SUMMER

WOW what an amazing adventure we went on this summer...... and we still have a few weeks left.  A few days after my last post and Jayden was home from his first EVER Church camp with our NEW HOME Church her in Lawton Oklahoma :)  the kids and I went to California on a road trip to spend a couple weeks, both kids were signed up for Vacation Bible School, they LOVED it :) okay to be honest Jayden didn't wan to go the first day..... but we said if he didn't like it the next he could leave..... well my mother in law said he saw a friend and had a blast the rest of the day- THANK YOU JESUS!!! and I worked and then came home for about 10 days to.  We wanted to be home for the 4th of July with all the fireworks.... when we got home they had announced a burn ban and NO fireworks were aloud :( oh well me made the best of it and also had soooo much fun with Brian as we missed him like CRAZY.  We spent most of our days on the lake and the water park 1 day and meet ups with friends.  Then we packed up to go on another road trip to work and Jayden had another Church camp to go on. 
The 10 days I was home a lot of things happened..... It was VERY UPSETTING for me to say the least and still think daily about what went wrong with me and my best friend.......  I am praying that time will heal :))))  also Brian and I decided with Persaus starting school this year and only being half days that it would be best for me to stop traveling to California to work..... WOW was this the HARDEST decision I have EVER made. To say good bye to almost 9 years with most of my clients was heart breaking.  I guess I didn't see how much those amazing women impacted my life in sooo many ways till I had to say good bye.  I am writing letters to each one of them to let them know how much I appreciate them and what they have done for me in my life, not only allowing me to make there hair beautiful, and the amount of money they have spent, but the love and friendship they have given me.  I thank God for how much they have blessed me :)))))
I took Persaus to Disneyland while Jayden was at Camp, that was a lot of fun we spent most of our time in with the princess.  I think it was a little overwhelming for her but we did not go all over the park so that helped..... now that I am a road tripping mommy and can do it alone if Brian cannot take time off in the near future the kids and I will be going to Florida to Disney WORLD!!!!   I would rather go on the cruise..... we will have to see.... I think I should put a picture of the Disney cruise ship on my dream board :)))  On our trip back to Cali from Okville Brian's co-workers wife and 2 kids went with us as they are from San Diego and she was able to take her girls to see family again.  We planned on getting together during our stay out there but we were so busy with family we didn't get too.  We were back home a couple weeks later only for like 4 days and we packed up as a WHOLE family and went on another road trip with mimi and papa Martinez to Missouri for a family reunion and to visit friends..... so exciting that after 14 years with Brian I was finally introduced to most everyone, and the kids too!!!! and Brian got to get away from Okville and be with us :))))  We are home now and have NO road trip plans set in stone except me alone going to Missouri to a Christian conference Joyce Meyers!!!!!! I am soooo beyond excited to see her live :)))) well now I work on ALL the posts  with pictures to tell our WHOLE summer vacation so far.................................
