i’d like to start off by congratulating my sister Tammy Moniz for the biggest accomplishment in her music career. she wrote and produced her very first song a few months ago and finally released it with a music video. so like always, last minute i get an invitation.

drove out to Haleiwa for a family and friends gathering. Hawaiian potluck style with lots of food, family, friends, kids, and music.

when you’re young, it’s hard to realize your siblings accomplishments. but as we get older, it’s so clear the message Tammy is sending. it’s all about music, family, love, and Hawaii. all summed up into one song.

and yes, my sister gets very emotional at times. our family has been through a lot and you would be emotional too if you only knew. but we learned as a family to only move forward…

the vibe at Haleiwa was golden.

the kids got together and sang one of the most beautiful songs you will ever hear.

and when the music video premiered, i had chicken skin the whole time. sitting in back of my sister, i honestly wanted to give her a big hug. she poured everything into her heart for the kids. and if you could see the joy in the kids faces, you would feel the love in the song.

music lives on. so proud of my sister for planting the seeds into the next generation. these 2 kids went to the oceans edge and strummed the ukulele while singing from their little hearts. i watched this and thought to myself “this is Hawaii. this is music. and this is love…”
