WOW

Okay so as always it has been a really, really, really long time since I have posted. Our little Gomez lives have been CRAZY!!! so going back, We started the salon (YAY) it is almost done, we are at the painting stage. Who would have thought I would be so indecisive about the colors(?) But I am set now and we are going to be painting all weekend (if you don't have any plans please come join us).

We took a sweet little family trip down to Vegas in June, we went down for the IBS hair show....AMAZING!!!!! I loved it, and even better El loved it. I have the best husband, not only does he support me in my career choice, but he gets as excited about it as I do, because he knows I LOVE it so much. (I know I know luckiest girl in the world right here)We also had the chance to see his old mission bud. The Potts' they are the sweetest most welcoming family I know, and the have the cutest little girl. All in all not only did we have a great time, but I picked up the best stuff for my salon........Grand Opening coming soon, you will have to come and check out all the goodness.

After a relaxing month with out the interruption of cell phones...pure bliss!!!! We went and celebrated our 4 year anniversary up in Lava Hot Springs :) We stayed in Pocitello, and let me just tell you it was SO nice to just be with the hubby and not have a plan or things that need to get done, to not have to think about the real world for a few days (LOVED it)

Then we had to come back to the REAL world :( I started back to school, and my dear sweet hubby went back to work (he is still looking for a better job....we are hoping to have him out of the retail business when the holidays hit) We have gone back to our regular every day grind..... he is working and comes home and takes care of the house and the dogs, and the construction on the salon......and I go to school, our days are long, we don't get to see much of each other, and when we do we are usually falling asleep on the couch (yup every night.....till 2) But there is a light at the end of our tunnel. I graduate Oct. 17 FINALLY!!!!!!!

Sept. 17 my father (greatest man in the whole freaking world) went into Cardiac Arrest, we were getting in the car after my nephews football game (go pirates!!) and Dad just went down. Right there on the side of the car, right in front of Talia, and Lauren to see. He stopped breathing and they (we are so lucky there was a nurse and police officer right there who saved him) after about 5 minutes of CPR got his heart started again and got him breathing (YAY). He was taken to the hospital, he had a heart attack (mom calls them episodes) and was in A Fib for 4 days. After a pace maker/ defibrillator was put in they shocked his heart back into a regular rhythm. After 3 procedures and a few setbacks (dang Kidney's) He was finally released to go home and recover from his "Episode" and 12 day stay at the hospital. I am very happy to report he is doing AMAZING!! There were so many blessings from our Heavenly Father that came into play to keep my Dad here with me and I am FOREVER thankful.

Moving on to happier and brighter things (hopefully). We have big plans for our little family in the near future, we want to go to Guatemala (I still haven't met all the family......or learned Spanish), also we want to get Eldon back in school for a graduate program of some sorts, while I try and get enough clients that I don't have to work at the mortgage company any more (wishful thinking). We are hoping to adopt another dog into our family (my niece calls us the Duger of Dogs LOL) and just keep plugging away and being happy.
