Fundraiser for Justin Solomon and Family

Hi All, I am doing a fundraiser to help out the Solomon Family. Their Son Justin was just recently diagnosed with ALL Cancer a type of Lukemia. He is a senior at PV high school and is on the baseball team. His mom is a teacher and his dad is a fellow officer of Kyles. I know how hard it is to have a child with cancer. Any and all I can do to help this family out I will. So If you would like to help out this family please visit my scentsy site and buy some scentsy. All my earning from scentsy will go directly to that family. It will be until Spet 12. And make sure you click on Justin Solomon Fundraiser under my parties. Thanks guys

update

It has been so long since I actually updated about whats going on in our lives. I need to start keeping up with everyday occurrences instead of just giving a once a month update. I use to be so good at blogging and then I just switched to facebook and got of the swing of things. I now no longer have a facebook and it actually has not been that bad. I do at times miss talking to friends and family where as now I am so out of the loop on so many things. But i am going to try and be better at calling, texting and emailing. Now if you would all help me and actually EMAIL me back lol. So here it goes.....

Kyle has been really busy with work lately. He loves being a CPL and cant wait to be a SGT. He has the best drive and is constantly pushing me to better myself and go back to school. So guess what im doing....... Going back to school. Yup I am taking a photography class for now just to learn a couple of more tricks with lighting. And then im starting to think about going to school to be an Ultrasound tech. I have always be tied between that and real estate. I think an ultrasound tech is what I will be most happy with if my Photography does not pull through. Photography is what I would Love to do but there are alot of Photographers. So right now I am trying to get my foot in the door.

As for my boys they are growing so fast and I think I put that in almost every post. But it is the truth. I cant seem to slow them down and before I know it they will be walking out the door to start their own life. Kyesun is 8 and is starting 3rd grade in about 2 weeks. This boy is so smart I tell you. He can remember everything and it sticks in his head. He loves to read!!! He is so outgoing and loves to make friends. He is shy at times but he is getting over that stage. He is an AMAZING big brother. I can ask him to do something and he will do it. Though he may not always do it with a smile he still does it. He is so concerned about his brothers when they are crying or hurt and he acts like their comforter. We can be in a store or restaurant and out of now where he will tell a person Hey my brother has cancer. He wants to spread the word and let people know that his brother is a strong guy. Guess what else!!!!??.... He is playing FOOTBALL this year!!! Woot Woot Im so proud of him for doing this. You see Kyesun is not a big sports player unless its basketball. So for him to go outside his comfort zone is VERY unusual.

Kayben he is 3 going on 9. lol I say this because he surely acts like he is 3 but he looks soooo much older lol!  People everywhere we go asks how old he is and they are surprised to find out he is only 3. He is the fighter in the family. He likes to play fight with swords and likes to box. He is in this stage right now where he likes LOVEs to where Kyesuns clothes. And he for some reason is really into layering lol. He will put on 4-6 shirts and 2-3 pairs of pants/shorts. Not sure why he is doing this but it has been an everyday thing for the past week. I promise to post a picture later.

Konner is doing good. He doesnt have to have an appointment in august so instead they gave us a packet to have his port flushed here. In sept he will have scans and I hope that the spot they are concerned about is either A) Gone B) not active or C) they can remove it.... He still needs prayers as the doctors are concerned with this area. He is getting bigger, Not very big but bigger. He is currently only in the 6% for his height and about 8% for his weight. They said he is falling off the growth chart. They said that the chemo and everything he has been through will do that to ya, so hopefully in time he will catch up.

As for now we are all doing good. We also recently got a new puppy. His name is Rex, He is a yorkie just like Nala. We are so excited to have them and seriously 2 dogs is better then 1. Its soooo much easier!

New Photography Site
















So Due to blogger not allowing me to upload my pictures properly I have created a new website for my Photography. Please take a look at it, I will take all the feedback I can get.
Photography is a way for me to express my creativity and get away from the craziness. It allows me to capture those little moments we love to look back on. The above picture is from my recent shoot with a little Angel named Brielle. If you would like to book a shoot please contact me. And Help me out by spreading the word! Thx Guys

Friendship.....

So this is just something I need to let out before I let it consume me.

I had this friend who I was really good friends with. I infact considered her to be my best friend at a point in my life. I shared everything with her, called her late at night when I needed advice and loved her to death. We were such good friends for 4 years. I miss our karaoke nights, trips to vegas, trips to cali, trips to az. But it is all gone. because then the time came where I knew when she was lying to me. I knew that she was probably saying things behind my back because I have seen her do it to other friends. She started being kinda snotty. Like if it wasnt her way no one was happy. And me being the only child and ALWAYS getting what I wanted had a difficult time with that. But I ALWAYS tried my hardest to keep her happy. I pretended like she was always right when i knew that she was wrong at times. I was always there for her during her hard times and happy times. And she was always there for me ALWAYS! I could always count on her and thats what makes this difficult. Back in 2009 everything was going great and then came a day where she didnt agree with something that I was wanting to do. But I am my own person and I do what makes me happy. Well she voiced her opinion and didnt stop there. She said rude things and I mean RUDE. I wont go into detail because it involves things in my past that I dont want the whole world knowing about. She did it on purpose whether it was suppose to be a joke or not. It was not a funny thing and I would NEVER in my life do or say the things she did. I was PISSED OFF! How could my friend, My best friend do that to me. She apologized a day or 2 later and I was still so mad. This broke my heart and I could not let it go so easily. weeks turned into months and she would be so childish and do things that I may have done in high school. I was sick of it. and did not want her friendship if she was going to act like that. So I stopped talking to her.
In 2010 a couple of days after Konner's diagnoses I was hit with a bag of emotions and I missed her. I reached out to her and she wanted none of it. But now I tried again. I miss her friendship at times. Like having someone who knows everything i've been through who i've shared everything with. I miss the old her. And she once again was being someone who I never knew. She has shown her true colors. SO LET IT BE.
I am mourning her loss as though she has died. And I am a complete mess. The friend I once knew is no longer the person who's friendship I wish for. I have friends and I have great ones who do not say things to hurt me on purpose. I LOVE all my friends with All my heart. I cherish all your friends ships and All you have done for me. If I have ever taken your friendship for granted I am sorry. I love you guys.
