tears

Well, it was a sad weekend, but I am looking forward to getting back on track.  Tui and I get to wait a bit longer to begin our family as it's not quite time yet. Sorry grandma GG :), but don't be too sad. I know our little diva daughter or tank of son is just gonna wait a little longer for an extra super perfect little body.  I appreciate so much all of your thoughts and prayers on behalf of Tui and I and our little family.  They were felt so strongly. I love you all and will keep you posted as our days move forward with the progress of our business and family endeavors. Much love!

We're Having a BABY!!!

It's official! My mom is going to be a grandma and she LOVES it! GG (our decided nickname) has been knitting burp cloths for 5 weeks now! They are so darn cute  you can't help but love it.  I was so excited to have found out the week before my mom and my mother in laws birthday, and so we surprised them with the best gift EVER! Tui and I are thrilled to begin our family.  It wasn't necessarily in the plan just yet, but now that it is we are truly blessed and excited! I feel great so far and continue to teach Zumba aside from my mother in laws saying, " NO MORE ZUMBA!" haha yeah right!  I'll definitely continue to post updates as my growing belly gets even bigger. WOO HOOO not. :)
