Helloo MaMa!!

Friday:

Weh had my cousins from AZ come over (we only get to see them about once a year and that started maybe three years ago) and lets just put it this way, they are the most energized/dangerous pair of boys I have met. EVER. My sister had an essay-writing class from 9-12, so I had to be up to make sure nothing caught on fire/exploded while she and my mother were gone. When my mother came back from dropping her off, all of us got to go on an exciting trip to work in her classroom!! We spent about 2 hours there, then went to Chili's for lunch. After that we decided to go to the Wave (a waterpark) for a couple of hours. We then went home to drop the thing up, pick up my dad and go to the beach where we cooked hot dogs and smores. By the time we got back, it was almost midnight. I still had to take a shower.... I brang the camera to the Wave, but totally forgot it when we went to the beach, I was so mad at myself! Did I mention yesterday the boys broke a $300 screen door on Thursday? Yeah well.........

Here are the pics from the wave:

Silly Picture!

Volleyball Prep and Summer Schedule

Mon. Tue. Wed. and Thur., I played Volleyball for three hours. There's absoulutely NOTHING like waking up sore in the morning. The coach that I've been working with will be my coach for the school team, so in a way, tryouts have already begun. I went home with my cousin Gaby for two days; that was kinda fun. When she came to sleep over at our house, she sprained her ankle running and had to go home. Fun...... I'll be doing 2 volleyball camps next week, one from 9-11 and one from 4-6. Somewhere in there I supposed to take a Spanish camp. We've already done the family vacation thing for this year, so we're getting back to work. Bri is taking an essay writing and study skills class, I'm taking volleyball and language camps, I don't know what Nico's doing but I'm sure there's something.I'm going to start on an EXPLO scrapbook, where I can put pics of the Welleseley college campus and groups pics of my friends and I.
