I'm back! My 2012 vacation post. Its gonna be a long one!

Hi guys!


I'm back. It feels so good to be home. I really missed my bed and talking to Anastasiya and Wesley everyday and Ginny because she's been at the beach too. I missed my dogs and my fish and I missed watching Ellen. I just missed my whole usual routine. But anyway, here is a look at my week! I have 225 pictures for you guys. I am so happy that I took so many pictures! But lets get started because this post is going to take me like an hour.

Monday:

Wait. Monday? Why'd I start at Monday? LOL OK...

Friday:

On Friday we got up and got everything all packed. Then we made sure the house was all clean. After that we went down to my aunts house, they live really close, and we helped her get everything packed up in her van because her husband was at work and she has a 3 year old and a 4 year old. So we helped her get everything packed up and then she drove down to our house to help us get everything all packed up. After everything was packed in both vans we just had to wait for my uncle and dad to get back from work so we could leave. They both got home before 1 so we got in our cars and headed to the hotel we were staying in that night. The hotel was alright. I mean I'm sure there's nicer ones. It had a pool so we went swimming and then ate dinner and then swam more but after that we just hung out in the hotel room for awhile. By we I mean the 4 of us and then my 2 cousins Evie and Wes. It was fun I suppose. We stayed up until about 12 and then went to bed.

Saturday:

On Saturday we got up at about 8, got ready, packed up everything we had unpacked, and headed off to Target to get...THE DELUXE EDITION OF THE HUNGER GAMES!!!!!! Guys I was so excited to get this movie! OMG! We turned it on as soon as we got in the car. It was Katelyn and TJ's first time seeing it and they both loved it. Such an awesometastic movie! But anyway...we were in the car for like 3 hours because we had already driven half way there. In the car I read, watched THG, and I think I talked to Wesley on my dads phone but that might have been Friday. I can't quite remember, But ya. So when we got to the place we were going (I'm just not gonna say it), we met up with the rest of my family at this restaurant for lunch. It was fun because we got to start off our vacation all together. At one point Leanna and I were laughing about something, I don't remember what it was, and my uncle decided to join in. So he's pretending to laugh and all of a sudden just starts choking! It was so funny! He was all embarrassed. Haha. I ate a lot of tomatoes that day because Leanna, Brandon, and I all got burgers and they had tomatoes on them but Leanna and Brandon don't like tomatoes so I ate theirs. Not that you guys care though. Once we finished lunch we went to our favorite souvenir shop and got some stuff. I got an anklet, shirt, and necklace. After we did all the woman went to Food Lion to get the weeks groceries while all of the men and children went and picked up the key, went to the house, and started unpacking. Then we all got into our suits and got in our pool. For dinner we ordered pizza and then we all just hung out downstairs until we went to bed. It had been a long day.

Sunday:

This day was so long. We started the day really early at like 9. We went to the beach and played in the ocean for awhile. It was a lot of fun. When we came home from the beach it was only 12:45 and we were all like woah! Because we thought it was like 3 or 4. So then we were in the pool and hot tub for the rest of the day. My parents made dinner tonight. Steak, salad, shrimp, bubble bread, and umm I think that's it. So yeah that was basically our Sunday.

Monday:

Definitely went by a lot quicker. We pretty much did the same exact thing as Sunday. My aunt Mary and uncle Tom made dinner today. Pork BBQ sandwiches, coleslaw, potato salad, and deviled eggs. We attempted to play hide and seek in the dark this day but TJ, Anthony, and Aubrey were scared so we couldn't.

Tuesday:

We went to the beach for awhile and then hung out at the pool. My aunt Megan and uncle Rob made dinner. Walking tacos and shredded beef tacos. It rained this day so we played hide and seek on the decks outside which was a lot of fun.

Wednesday:

We stayed at the beach all day! It was soo fun. Oh but before we went to the beach we went out to some more shops and I got 2 new pairs of sunglasses! But yeah we had tons of fun at the beach. My mom and my aunts did a cartwheel competition which was so funny and then everyone got in the ocean which was a lot of fun. When we got back to the house Leanna, Katelyn, Aubrey, and me all put on sunglasses, the same kind but different colors, and sang at the top of our lungs. It was so fun! My aunt Amy and her boyfriend Ben made Cincinnati chili for dinner which was sooo good!!

Thursday:

Went to the beach and then the pool and hot tub. At the beach I was knocked under water by a wave, had my bathing suit bottoms pulled down to my ankles, thrown in the air, did the worm in mid air, and then thrown back down. It was traumatizing. Evie threw a dance party. Our neighbors Ms. Amy and Mr. Mark made dinner. It was chicken and potatoes. Very delicious. And we had pineapple. I love pineapple! Brandon showed us this app he has on his iPad, some rap thing so we played with that for a little.

Friday:

We went go carting in the morning! It was so fun but I ran into the railing and bit my tongue and my sunglasses flew off my face but luckily Ben got them for me. But it was so fun and I want to do it again! After that we went to the beach and then swam for awhile. Then we packed everything up. After that we went out to eat at this seafood restaurant which was a lot of fun. Then we walked down to the beach one last time, took showers, and went to bed.

So ya this morning I got up at 5, loaded everything into the car, and headed home. It was a really fun trip. But now it's time for pictures.

TTYL!

We had this huge field all to ourselves. Although we never did use it.

And we had horseshoes. Never used that either.

She was doing pull ups on these stairs all week

I told her to pose and this is what I got
