So it’s a Saturday morning at 5 am,I am the first to wake up to get myself together. Then i wake my husband up next,I go wake up the oldest to the youngest. The night before I had them go to bed i made them sleep with there beach clothes on. It truly saves time. Made sure to take the baby’s playard. Then packed the cooler with all things we enjoy eating. We had everything in the car,so we thought. We were on the freeway towards primm,when I asked my hubby where is the cooler? His response was “I thought you grabbed it?” uh no. I had the baby’s diaper bag in my hand along with my sons blanket. Needless to say once we were in California we made a stop for snacks. On our journey the night before I felt like I was getting sick. Sure enough I was,bad headache,sniffles,chills,watery eyes,difficulty breathing. I knew that a battle was taking place in my body. Usually a trip from Las Vegas to San Diego is 5 to 6 hours,we got their in 3.5 hours,AMAZING! Of course the baby fussed,so we tried different things to calm her down which happened to be food. Once we arrived in San Diego, we needed to make our way to the beach. So after viewing Mission Beach for a while,we were getting hungry. Decided for breakfast that we would go to Del Taco,who knew what would take place at Del Taco. While waiting for our order,my hubby received a complaint for the shirt he was wearing. The shirt he was wearing was a Death By Meth shirt,it is a (ministry)organization run by our friends Kerry and Christina Hancock. The lady named Davia stroke up a convo,we found out she is a worship leader and her family happen to be in the car. We meet Davia’s hubby,Bird and cute little girl,Ever. We soon find out they wanted my hubby to speak at their church on Sunday night.Since the family we were going to stay with was not going to be home for a while.

So we went to Mission Beach,it remind me a little of the shore or more like Cape Cod. To my hubby, he said more like Ocean City,MD. For my two youngest they loved the (chilly)water,especially for the first time going to the beach. My oldest truly misses the beach atmosphere,in his mind he will live on the beach. When were done at the beach we headed to the Pastor’s house. So we meet Pastor Vic and his wife Tara,and sweet babies; Analysse, Iziah,and Cuatro. They openly welcomed us into their home and our kids were having a blast(yes all 6 of them). Travis and I were going to be speaking at their church, The Body. Everywhere one their was so welcoming to have us. I was a little nervous,yet at same time had no idea what would be coming out of my mouth. And it went really well. We are still in San Diego,but Mission Beach,were my hubby currently speaking. We are returning back to home to Las Vegas in the mid morning. During this trip I have definitely seen some Amazing things.
