Sunday Family Funday

Today Dane and I took Sophia to the National Tropical Botanical Gardens. We took the Alerton Garden Tour. It was BEAUTIFUL! Not to mention FREE! Every Sunday NTBG tours are free to Kama`aina. For those reading outside of Hawai`i, Kama`aina means local to Hawai`i. So those of you with Hawai`i State ID's GO! Go on Sunday's! ITS FREEEE!!! Lol.

It was incredibly beautiful to see and FEEL! I'm not sure if it's because I'm taking a Hawaiian religion class but I felt really close to these plants and I loved knowing background stories to some of them.

This is Sophia enjoying the water structure at the Mermaid Garden. This was a beautiful sight to see. All the water fixtures there are gravity fed this particular one made waves down the fixture.

This is a Red Ginger Heliconia. Absolutely stunning! There was a line to get this picture! If it charged 10 cents to take it's picture, it'd be a millionaire! Haha!

This is Dane and Sophia looking at a beautiful pond built by accident! The constructer accidentally drilled a hold letting in all of this water and fish and plants and it just grew more and added to the beauty of the garden! We saw Koi fish, Froggies and BEAUTIFUL Lilly flowers :) Lilies are my fave!

This is the Bamboo Cove. Beautiful bamboo shooting out everywhere! It is breath taking!



Here we have miss Sophia playing with more water! Haha! This girl would cry every time we had to leave a water fixture!

Here Sophia is playing in the roots of a huge tree that I totally forgot the name of! Lol

 

And here we have the twins... Completely over it begging mom to stop being such a tourist and take us home! Haha!

 

We had an awesome time! It was beautiful and definitely a great way to spend some family time! I really suggest that more locals take advantage of the Kama`aina Sundays! This is our second Sunday there but first time on the Alerton's tour. We will definitely be doing this more often!! :)

Spring Cleaning in The WInter?

Have you ever heard such ridiculousness? Haha! always cleaning! We are ringing in a New Year with a clean home! Not to mention our neighborhood is big on the celebration, we have a huge block party. Our cul-de-sac is one big new years party! But somehow the babies always end up in our house to sleep. haha! So we must keep it clean and presentable, although it is anything but after all the cooking and celebrating going on during the day! This year mother in law is teaching me how to make her Oxtail Soup. I am so excited because I LOVE her Oxtail Soup! I am so excited to g into this New Year organized and clean and having goals to strive for. I am not the most organized person. I feel like in the last 2 months I really cracked down on myself and really made myself get into the groove and get organized. I even started watching what I ate (sorta) and I lost weight! So I made a vow to have stronger willpower this upcoming year, and not eat junk food and to exercise more. Starting small with a jog in the AM, and giving up my nightly cookie fix. Haha. Slowly I will progress into meal planning and actually working out! This should be an interesting year! I can't wait to see hat it has in store! What are your goals for the upcoming year? Share them with me! I'd love to cheer you on!!! I have a few people that inquired about working from home and I am really focusing on my team and their goals. Helping them set goals for their families and themselves and helping them achieve it! Everything from making a healthier home to making an income from home! I am so happy to be on this journey with them and cheering them on and helping them achieve their goals! Let me help you as well!! Emailing works as well if you are not comfortable leaving info! email: breanamalia@gmail.com
