| Nothin' but cute on her first flight to CA with Mom for a hair-doing trip. :) |
July 14- Hair, Hair, Hair all day! Worked 8am-6pm Friday and Saturday. Did 22 clients this trip.
Some of the hair transformations. I LOVE traveling back to CA to do hair. I didn't realize how much I've missed it until this trip. It's like therapy! :) Service, creative outlet, girl time, friend time...I just miss it!
| Love my Kaylynn time. |
| Got together with some girls at Dish Dash for dinner. Tired little Madison came along and got held by many. |
| Kaylynn, Meghan, Molly, Lindsay, Me, Jessica, Kim and Elaine- missed everyone else! |
| Frozen yogurt. My favorite and a MUST with these girls. It feels like I never left. So comfortable with these amazing women. Miss you all! Glad I still get to see you! |
| Back home, Kai got to go to the zoo with Daddy while Sarah had a fun day and sleepover with Grandma Johnson. |
July 15-
Went to the Sunnyvale ward and saw old friends, stopped by my old neighborhood and said hello to neighbors and then later ended the evening with Rebecca. Sweetest girl.
| Always good food (and of course dessert) to be had with Rebecca. ;) |
July 16th-
I LOVE running in CA. Such beautiful surroundings.
| Sweet Elaine who let me invade her space and do hair in her kitchen for days! She slept me, fed me, gave me rides, etc. So hospitable. Thanks Elaine! |
The flight home Madison was a dream and slept in my arms until we got our bags. Nice to get a break, but so good to see the kids when I got home. They always seem so much older to me after a couple days.
Possibly the cutest thing ever! STILL can't get enough!
