blessed with the best

Family has always been a key point in my life.  I thank the Lord for blessing me with such amazing people that I call family, whether we're blood related or not.  This past week I have noticed how truly blessed I am to have such generous, kind, and loving people in my life. 

On Tuesday, the amazing management team at my work set up a surprise potluck for me.  During this potluck they presented me with multiple gift cards that were for very generous amounts that the entire Panorama staff had all put in for.  As cheesy as this sounds- I opened the cards, saw the amounts, and lost it in front of my entire Panorama team.  I know I work with amazing people who are kind but I was so surprised that they all so willing provided me with such an incredible gift.  I especially am thankful for our management staff as I know they are the ones who coordinated everything for me.

When Sage & I met one thing that made me love him even more was his family.  The beauty of the Polynesian community here in Las Vegas is that everyone is like your family, whether you are blood related or not.  Many of the people that Sage's family have introduced me to are like our family, without question.  Yesterday, our Las Vegas family threw us a little baby shower.  It was so nice of them all to take time out of their busy schedules to provide our little family with such a surprise.  Though my family all reside in Salt Lake, I'm beyond grateful for my Las Vegas family who take such great care of my little family and always support us through our journey. 



The Batoon family graciously opened their home to us and threw us an amazing shower.  Everything was perfect!  From the décor, the food, and the games... It was all more than I could have asked for.  My amazing mother-in-law of course helped with many things as well.  I admire Karly and Heavenly so much.  They're such amazing mothers and are always lending a helping hand in everything. 

With the help of all of the amazing people in our lives, we have been given everything we need for our little Tai to make her debut... when's she's ready of course.  I look forward to showing her all of the amazing people we have been blessed with!
