The Final Post

Well folks, today is my final post. I haven't posted because I've been moving into my new apartment. But here I am now. The plane ride back from Mexico was bad. I got into Houston and my flight to Colorado was canceled. More waiting. Then my new flight was delayed. Even more waiting. Johanna had to go to customs by herslef, but I bet she was already home and unpacked before I was! The flight back was very bumpy, but when we finally landed..I was so happy. Later that day I got my first cell phone...so cool! I got to see my mom, bro, and grandma! I was very happy. I think the favorite thing in Mexico was the fact of actually being there, and being able to visit my grandparents, and meet my cousin. And even , meet some incredible friends! Well, this does it for my final blog. I hoped you guys liked it. Please leave comments!!!


I would also like to thank everyone who helped make this trip possible. I love you guys!!!

The Final Day

Hola amigos! Today was my last day, very, VERY sad. We went to a village to check on sewing ladies. They made uniforms for another village, so we then went to that village to tell them. They were very grateful and even gave us fresca! It was scrumptious! We then had lunch at Carol's, had gazpacho, bread, fruit, and cookies. So good! We said our final goodbye, and then sadly left everyone. We came home and packed, so stressful I had to step on my suitcase to close it. Ugh! Then we went for a final swim. It was very refreshing. We dove and dove and dove! Then we said our goodbye to the pool and took the final shower. We had a delicious dinner after that, and a lovely strawberry dessert. The last dinner. Sounds familiar, huh?! Well, I will blog a TON tomorrow, so be sure to check back tomorrow, or I will hunt you down and find you. Then bad things will happen...

Final Sunday

The final Sunday. It's the final everything these last few days. Well, as we all know, my trip is coming to an end. I am leaving Tuesday and very sad about it. Before I describe my last regular day, I want to thank my Grandam and Grandpa for inviting Johanna and I here to Mexico and even paying for it. It was truly kind and I thank them will all my heart.

Well, today was very...oh I don't know...depressing. It sounds sad, but it's not. Church went very well. The sermon was interesting, and the sweets were delicious. The part I didn't like was saying goodbye to everyone. It was heartbreaking. Everyone was thanking us and saying goodbye and it almost out me to tears. We finally left after many saddening goodbyes. The car ride home was beautiful. I hadn't realized that at first and was enjoying it. We hopped right in the pool after that though. The water was so cold, we had to swim around a while to get warm. We finally hopped out and unsuccessfully tried to pull a comb through our hair. It got stuck...
After a good yanking and pulling, we made dresses with the fabric Grandma bought earlier. They are absolutely beautiful and I already know that I am going to be wearing a ton. We took pictures and are posting them on picasa if anyone would like to have a peek.

Well, that wraps it up for my final Sunday. Hope you all had a good day. See ya!

The Last Shopping Day

Today was very fun! We got up early this morning to this morning to make churros! I dipped them in sugar while Grandma and Grandpa cooked them. They were so good and we have so many leftovers! We left for town straight after breakfast. We went to an organic market where I bought my last gifts. It was so cool to look at all the foods. It smelled even better. Then we went to a master class...of music! We came in, sat down, and let the beautiful music get flow to our ears. The musicians were so good, and so young! We then went to the last market of our visit. I bought a bag, a scarf, and a lovely picture frame. I was so happy. We finally took the taxi home with all of our purchases. When we got home, I added up all of my purchases. I haven't used all of my money. I had about 75 pesos left. But Grandma said I should probably have some money in case I needed anything at the airport. So, I have 5 U.S. dollars. It's still a lot. Sort of. Well, that's it for today. Stay cool!


P.S. Hey Grandpa, guess what? I didn't use one single he-he or ha-ha. So ha!

A single visit

Today we made a visit to a town called La Campana. Our journey began at the horse coral early in the morn. Well, not to early. We each had a short lesson because my was a bit hipper from Cesar's attack. After a quick lesson we made our way into Carol and Harold's kitchen where we were heartily welcomed with bowls of soup to energize us on the journey to the village. It was lovely cabbage with chopped up potatoes. Delicious! We gathered up the necessary food supplies and up we went. We drove about 10 minutes then turned off into a dirt road. We traveled a little way up, stopped, got out, and armed ourselves with food to feed all the hungry people who lived at the small house. We walked through some bean plants and were once a again welcomed. The people lovingly took our food and were very grateful. They showed us around to let us look at the few projects in process. I got to see a little where they lived...and it was sad. They were not well off. There house was almost collapsed, and many animals were lingering around. Then they showed us there current kitchen. It was roughly around 5 ft. high (way to short) and was totally black. The fire was just a ring of rocks and there cups and plates looked like they had been found on the side of the road. It was horrid! And to believe this family was above average! After peeing at the kitchen, we headed out into a place a little more open where I so about 3 skinny-as-sticks dogs and cats that weighed only about 2 pounds. It looked like it had not been loved properly, which all animals need. I pet it gingerly for about 5 minutes and then it was time to go. We all said our goodbyes and headed out. We all looked back before making our way to the car. Finally as we went down the last road to get to the main road, I realized I was lucky to not be like that. I am a lot more grateful for everything now, and will try not to waste anything. It was a great experience. When I get back home, I am going to convince my mom to let us help fee the hungry.

The Last Thursday...

Today was our last Thursday...aw. We had fun though. We tried to paint nails but got frustrated. I totally stopped. Then we had stew for lunch and went swimming after that. We got out of the pool took showers, and then went to choir practice. After the last time of singing our little hearts out, we came home. Had a delicious dinner of short ribs and potatoes with asparagus. Going to watch a movie later. Sorry for the short blog, I blogged earlier today. See ya!

Miss The Sun!

Hola, everyone. Sorry I haven't been able to blog the last couple of days. Tuesday it was to late and yesterday I wasn't feeling to good. But I recovered, so I will now fill you in.
Tuesday- Went to the Tuesday market. Bought 3 shirts. 2 for me and one for someone else. Can't say yet. We got home and had lunch. Then swimming. Hit my head at the bottom of the pool. Ow! Went to bed after dinner Couldn't sleep.
Wednesday- Woke up sick. Stayed home and got some rest. Recovered pretty quickly. Johanna got a fever and also got sick. I fought it off, but she didn't. Stayed home all day. Watched Prince Caspian though. So cool!
Thursday- Not sure what we are going to do today. Will blog again later.

Peace Out!
:)

Monday in Queretero

Today was absolutely fabulous! We got to sleep in, and go to Queretaro. The drive was wonderfully beautiful. So many pictures. When we finally got there, we went straight to shopping. So many opportunites! I bought perfume, bouncy toys, and gems. It was all too cheap, except the perfume. They didn't have any mini sizes, so we had to but full bottles. Oh well. They will sure last. After browsing quite a bit,we had an amazing lunch at 1810 restaraunt and bar. I had really good spaghetti, Johanna had lasagna, Grandma had a diaphram of a cow, and Gramps had chile something. It was all good. Then we went to Costco. We shopped around, Johanna and I even got to browse by ourselves! We played with computers, i pods, and tvs. Neat-o! Then we ate ice cream (well, frozen yogurt) and a great, big churro1 It was so good. I still feel like a fat man. I feel asleep on the car ride home and didn't want to wake up. But I had to. We unloaded the car and I messed around until Johanna was done with her violin practice. We went swimming after that. The water was so grody! Yuck! When we got out we quickly washed our hair in the sink. A bit messy I would say. Well, we just ate quesodillas. So I'm gonna go read. See ya!! :)

Sunday Once Again

Today was our 4th Sunday here. Our trip is getting shorter and shorter. But church was good today. We went out to eat afterward with Carol and Harold. I had an amazing quesadillas. They were so delicious! After we automatically jumped in the pool. We stayed in there for about 3 hours. That was the highlight. Grandma and Grandpa even came in. And Grandma did a cannonball! Wowza! Now that's picture worthy. After that we got out, and messed around for a while. We had hamburgers, frozen yogurt, and ice cream w/ a cookie. So have to go. See ya'll!

P.S. Tomorrow we are going to Queretero.

Hey...Again!

Hey everyone, again! Another day in SMA. I'm getting use to it. When I get back home I'll probably wake up expecting to be in Mexico, not Colorado. Oh well. We went to the arts and crafts festival today. I got gifts for everyone, except for my guy friends. Any ideas? Please leave a comment if so. We even got this really good smelling soap, mmmmmmm! After we came home, I went swimming. Johanna fell in. Ha Ha! I laughed my head of . We got out a little while ago, it started thundering.....again. I hate the rain! Anyways, we are going to watch the rest of Fiddler On The Roof. We are also making chilies reanos. A true Mexican delight. I hope I can eat it, I'm not feeling very good today. Well, stay cool!

Busy

Sorry I didn't blog yesterday. We didn't have time to. So I am blogging for yesterday now. Yesterday we had our final day of Spanish school. Aw...We had a mini fiesta with a bunch of really yummy juice and junk food. We even had some tres leches cake. It was really good. After Spanish school, we went outside and did some tanning. He He! Johanna got a chair out but all of this black chunky liquid came out. It even left a big ol' stain. Ooh! It was funny though. Then we went to Hulia and Amelia's house. We played Hand and Foot and then we played Mario Kart it was fun but we had to go. Oh, well. We had meatloaf for dinner and frozen yogurt for dessert. We even watched Fiddler on the Roof, or part of it. We collapsed in bed after that.

Well, I will blog again later today, Bye!

Thursday Awesomeness!

Today was, well is, pretty good. Spanish lessons again. We had a little trouble with our homework, but our teacher helped us. We teased...or though of it....teasing about him meeting somebody and taking her dancing. Ha ha! Then he gave me a new nick name....Mosquita. It bugs me! Then we came home and had lunch. It was really good. I thought it was tuna but it was Salmon. Grandma also gave us a stopwatch. I am now obsessed with it. This afternoon we are going to choir practice at 4 o'clock and then having another spectacular dinner. After that our selection of ANY movie. So cool! Well, have to go. Bye!

Stressing Out!

Today we went to espuela de Espanol. Spanish school, again. We always are overwhelmed. So much info, so little time. He even assigned us to write, in detail, about all of our activities today...in Spanish! We don't even know how to say today. But, I found out that word. After flustering awhile, we got back home and swam (or tried). As soon as we touched the water...the absolutely freezing water....the clouds came up and it started raining. It was so random. I hate the rain now! I'm sick of it. Either Johanna, the pool, and/or I are cursed. It's so freaky! We finally got out and took a nice long shower. In fact, a little to long. Johanna was a little late for her violin lesson. OOOPPPSSS!!! Oh, well. She managed. After that, we went to a man's house. He has 44 dogs, and we got to see every one of them! We pet a ton of them, and even had fun with some burros. We left with hands full of hair and slob. Yuck! But they were worth it. We had HAMBURGERS for dinner. Hamburgers! A total American food, in the middle of Mexico. He he! They were really good. I practically inhaled it. Had a overall good day. Wish I would've got sunburned though. Well, going to go play a card game with my cousin, Johanna. Adios amigos!!! :)

Finally, Sun!

The sun finally came out today, yahoo! We took our second day of Espanol classes today. So much to learn, so little time to practice! We wrote 4 pages and got 15 example pages, maybe 10. But it was a lot. Right as I got a word that I was having trouble with, the angels shouted from the sky and the sun came down on us! What a funny coincidence. We had yet another great sandwich of pork. SO delicious! We went swimming after that for about 3-4 hours. It was so cold. We just got out of the pool so this is another short post. Well, pet an Italian hobo!

Spanish Classes

Today was our first day of Spanish classes. It was pretty good. We learned how to pronounce, sort verbs and nouns, and how to spell. We wrote about three pages and cover about 15 of the book. I kept yawning, so our teacher was yapping at me in Spanish. Boy, was it weird. We went back home and I started a lot of art projects for my BFFs. I just KNOW they will love them. We even went swimming. It was so cold, though. 75 degrees, brrrrrr! It was still fun though. We kept pushing each other in. So hilarious. Well going to go read now. Kinda on a tight schedule. Stay cool.....

Puppies!

Peace be with you.
That's what my day started out as. Peace, I'm guessing. Church was another long sermon. I think I might have have fallen asleep. It was about the different translations of the Lord's prayer. Pretty good. After church, Dulci was there. A cute little puppy I wouldn't let go of. She loves to cuddle with me, and even tried to follow me to the car. When she walked, she looked like a rolling puff ball. So adorable! Church, then to Betty's house. Well, I wouldn't call it a house. It was as big (literally) as a horse stall. But very cozy. We met so many kind animals, and saw a truly strange house. Wowza! I think I got obsessed with her cat, Sissy. So lovable! We played Bingo, and I won fake macaroni. I take care of it like a little baby. Such a prize. I also won a one of a kind, 2001, Yes 2001! calendar. yay...
It has cool pics though. We had a good dinner, and now I'm addicted to Solitaire. It's a good game. And I even won. Well, stay awesome!

Rain....I'm Melting!

Today was yet another rainy, slow, YAWN.... day. We got to sleep in once again, but we woke up ourselves, nobody had to wake us up. A normal nutritious breakfast. Cereal, yogurt, and juice. Straight after breakfast, we went to the meat market to get a ton of meat. It took about a million years, but it truly does taste good. We got home and had to stay awhile alone because Grandma and Grandpa had to go fetch some fencing supplies. We watched a movie called The Secret Life of Bees. It was good, but disturbing. I would rate it a 5, though. Grandma and Grandpa got home and then we had lunch. Moo-Shu, last nights dinner. Personally, I thought it was better the second time. We got to stay home after that again, because Grandpa had to take Grandma to her hair appointment. I love her new do! We also cracked a coconut. Apparently it was a good one, but I don't like it. YUK! We just made dinner. It's a really good roast that we made look all pretty. I cut, chopped, scattered, and much more to put it together. (I was helping Johanna.) We put it in about an 15 minutes ago. We are also making handmade ice cream. Yum....I want to eat it now. Well, got to go get into my waiters outfit. See ya'll!

Lazy Days

Yawn.......
Today was a very lazy day. We got to sleep in today, but still had to wake up. I just wanted to sleep my life away. After we got up, I tried my first cereal with yogurt on top! It was amazing! It tasted so sweet, like candy only healthy. After breakfast, I kept on sewing stuff. Just sew, sew, sew! I made 3 bags, a heart, and am making a fishy for my kitten, Roxy. She's gonna love it! We also baked cookies. They are so good. They're the soft chewy kind with the oozing chocolate. YUM!!!
We had lunch after that. It was some really good egg salad. I even wanted more! Johanna and I played Speed and Garbage (a matching game) after lunch a couple times I got addicted, uh-oh. When I kept on sewing my fishy (I'm naming him Smelly) Johanna suggested we watch a movie. We put in two movies before we found one that wasn't in Spanish. It was called My Big Fat Greek Wedding and was really hilarious. I almost fell asleep though. By the time the movie was over, I had almost finished Smelly. Roxy will love him! We got computer time, I took a shower, and at 5 o'clock we are leaving for Turkon's violin concert. It will be really good, I just know it! That wraps it up, I think I will go read now. Buh-BYE!!!



P.S. Grandpa is coming home today! YAY!
P.P.S. I am totally awesome.

Thursday Pleasure

Today was fairly good. We got to sleep in late and ate a delicious breakfast of eggs and bacon with a side of toast and homemade jam. After a short violin practice we all headed to the store. We got a new bed for Chloe and Lucky, fabric, groceries, and other interesting items. We came home and tried to make the bed for the dogs for a couple of hours, I don't know how long. We got frustrated, so decided to just practice sewing. A short period after that we went to choir practice where we are trying to learn a tricky Spanish song. It took us a while to even get the first line, oh well. We just came home and picked some squash and an eggplant. That wraps it up. Sorry this blog is so short. I can't seem to type right today. Leave a comment, as always. :)

Rainy Days

Today was surprisingly busy! We woke up early this morning to go out and ride. We ran to the gate from the road, and I really felt like collapsing on the ground. I did NOT want to run this morning, but I did. And then Sazare attacked me. What a start. Riding was good, and I did a lot of trotting a posting. Johanna forgot her long pants and didn't trot. I think she will definitely remember next time. When I was waiting for my lesson, I found a really interesting book called Blindness. It sounds really good, and very unique. But I have to finish The Shack first. Oh well. It's good, and I will get through it fast. After riding, we went home and ate a fabulous lunch of chicken salad. At first, I thought it was tuna, so I put a ton of mustard on it, and it didn't taste to good. Whoops! At one o'clock, we went downtown to feed the homeless. We sang to them and handed out milk and soup. It was quite an experience, and I was sad to leave it early. After our long travel home, too much traffic, Johanna had her violin lesson and I had my computer lesson. I learned about Excel, Google Translate, and Photoshop. It's so neat! Soon after that, Amelia and Hulia came over. We spent the whole time playing Hand and Foot, Hulia and I against Amelia and Johanna. We beat them by about 5,000 points. So ha! Johanna! It was all really fun. Then we had a great meal of Grandma's famous Chile. Yum...delish! And to top it off, and spectacular dessert of mango crisp. It was wonderful. Well, that concludes my day. Leave a comment!


P.S. Did I mention it was horribly raining all day? If not, it was. It smelled good though.

Tuesdays Equal...SHOPPING!

Tuesday was pretty awesome....as Grandpa would put it. Today was all out shopping. We got to sleep in today.YAY! Then after a quick visit with our friend, Lee, we made our way to the Tuesday market. We bought nothing there put some really good homemade potato chips to tie us over. We really didn't see anything worth the money. But Johanna did buy a really cute bracelet for only 60 pesos. It's really cute and homemade. After walking around for a while we drove home and ate a lovely lunch of spaghetti. Grandma was wearing a white T-shirt and got sauce all over it. On top of that she didn't notice until it was to late, Yikes! After furiously scrubbing the shirt, we drove into town to do some browsing. As you might have guessed, we spent a lot of money there. I bought two extremely rare bags and many other trinkets that WERE worth the money. Like a beautiful bracelet that can transform into many shapes, blue sunglasses, and a little fish that has a bobbing tail! I love it! I also tried on some pretty weird sunglasses. I looked like a total hippie! Heh-Heh. Overall I had a pretty good day. Tonight we are going swimming, so pray for good weather. Ok, leave a comment!

Horse, Horse, Oh! And ANOTHER Horse.

Monday was pretty good. And usually they aren't. So that's a good change. I learned how to lunge a horse. I was pretty good, but kept getting distracted by the poop pretty close to where I was standing. Oh well. Grandpa also left for Merida. He went with his friend Harold. I think we are all going to miss him. Or just rule the house. He-he-he! We came home after lunch and I made my own postcard. It turned out so good! I mailed it off, then we went to see Connie get her lessons at a clinic. It was really cool, and there was this fancy set up outside! We got a little bored because multiple conversations were held in German, Spanish, and only a couple words in English, so we went to take funky pics with my cam. There was one pic when a was sitting down on a tree, and I accidentally sat down on an ant home, They were attacking me! So we went back to the ring. Once we were in the car and on the way home, I found another ant still on me. AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! I fell asleep on the way home because I closed my eyes on the big scary hill and no one told me it was over. Oh well. I was feeling good after that. Well, leave a comment. Thanks, bye.

Sundays

Hola! Today is Sunday. We have been in Mexico for a little over a week! YAY! So, we went to church today. We did one song with choreography that put smiles on everyone's faces. It was a really fun song, so we are going to sing it for the homeless people in SMA. After church, we came home and had a delicious lunch of chicken sandwiches. It was scrum-diddly-ump-tious! We drove to the Sunday market after that. I bought a shirt, scarf, headband, and some nail polish. Oh, and also a lanyard. We had a great time there looking for everything. Johanna bought a really cute shirt that I could fit into. I told her don't be surprised if we go home and you can't find it. HA HA HA! We also went out to dinner. I had a green enchilada, and only ate half of it. It was humongous! Tonight we are going to have a nail night. We got a ton of nail polish and are probably going to be choking from the smell by the time we are done. Well, leave a comment!

Walking Today

Today we slept extremely late this morning. 5 pancakes and a full stomach later, we walked down to the Jardin. We went to the biblioteca (bilingual library) and looked at the art gallery. Pretty interesting stuff. Then we had lunch. It had horrible service. We all just ordered sandwiches and it took 45 minutes! It seemed like they had to grow the lettuce and the tomato, harvest the yeast for the bread, kill the pig for the bacon, and grab the potatoes for the fries! Ugh....it took forever. After a 3 hour lunch, we looked at books. There was not a very good selection, so hopefully my mom can send me a book or two. We then went to a post office to get tickets for a concert that our friend, Turkon, is playing in. Grandma kept going the wrong way, so we ended up doing a lot of walking. (Hopefully she doesn't read this!) We got a taxi after that. It took forever to get one because people kept getting in front of us and taking all the taxis. Finally we got home. Grandma cut up a huge watermelon that took us a long time to eat......I am still full. We dived in the pool after that and stayed in for a really long time, I am still wrinkly. Just got out of the shower and used some of my new bodybutter Nick and Haley gave me for my birthday. Pomegranate and peach.....YUM! Well, have to eat yet another delicious dinner. Update ya'll tomorrow. Bye!


P.S. Tell EVERYONE about this blog! And also.....leave an awesome comment.

WATER PARKS RULE!

Today we went to the funnest water park ever called Xote. It had awesome slides that were actually hot springs water! Haley, Nick, and his friends came with us and we all had a blast. We rode this huge slide that was really wavy and you had to have mats. One Mexican guy had a crush on Haley. Hee-Hee! We went down at LEAST 20 times. Every way you could go. Backwards, forwards, knees, butts, backs, stomachs, and without hands! We once tried to go backwards in front of Nick and his friends. Went to early, and got in trouble. EMBARRASSING! They were laughing their butts off I bet. Overall, we got pretty scraped up. There were other slides that were really slow, so once no-one could see me, I turned and spun and did funky things that I shouldn't have. Hee-Hee. After that, Nick and Haley had to leave and I don't think I will see them again. Sad days....but we will keep in contact. I think everyone had a good day. Hope you guys did too. Talk to ya'll later. Bye!

Pool Party!!!

Hola! Today Johanna and I had our awesome birthday pool party! Boo-YAH! We blew up 57 balloons is 10 minutes, and BOY! were we light headed. We didn't have enough time to hang up the decorations, so Nick and Haley, our friends we met, had to help us. They kept poppin' in our faces, and Nick hates loud sounds. We got in the pool and had a blast! Splish Splash, we were taking a bath! Bum, bum, bum, bum! We got out and had fantastic hamburgers, Haley finished hers for the first time in her life, and then had cake. It was beautifully decorated and very delicious. Presents! Haley and Nick got me bodybutter that smelled like pomegranite. Yum! Grandma and Grandpa got me a huge chocolate kiss, HUGE!, and a weeks art lessons here. Amazing. I think I will take some painting classes. After that we played a huge game of hide and seek. I tries to run, but Haley caught me....oooh! We jumped in the pool after that and had a bunch of contests and pics, jumping on the tubes, boards, and pushing each other in. HAHAHA! It was a blast. We got out a little late, so we were late for church practice. It started raining so much, it flooded! We came home after singing our little hearts out, took a shower, and now I'm blogging! Well, ttyl! BYE!

Relaxing Today

Today was a little bit more relaxing than others. I took a horseback riding lesson and trotted! Yay! It was really fun. We got home, and Johanna practiced her violin for a while. I read and listened to my IPOD. Johanna, Grandma, and I made a cake, then she had her violin lesson when I had my computer lesson. I've learned so much stuff on the computer, and have been on for more than an hour. A really long time. The longest in my life. Really bad for my eyes. They are starting to hurt. But now my blog is prettifull! YAY! Follow me, okay? Well, hope I do something amazing, I don't know.

I'm Here At Mexico

Hey everyone...or the few people who are viewing. Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I was getting ready for Mexico! I have packed, unpacked, and then repacked about 3 times and then how to go. So I think I will foll you in with what you've missed! Here we go:
Day 1- I have to wake up at 4:00 AM in the morning to get ready and catch my plane. You can bet I slept on the plane. Finally, after getting lost, we got to the airport. Many tears were shed and hugs were many. It was very emotional. Sat next to some very nice ladies on the first plane. One just came back from the National Veteran Games in Denver. I got off the first plane and was accompanied by an escort to the second plane. Johanna and I met there, on the second plane. We spent the ride getting to know each other. After what it seemed an hour....which it was....we met up with Grandma and Grandma. On the ride home I slept. We got home, unpacked.....JUMPED in the pool, had dinner, and unfinished packing. I was so tired, I collapsed. LITERALLY!
I'm not going to explain all the details now, I;m kind of in a hurry.
Day 2- Went to church. Met more than half of the congregation. Interesting sermon. Swimming, too. Also met really nice people named Haley and Nick that are actually over now. After a 4 1/2 full stomachs later, we went and helped a poor little village. They might not live well, but they were very happy. Bed after that.
Day 3- Horse back riding lessons. Very fun. After a 2 hour PRIVATE tour. Extraordinary. Another great dinner and sleep.
Day 4- (Today) Tuesday market. YAY! Went with Nick and Haley. Nick bought a T-Shirt. Haley bought shoes, a headband, and nail polish. Johanna bought headbands and nail polish. I bought nail polish and Nick bought a headband for me. Went swimming afterwords. Going to have pizza and a movie! Hope I have a great time!

Grandma is making me blog everyday, so you will be up to date. See ya'll tomorrow!

What We Have Missed

Hey, so I haven't blogged in a while because I haven't had time. So I am filling eveyone in now. Here's what happened over the days I have been missing:
Saturday: Track meet. Whooo! I got 3rd in my high jump. 3rd in the mile. 4th in the medley. And 2nd in the relay. My brother had a baseball game and won. Whooo.... I guess!!!! :D
( Mia says hi to the world! )
Sunday: Mother's day!!!! Got my mom breakfast, a wind chime, made her dinner, and gave her a bag of jewelery. She was happy that day. Also had softball practice. Got a big hit over 2nd basemen's head. Home run!!!!
Monday: School. My favorite class in Language Arts. The teacher is so nice. Also a softball game. Lost by only 2 runs...Oh well. We will win next time.
Tuesday: School...again. The 5th graders came to take a tour of the school. They were really short. I felt so tall and mature. Even though I'm not... hehehe.
Wednesday: Almost a snow day. Track and softball game was canceled...boohooo! At boys and girls club right now.


Well, that leads up today. I hope you guys had a good day. Let's pray for a snow day tomorrow. Bye!!!!

First Day of Blog!

Hello people of the world. Nobody will probably read this because my blogsite was just created and nobody knows about me. It sort of makes me lonely on the web. Oh well. At least I have the computer to chat with. Well, today was normal. Hear the horrible blasting of my alarm in my ear every morning. The part I loath of waking up. Take shower. Go to school. Sit in a hard, plain blue, plastic chair for 6 hours straight trying to keep my eyelids up. Yay...Ride the long treachorous busride from school. BORING!!! Well, I'm probably exaggerating but it sure feels like I'm not. The highlight of my day was probably seeing a kid in my class accidentily fall flat on his butt. Hehehehe.Wait..oh..I take that back. The highlight of my day was probably lunch. We filled one booth with 18 people and started shouting, rough housing, and singing stupid songs. It was a really long adrenaline rush. Everyone was staring, so I felt special. Well, gotta go. Try to figure this blogging thing out. If you read this and can reply, please do. Peace out!
