A Trip to San Diego

One day my mom and I were chatting on the phone. 
She told me she needed her hair done but didn't want to pay someone else to do it. 
Instead, she wanted to chip in some money for me to come visit, as well as do her hair.

 I was feeling ready for a little breather. 
My sweetheart was supportive, work granted me the time off, and I found a great deal on a round-trip ticket. 
So within a couple days I booked my flight and one week later, I was off!

Mom, dad, Steph, and Luke picked me up in Long Beach. 
We spent the day with Zach in LA.

The rest of the trip was full of  haircuts, hair colors, pool, beach, shopping, 
time with puppies, nieces, nephew, sissies, brothers, and parents.

I feel so lucky, I got to see all but one of my siblings on this trip.

Kinz and Brookie

It was a gloomy, chilly day at the ocean. But I loved every minute of it.
More beach.

Within minutes of arriving, sweet little Tay got stung by a bee!

She's a toughy and made a quick recovery.

 Josh came down from LA for a quick visit. We went to Panera.

Leaving San Diego is always bittersweet.
I was dyyyyying to see my love again. But saying goodbye to my family is no fun.
I'm grateful that I've never gone more than 4 months without seeing at least one of my siblings or my parents. 
I'm grateful to be a part of a family that always makes an effort to see each other as often as possible.
 Thank you my dear family, for making this trip so wonderful. 
And my sweet husband, for letting me be super selfish and go on vacation while he continues to work his tail off.
