puerto vallarta

 The last place we went to was puerto vallarta if you couldn't tell by this picture. It was a nice place. Once we got off the boat there was about a half hour before our tour started but there was a flea market right next to where we were. They had what every single one has blankets, toys, and jewlery. We found the leather place and got "name" brand stuff they even told us if we couldn't find the brand we wanted it they could change one for us.



Not sure what was up with the statues but what ever floats their boat right.

Me and my mom on our way to las caletas. It's a cool little area we got free drinks all day long. For some reason they only have pepsi products but we are a coke family.

On the boat the crew put on a show for us it was all too Queen songs.

Just being all cool laying on rocks. Then me holding a monkey that was the coolist thing I think. On another vacation I got to touch a monkey it grabbed my finger but I think holding it was amazing I really like monkeys.

This is me snorkeling I saw a lot the water by the beach wasn't that great but I did see a puffer fish, a Stingray that one was cool cause i wasn't even thinking I would see one and with only being 30 yards out from the shore. Here are a couple pictures of what I saw in the water.

This was my family vacation it was pretty fun lots and when I say lots I mean lots of family togetherness. All in all it was a pretty fun week lots happened and lots of new things tried.

Cabo & Food

There was two stops the first was two days at Cabo. The first day in Cabo when we first got there its like any mexican place. People all says amigo come come look and they don't stop at all then if you make eye contact they follow you no matter how many times you say no, no I'm not interested. We walked around the shops a little bit and saw a baby tiger in a crib before we took a water cab to the beach.

 The very first thing we did was paddle boarded. It was somthing that my mom always wanted to do at least for the last year or so. I never heared her mention it before that but it was really fun to do.

It eneded up taking a lot of work to stay up on them cause of the waves from the ship. I did stay up for awhile on it but then after I got kinda far out I fell, then fell again and again. I just couldn't stand after that. At one point my paddle broke when we went in the guy tried to get my mom to pay $150 for it but when we got it, it was all sticky and had been glued together. But she ended up paying 20 for it. So we now have a story of how we got scamed in mexico.

The next day in cabo we mostly just did the lay out on the beach and swim there was a little shopping but it was all the same stuff from the first day just they people were charging more for it. If we wanted anything we could have just got it from the million people selling things. It was annoying every 2 minutes we had someone holding stuff in your face. I was happy i had my hat and just turned my ipod on, couldn't hear a thing.

Me and my sister under our unbrella (it was so worth the 10 bucks).

Oh I dug a pretty deep hole too.

Thats the end of cabo....

Night was pretty cool they had lots to do besides the walking around the couple shops

Oh and gambling that was fun the well I don't really like the cashless part so I would go to the back and play the quarter drop game. Then the comedy club they had some funny people come in the adult ones were a little more funny then the family ones but they always are just cause anything goes. They had the shows too I would post pictures of that but they didn't allow cameras because of copyright laws.

 Other thigns we did were getting our pictures taken by different photogrophers. Some were so funny and we are sure they could have been on ellen. One was with a grand piano with me and my sister and we were told to look at eachother lovingly so I'm leaning on my arm looking down and she is pretending to play the piano and looking up at me. There was this other one where my mom and sister couldn't stop laughing that one I thought was better. Then swimming on the boat with the cool water slide. The rest of the time was eatting all this weird food.

There was samon which was pretty gross.

 Main lobster with a kind of shrimp. That was interesting not as nasty as the samon.

Main lobster with some type of shrimp with it. Not as bad as the samon.

Oysters Rockafeler EWWWWW is all i have to say about that.

Some tofu Steak that stuff was nasty too.

Some shark that wasn't bad

Now some frog legs probably the best of the gross food because it was more or less like chicken I know its what everyone says but its true

More of my vacation starting on the ship

On the first day once we were on the boat we had to wait to go to our room. They don't like people going in and out of their rooms while they are still delivering all the lugage. So we went and ate (we did a lot of that) after we just went to our room anyway to drop off our bags the ones we carried onto the ship.

Then we wondered around for awhile, well me and my little sister did while my mom got a drink card and laid out.

We went all over the ship and found the spa which was having a raffle for something free. Who can pass up something free?? I can't so we went and got our mom bring her back and she wanted to check out the gym. We ended up having to take a tour of the spa every room and talk to every person that worked in that part. But they had these maniquines

 just had to get a picture with them...

Then it was back to the room to get ready for dinner, take a couple pictures, and watch us set sail.

Vacation

I haven't posted about my vacation! I went on a week long cruise with my mom and little sister. We ended up going to LAX and had to wait probably about 20 minutes till the shuttle bus finally showed up to pick us up. Not to say they didn't have about 30 of the shuttles pass us.So what did we do took pictures of us waiting.

And waiting.....

There was a lot more waiting.......

But finally we made it to the ship.. well the line to wait in till we could get onto the ship and it was cold. When we first got there the area the suttle droped us off at was in the sun and warm so we all took off our jackets and checked them to be delivered to our room.

We ended up waiting about two hours but we picked out interesting people that would be on the boat with us. People that go on cruises are alway interesting people. We found a guy with boobs that liked to stick his chest out, a bossy old lady with her husband who looked like he didn't know what was going on.Then the couples that all looked just mad.

project, bike ....

I should start posting on here more sometimes I just forget or don't have anything to say. I started sewing pajama pants and its not easy I would rather just go buy a new pair and have them done and nice. But now I have a half done pair but they are good the pockets are small but oh well. The next thing I'm going to try is a bag for my scrapbook. Luckly I have a little sister who wants to do them.

I'm really wanting to buy a bike to start going on bike rides it would be nice and I live out in no where so long, long roads bike on. Maybe I could find something to bike to. So I've looked on ksl and DANG the bikes on there are so much people are putting them on there for 300+. I wouldn't but a used bike for more then ones on walmart for.

Has anyone ever noticed that when you have this idea to do something or say something. You just are amazed cause its the best thing you ever thought of or wanted to do. But the thing is you think of it during the worst time when you cant write it down. Like in the shower or your sleeping wake up but fall back asleep. I need to get water proof paper and a tape recorder and tie them on my foot so it will always be there waiting for me to use.

painting projects, why I don't go to my gym and weird-o lady at work

So I finally started to paint some of the wood projects I have again. I should have enough for this week ha ha ha and I have 10 dollars off to the store SWEET!!! I know. I think I will go there on monday to see their 4th of july things. There isn't many things at my house for hollidays but there will be! Now I just need to try painting on a canvas there is a painting tv show its on about 4 in the morning on sundays maybe I will tevo that. It's a fun hobby. I finally found one that I enjoy doing for more then a week or month I've done so many probably 60 last year. But this one I can do by myself or with others and it doesn't change. I do scrapbooking kinda in 4 months I've got 1 1/2 pages done I'm on a roll.

The reason I don't go to my gym really anymore and I think a lot of you don't go to yours. At mine you have a row of elipticals then infront of that are the treadmills. If you go anytime in the morning there are all the really little (in shape) housewives, the EMT's, and the Firemen. There is no way I can compete with that. Everyone always says its not a competition blah blah blah. You all know if someone is next to you on a machine you look to see what they are doing and if your doing better then they are and their more in shape you are like "hellz ya" and if your not you try to. Oh, back to why I never go is all the elipticals are always taken by all the in shape people so if I don't want to sit and do the weird bike thing that no one does cause its like broken my other choice is weights. I like cardio better so I could get on the treadmill with all these in shape people behind me then you have me on the treadmill doing my "jiggle, jiggle, jiggle, ya". So I don't go.

At work today this lady is like the most needy person ever. Every simple task she needs help I mean I cooked her hot dogs because she couldn't "see" the buttons on the microwave. So she has had me do like 10 thigs for her and I have to do my job on top of that. Not hard casue it was a slow night but still. It was annoying cause she got so many phone calls and she never answered half so they all bounced back to me so that turned her 30 calls into 60. Anyways when I started the microwave for her she asked if I could do her a favor I said sure. She hands me a bag of food and says eat this. I kept saying oh no thats ok, no thank you, no but thank you. She didn't accept any of these and made me take the food then gave me a hug. I don't like when customers touch me there stangers. I don't know where they have been or touched its kinda gross, even wrose when they smell. When I got back up front I looked in the bag there was raisin bran (which I do like), unripe banana's, over-ripe banana's and browning salad lettus. So no one would want this besides the raisin bran.

lunch with grandma, and such

Today I went to lunch with my grandma. We went to chuck-a-rama because she loves it and I got to drive her jeep which was weird I'm so used to my little car. I liked it too it was mexican day or something and I have an addiction to spicy food. She talked to me for awhile about her mom and dad then some other relatives. Then she talked about this one who is part of the family but she isn't really I'm not sure the whole thing there all I know is this lady that I may or may not be related to talks a mile a minute and never stops.
After we are done eatting I ran her to target to get some stuff to make a salad for my uncle.

It was a little weird when my uncle got there I mean I haven't seen anyone on that side of my family in 10 years besides my grandma my cousin and her mom. We talked a little then he asked if I have talked to his wife laitly cause she was saying how somethings I "do" like my dad. But I haven't seen her since I last saw him so I think they meant looks whise cause then they started saying things which I don't see or ones that I think I got from my mom. They say I got the best of both worlds my moms beautiful (she is) and my dads handsome (I guess). The only weird part was when he asked when the last time I saw my dad and I told him 10 years then he said well he looks a lot like me ha ha ha. Then we started talking about traveling and I have really only gone to mexico and the florida keys anyways my grandma is talking about the alanta airport and it was funny because shes "like you get off the plane and there are so many black people you think where has this plane taken me". Then my uncle had to go back to work but not before inviting me to his kids baptism pretty sure that was a just becasue I was standing there kinda invite.

Then I started getting told about my family again by my grandma. She told me how her name is on ellis island (not sure how you spell that), her mom (I think it was) sang opera, somethings about my grandpa. When I had to go she leant me this book she wrote about all the stories she remembers from the war they are pretty interesting to hear I haven't started to read them yet becasue I'm started a different book yeasterday.

Thats all I'm going to write I'm out of york pepperment patties :(
