Introducing... Sione Kauvaka class of 2010











Meet Sione Kauvaka aka Johnny, Nani it all depends on who's calling him.. High school senior at Rancho Cucamonga High School, home of the cougars.. This is one of the most humble boys I've known, and I've known him for most of his life. I've seen him grow from a baby, to a young boy, to a young man and cant wait to see what life holds for him next.. Johnny is the oldest out of 6 kids, 5 boys and 1 lil princess, when Johnny flew in for his pictures I asked him how his baby sister was doing and he said with a smile, she's getting smarter and smarter everyday.. I see the sister has him wrapped around her lil finger. Johnny takes the older brother job very seriously he is always helping with the younger siblings and still has time to play Defensive Lineman for his varsity football team last year they took State and this year they lost in the semi finals.. Still a great season.. I asked him his favorite subject in school and he answered Lunch.. Favorite thing to do when bored, A: Hang out with cousins (there is a lot of them).. Favorite position to play in Football, A: Water boy (not).. What were his plans for after graduation, A: Get ready to go on a mission (good answer)..
Johnny its has been an honor seeing you grow up all these years into the gentleman that you are today, may you reach all the goals you have set for yourself, and may you always be the son and the big brother you mom raised you to be...

Romes' 1st Birthday Party

Introducing the birthday boy Rome... With a name like that you know the party is gonna be BIG...







Is this the cutest sucker tree you have ever seen?
Rome couldn't wait to run into the party....
Face painting was a highlight, the kids stood in line for this...
Romes' baby sister, yes the mom is a trooper..



When I first was contacted about taking pictures for a 1st birthday party I thought sure, no problems, I mean really some cake and ice cream and a few friends, this is going to be easy.. Boy was I wrong, this party is what dreams are made of.. I mean this is the party all my kids dream about, you know the one parents tell their kids some day I'll throw you one of THOSE parties.. lol.. Rome what can I say..... THANK you for inviting me ( I mean your mother of course)... Your parents rock, your birthday rocked, but then again when your birthday party includes clowns, Mickey and Minnie mouse, carnival games, a clown on stilts, a unicycle, face painter, magician, a juggler, enough candy to go home with it will last you a whole year, live DJ, live music by Ray Leger and Jackson County oh and I don't want to leave out the party gift bags that has enough Disney stuff in it my daughter thought I was the best mom in the world when I brought her one.... And believe it or not that was not all that birthday party included... I could literally go on and on and on about this party..
Thank you for letting me capture your 1st birthday party, I am honored.. I hope that when your older you see these pictures they are vivid enough for you to relive it...
Happy Birthday Rome... Cant wait to see how your parents top this one....
