Romo Family Reunion




We had our first reunion last month and it was great! We got to see all our Aunts, Uncles , cousins, and my grandparents! I felt alittle bad because I told Karissa "All these kids are your cousins" And she just gave me a look and said "but I don't know them." We have a big family, my grandpa's last name is Romo. ( no we are not related to Tony Romo!) My mother is the 2nd born of 7 kids. My grandmother had her hands full! The picture we took inspired me to make a canvas. The first one that required alittle painting. It's my own little masterpiece. Ok maybe not so little it's a 30 x 30 canvas, but it's just the right size for my living room. I love the picture of my family with my grandparents, it's something that I will always cherish. The group picture is the first Romo pic. ( and that's not all of us, some uncles and cousins are still missing). We had a great time!

We are planning a going away party for her in October. That will be fun. So if I don't post again for awhile you know why.... First day of School... Birthdays......Scrapfest...... Going away party.......
Then the Holidays Busy ! Busy! Busy! "till next time...

OC Fair











Well it's kind of a tradition with the Reyes Family to go to the Fair every year. This time was bitter sweet, it is the last time we will go to the fair with our Jo Jo! In November she will be in bootcamp! I'm gonna miss her sooo much! We all will. The kids had a great time, they always do. One thing about my kids is they know how to have fun and act silly! They're great! Blanca and the kids went, and Sophia and Jayden met us there too. Jayden had So much fun! It was great just watching him run around not knowing where to start.

CHA Chicago





Laurie and I went to CHA Chicago this year. Our first day there we went downtown to enjoy the sites. It was great! We even went to the famous Superdawgs drive in and had a hot dog. We were so busy the rest of the trip doing all the ordering for the stores. There was so many great ideas and product especially for Halloween and Christmas. So make sure you stop buy the stores at least once or twice a week, New product from the show is already coming in!

4th of July





On the 4th of July we all went to Cerritos High School and listened to a band play and watched the firework show. Oh and I can't forget all the yummy treats we ate! We all got a little teary eyed when I'm proud to be an American played, Especially now when Joanna is so close to leaving for the Navy.

San Diego


I'm so sorry I haven't been very good about updating you all on what's been going on. Last thing I posted was Karissa graduation. Since then Danny and I went on a mini vacation to San Diego's Gaslamp District. We had sooo much fun!
