Well let's see, I am now really fired at blogging. So instead of apologizing, I will just catch you up on everything that has happened since then.
FIRST AND FOREMOST…. ISIMELI DAVID VOSA RAVIA RECIEVED HIS BACHELORS OF SCIENCE DEGREE FROM BYUH!!!!! I am SO PROUD of him!!! He graduated on April 12, 2014. He majored in Political Science and minored in Peace Building. He is happy to be done with school, and is now looking forward to grad school. He is still applying for many and hoping to get in. My family is hoping that he gets into the ones that are in California.
Cole and his family were able to join us for David's graduation, and we got to have a great 2 week vacation with them and their 6 kids. I was a small space, but it was great fun. All the kids got to know Untle Dabid (as Tui would call him) a lot better, and they got a real taste of TVA life. I think they enjoyed the closeness of the park, and the fact that they could go whenever they wanted. I was even able to take some time off of work to hang out with them. I think they made it a goal everyday to go to a different beach, but I think the favorite was Alligator Pond, and Waimea.
We also had a new Fijian family move in the apartment downstairs. The Cokonauto family. David hit it off with Atalaite Cokonauto. I think she was at our house as much as she was in her own home. We were grateful to have them below us and enjoyed sharing dinners with them.
On April 24, 2014 we officially checked out of TVA and moved home to California. I cannot express the gratitude that I felt for so many people who came to help us move out. I don't think I would have gotten in done with out them. We literally packed up the house and cleaned it in a matter of 36 hours. We will always cherish the time that we had at BYUH and TVA.
In California the adventures continued. David was able to spend 2 weeks there before heading to Fiji. We went everywhere from Coronado Island to San Ysidro Outlets to Rancho Cucamonga. It's was so much fun to spend time with friends and family, but David was ready to go home.
While David went home for 2 months I stayed back to help mom with girls camp. Thank goodness for modern technology, or else I wouldn't have made it through those months without David. It was months of planning shopping but it all came together in the end. The food was great and camp ran as smooth as could be. I also got a chance to hang out with her nieces and nephews. I will miss them dearly. My last week there I got to go do swimming lessons with Talei & Lave. Lave was a fish but Talei took some convincing.
On June 24,2014 I made the big move to Fiji!!! Yes you read right. FIJI!!! I was finally reunited with my true love. Just in time for our 2 year anniversary. I got to meet my in-laws as well. They finally got to meet the person behind the name that the only grand-child carries. They are amazing people and we get along very well. I am blessed with a wonderful mother-in-law who works hard to help us in any way she can. My new brothers are great too. It was definitely different living in a house of boys, but I think they're getting used to me. Lol. Soany things have happened since I got here, but those will be for another time. For now we are just enjoying the island life and family.
