Laughing.

I love laughing. Who doesn't?!

More than anything I love to make my nieces laugh. They are so much fun.

My youngest niece was showing me her pretty dress but she wasn't really working the camera for me like I wanted her too. So I tried to use my charm and wit on an almost three year old and it wasn't really working.

Go figure.

I had to resort to other measures...tickling.

So that finger poking her to get her to laugh, it's mine.

I was going to tickle, step back and take the picture, but then I saw what was happening...the moments we forget to remember.

I'm kinda in love with this series of pictures. Aaaand, yes I know I say that a LOT. But for reals. My cup runneth over for this little girl. It makes me smile and ache at the same time since none of my nieces live in Vegas too.



Now go make someone laugh...or laugh with you. ;)

Another one bites the dust!

Aaaaand another year DOOOOWN! Take THAT life! I made it another year! And though there were some bumps and bruises (literal bruises, mostly on my arms...near veins) I made it pretty much with flying colors to my 29th year!!
I know that I would not be where I am at in this moment in my life if it wasn't for the love and support of my family and friends. This year has helped me realize more than any other time in my life how much I love and appreciate my family and even though they drive me crazy sometimes, I also wouldn't trade them in for any other family.

(sorry, i only have pictures of me with people. i searched and i'm never alone...with my niece Jordan right before my birthday)

Don't ask me why, and maybe I'll change my mind later,(I'm a girl, and I'll play the girl card at that time if called for)but I'm pretty excited to face my 29th year and I'm going to face it head on! I have so many things that I am ready to do as I ride out the last year of my 20's. I never thought that I would be as ready as I am to face my 30's. And even more so, ready to face them single, growing successfully professionally in many different aspects and vastly changing my outlook on life and the perspectives that I have held for so long. I never expected to learn and grow as much as I have this year. Even though I have my moments, like most of us do, I am so happy to be where I am at right now.

I love and appreciate all of you who visit my blog and choose to share in my journey!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

And just for an added fun note...this is what happens after you come to a Lori Wong Party...theme for this birthday party
"Ain't no Party like a Lori Wong Party, cus a Lori Wong Party don't stop!"

(no one was drunk, impaired or harmed while in this shot...they were just tired from all the awesomeness of a Lori Wong Party)

They will reunite...

...yet again! I'm sure Mandy (my dog) is looking forward to it! :)
I'm so excited for next week! I miss my sister and my cutie niece!!


Bonus...all three nieces will be together again next week! Good times all around!
Here they are with Grandma and Grandpa or I mean "Gamma Nila" and "Papa".

Sorry!!

Thanks to a lil' harsh but loving email...I guess I set my permissions on who could read my blog wrong. I don't know what happen!!

My bad!!!

But as you can see, I haven't updated it because...well...I've had some major computer and internet problems. I'm still having some computer problems...but I did finally fix my internet today! Sigh of partial relief.

I'm so sorry to all of my clients and thank you, THANK YOU for your patience with me!

And since a blog post isn't interesting without a picture:


My niece Jordan...her little curls are so cute. In Texas, walking around downtown near the River Walk.

Texas, here I come!

I am headed to Texas next week to visit this cute girl! I'm SO excited!

(confused at which cute girl I'm talking about? My niece, duh, the one on the right! I don't need to visit myself in Texas! hahaha! I'm hilarious. I know. It's almost tragic! haha)

I won't have much access to a computer, but I do have my trusty iPhone. So you can still email, call or text me! I'll get back to you as soon as I can!

Yee HAW!

Jordan is one!

I can't believe that Jordan is one. She turned one last month, but they weren't able to come and visit until this weekend. Jordan is T-H-E happiest baby. She is such a good little girl and so loving. She is walking...I mean running around now. She is teething, so as you will see in all the pictures she slobbering all over herself! Poor kid! :) Her happy disposition is so great. I miss them so much and wish they lived closer.

Here are a few from just two hours of being around her...I probably snapped over 300 pictures. Yes, I'm THAT crazy auntie! hahaha.




The CUTEST THING! She discovered her reflection in the bumper of grandpa's truck.



I'm sure I'll show more once the weekend is over.

Okay! Okay! I'm sorry!!!

I'm sorry I haven't been around lately. I have been dealing with quite a few things lately. I was scolded by a few people for having not updated in a while.

Well here is one of many reason why I haven't been around lately:

My 8 month old niece (who is now the size of a 12 month old!!) came to visit from Texas. She is adorable and a total sweetheart.





And yes, those cute chubby cheeks are very kissable! :)


So that is one of the many VALID reasons why I haven't been posting lately. I'll throw out some of the others soon! Promise!

My Three Nieces

Just a teaser of some of the many pictures we took last weekend...from youngest to oldest.

Jordan is 3 months. there are some cute ones of her awake,
but I just can't help that I love this one!

Kaitlin will be one on Halloween.
So crazy that she is almost a year old.
Look at those BIG eyes!

The official ham of the three. Kealani. She is aaallll about posing goofy for her Auntie Lori (or as she says Loowee).
I can't wait to show you more of her. So funny this one.
