Never Give Up

☼ Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

☼ If you can't accept me at my worst, you don't deserve me at my best.

I think I fell in love with this song..☼

About Me ☼ && My Family


I can't really think of anything right now, since my life has been just the usual schedule, so I decided to talk about me and my family..just so you can get to know us a little better.

My loving family has been doing great lately! This last Saturday we had a whole clean-the-home thingy and it feels a ton better in this home of ours. Later that night we babysat Cruze, Enza and Gauge, so I think it was our excuse to at least clean our house! haha, but we need to get to it on our chores.



My sister and I, Leilani, are now on the same club volleyball team (She moved up) and Leilani is doing wonderful to stay up with us. I sprained my ankle on a trampoline (HHAHA..it sounds like me), so I'm out for a week or two more now. Dawson loves being with his friends. Everywhere I look, there's a new friend around. He just ended basketball and enjoyed football a couple months ago.

Dashani and Anisi are two peas in a pod! They are the bestest of friends and love to play in the snow, slide down the stairs, or anything they can put their hands on. I enjoy being President in Seminary for this term, but I have had some rough times..in the end, I know that Heavenly Father is there for us and we can look up to him.

My parents..Oh my parents!! They are way busy. My mom takes care of my greatgrandma, Mama, on my Dad's side and she loves the joy and spirit of it all. My Dad is organizing the stake basketball tournament and stress comes on! The joy of being with my family cannot be explained.



I love to laugh. My friends know that, yet I hope my extended family can see that soon :]

My family loves tacos. Well, I do most of the time!!

I don't think I am enjoying this snow so much, because of how I am gonna start driving real soon, but it's very pretty and the Bountiful Temple I can see from this window is extroadinary.

I love green and volleyball. Being on the highschool team was a joy and the feeling of being on the court with my 5 best friends is the best feeling in the whole entire world.

My family enjoyed putting on Christmas decorations lately! It's different then it has been the other times, except for outside, but inside is great!

FUNNY STORY!!!
So about a week ago, I asked my brother Anisi what Christmas is all about and he said "SANTA!" and I told him the story about our savior and how he was born and Christmas isn't all about Santa Clause and gifts, yet I asked him again and he said "SANTA!"....I told him the story again and asked and he finally said, "Jesus Christ". That feeling of the spirit brought me a whole pack of joy! When I asked him what was in the sky, he said "Clouds!!!!"..I finally gave up :]

I hope everyone enjoys this Christmas season.
