Gospel for Asia

Three or four years ago Summer, Sunny and Marleau decided to sponsor children in India through Gospel for Asia. Maybe it was all our years in National Charity League(42 years combined) or the lingering guilt installed at a young age while growing up in the Catholic Church(lots of years of that too) or maybe just the great example our Mom showed us(I think this must be the real reason), but we all have a passion for giving back whether it be our time, energy or even a little cash.

Our church, Daybreak, in Carlsbad introduced us to this charity which provides schooling, food and Jesus to underprivileged kids all over the continent. We get hand written letters and colored pictures from our child all the time. Marleau's kid writes the most often because she writes them back! She always has to remind Summer and Sunny to do the same. Summer and Sunny's kids both have sent updated pictures of themselves and it is so great to see them grow. 

This is just one of the many charities that have our heart. There are so many more that I'll share soon!

The Wet Brush

I don't know how we ever lived without this brush! The Wet Brush was made to detangle wet hair, but can also be used on dry hair. Wet hair is extremely fragile. When being brushed it can be stretched to almost double its length causing it to break and snap. These bristles were designed to collapse which is easier on the hair and somehow detangles miraculously! It is a must for every kid. Moms save yourself a headache after bath time, and use this on your children! It works on every hair type, and comes in all sorts of fun colors. There's even a baby wet brush for travel. Be kind to your hair and invest in a Wet Brush!

Cheers to the Longs!

Well the crazy Californians got back yesterday from celebrating the Long's Wedding in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina. I traveled there with 12 friends (mostly guys) and it was hilarious. On the way there we were all stoked to sit together and after 5 days together on the way back we have preferred to sit by strangers rather than each other! HA! Carissa made the most beautiful bride and well, Timmy was just the most handsome man ever. We spent most our vacation on the Logan's dock in our bathing suits and I wouldn't have had it any other way. The water there was perfect and I had a blast jumping off cliffs and trying to surf with the guys. Don't ever wear a strapless bathing suit by the way...I'm pretty sure most of NC saw my boobs at some point. I absolutely loved it there! Cheers to a lifetime of happiness for the Longs. So glad I was there to witness such a beautiful wedding!

Pepper

Well the girl we have been waiting for has arrived! And she is even more of a doll than we could even believe. Autumn, Richard, Carden, and Eden welcomed Pepper Tui Kidd into world in October. Of course my Mom and Dad were in New Zealand to be there for her birth(Thank God or my Mom would have been a basket case waiting to hear in America)! Carden and Eden have been awesome big sisters helping Autumn take care of the little one. Pepper has these amazing blue eyes and the cutest little dimples when she smiles. We have already nicknamed her "Ocean Eyes", although all of our nieces have beautiful blue eyes! All of us can't wait to get our hands on Pepper and her sisters too!

She is always happy and observing her big sisters. Autumn stuck her in the bath with Carden and Eden. Pepper saw them in there and laughed and smiled. She thought it was SO cool to be in the bath with both of them. Her smile and laugh made Autumn, Carden and Eden laugh out loud. Summer time can't get here soon enough because that is when the "kiwis" come to visit us in America! I know I am already counting the days! We love you Pepper!

It's a miracle!!

 It's a 10 miracle leave-in product truly is a miracle! Considering I'm a hairstylist, I hated to admit i dreaded washing my hair because combing out my tangles was so frustrating! This product has solved that problem and made my life so much easier at the salon and at home. Spray it directly on tangles and spritz it lightly all over the hair. Besides miraculously detangling the hair the smell is amazing!! Other benefits of this product:

• Repairs dry, damaged hair
• Adds shine
• Controls frizz
• Seals and protects hair color
• Prevents split eds
• Stops hair breakage
• Creates silkiness 
• Enhances natural body

It's worth the price. I highly recommend it. All my sisters are hooked. Buy it and get hooked. It'll be good for you :)
