Dallas/Roswell/Carlsbad/Roswell/Carlsbad/El Paso Trip!!!

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllll if your wondering where I've been for the last week, it's ALL IN THE TITLE OF THIS POST!!!! 
.
Wednesday night was church at my church and as we're going home I said to my sister, well the flight is at 5am but I need to be at the airport by 3am, do you think I should go to sleep tonight or take an over the counter sleeping pill to fall asleep OR just set my alarm to see if I fall asleep on my own??? You know what she said to me??? She said, annnnnnnnnnnnd I'm QUOTING HER WORD FOR WORD, she said,"What amazes me, is that, YOU ACTUALLY THINK I CARE!!!"
.
It all started off at 2:30 🕝 am Thursday, the morning on the 7th when my Uber driver picked me up and gave me his life story on the way to the airport!!! He didn't help me with my luggage, WHICH is an unwritten rule that they're SUPPOSED to do IF THEY WANT A TIP!!!! Buuuuuuuuuut as I was leaving, it was his parting line that ACTUALLY got him a tip!!! After giving me his whole sob story of rent being soooooooo expensive and he's also paying his sister's and her kids and possibly his sister's friend's rent...He said, WELL, HAVE NICE LIFE!!!! I don't know why but that really cracked me up!!! Liiiiiiike, we're literally NEVERRRRR going to see each other again!!! Sooooooooo I gave him a tip in the app to help pay everyone's rent!!! BAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!
.
NEXT THING...My SUITCASE WAS FIVE POUNDS OVER!!!
 Liiiiiiiiiiiike literally...
 STORY OF MY LIFE..
.EVEN MY SUITCASE IS OVERWEIGHT!!!! 
🙄🙄🙄
Sooooooooooo they told me I had a choice to either get rid of the extra weight OR pay $100!!! Seriously, soooooooooooooo LAAAAAAAAME!!! Buuuuuuuuuut I got rid of five pounds of stuff and one of them WAS NOT THE 15 POUND LASAGNA THAT I FORGOT TO PUT SAUCE IN BETWEEN THE LAYERS ON!!! AHAHAHAHAAA!!! 
.
Sooooooooo I'm just telling everyone that I take Benadryl every night for two reasons. 1. Otherwise I would NEVERRRRR fall asleep 2. since 2018 ive had really bad allergies and sinus issues so that helps with it. Ive talked to the docotor about it and we dont think I have insomnia...I just like LITERALLY don't get tired!!! I don't take naps unless I'm sick or just soooooooooo exhausted...it's not that I don't like naps, I just wouldn't fall asleep to even take one!!! 
.
Soooooooooooo after church on Wednesday, I decided that unless I fell asleep naturally, I would just stay awake until it was time to go to the airport...annnnnnnnnnd I was kinda curious to know HOW LONG I COULD STAY awake before getting tired!!! Buuuuuuuuuut I have to keep schedule so I never actually find out!!!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllll Guess how long??? I fell asleep, NATURALLY, on the airplane at 5:45 on the way to Dallas!!! Soooooooooo basically it takes me 24 hours to get tired enough to fall asleep on my own!!! Which is soooooooooooo weird because I remember when I was young I was ALWAYS TIRED! like In high school and college I was sooooooooooo UNHEALTHY, ALL I DID WAS SLEEP!!! I would fall asleep in class, in between classes, ALL THE TIME!!!!
.
Annnnnnnnnnnnnd after a very, very long layover in Dallas, where we had to switch gates and planes and I took a 13 year old boy under my wing cuz he was traveling by himself and literally hyperventalating and sobbing cuz he was soooooooo scared!!! Apparently, I was the most motherly looking in the group heading to Roswell because he kept looking at me with pleading eyes! Annnnnnnnnd of course my Mar Bear heart was stirred....So I was like, hey everythings ok, your going to be fine and you can stick with me when we go to find our next gate....cuz the Dallas airport is HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!!! He was like, ThAaAaAnk you...allll stuttery...then we start walking over and I realize I don't even know where our gate is cuz I was calming this kid down when they said it!!!!! AHAHAHAHAAHAAA!!
.
Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut after all that....
We landed in ROSWELL!!!
Not wonderful, beautiful, amazing and fun Roswell, buuuuuuuuuuuuuut home to soooooooooooo many of  my wonderful, beautiful, amaaaaaaaaaaZing, FUN and Godly friends!!! We walked off the runway, which cracks me up, liiiiiiiiiiiiike literally, THE ONLY OTHER PLACE I've done that was in a little island called Bohol in a 3rd world country AND ROSWELL!!! Bahahahaaa!!! And guess what???? I'm sooooooooooo used to being a city girl, I ACTUALLY GOT lost in the airport BECAUSE IT'S SOOOOOOOOOO SMALL and THERES NO SIGNS annnnnnnnd I didn't know what to do without SIGNS!!! I asked the police officer where I should go to get my luggage annnnnnnnnnnd HE ACTUALLY STARTED LAUGHING AT ME!!! He's like, turn right and YOUR THERE!!!
.
Then Jenny came and found me in her mom's beautiful van...Thank you Jenny's Mom for letting them borrow that for me!!! :)
FIRST STOP TARGET AND BOBA!!!
Jenny had to remind me at Target to be careful what I was talking about because we were in a SMALL TOWN...I was liiiiiiiiiiiiiike OH YEAH!!!! not that I was saying anything bad...JUST GIRL TALK!!! Hee, hee!!!
Then we drove an 1.5 hours to Carlsbad, where Jenny and Ryan live!!! Yes, they drive that to church in Roswell twice a week and also doctor's appointments...Did I say Jenny is pregnant??? Anywayz we talked the whole time and I informed Jenny that I was really worried that after all this time of talking on the phone that things wouldn't be cool in REAL LIFE!!! That happens sometimes....Liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiike your GREAT FRIENDS with someone on the phone annnnnnnnnnd then you hang out in real life and your liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiike OMW THIS PERSON IS SOOOOOOOO ANNOYING!!! (I'm liiiiiiiiiiiiike WHAT IF THAT HAPPENS AFTER MARRIAGE  to some bro and YOUR JUST STUCK???)
.
Anywayz, that night I made Mar Bear Tacos and then we played a board game and Ryan said rolling dice and killing monsters makes me OFFICALLY a NERD!!!! Buuuuuuuuut I lost sooooooo I don't think i'm quite there yet! Still holding onto my "Cool City Girl Shopaholic" card for now!!!!
.
Then we went out for a night tour of Carlsbad so that Rayden could fall asleep and they took me to all the mansions along the other side of the river and basically we just cruised around and wasted gas but it was super fun.
.
FRIDAY!!!
Was go, go, go, go!!! Which is exactly the way I like things!!!!

First we went to Blue House Cafe and it was sooooooooooo GOOD!!!

ANNNNND COFFEE!!!

So we're sitting there at breakfast and I think it was Rocky and Emily that were talking about how good the chocolate almond milk was at the camp. So Joe says, well I really like, Coconut milk! Then Daisy says, Well I really like Coconut water, NOT wanting to be left out of this amazing Coconut conversation, I just shrug my shoulders and say,
"Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllll...
