You're Fired!

So it is official, if I were a professional blogger, I would be fired. I mean honestly it has been like a month since I have updated. How ridiculous. There is so much to tell you all and at the same time, not much to say at all because really, I don't think you all really car about my strange travels. Oh well, you will just have to sit through my crazy antics. Let's see, my first trip was one of great trials and tribulation. I went on a mission trip to New Mexico with my church. It sounds like a lot of fun in theory, but in all actuality it is a lot of work. I met two children while working on an Indian reservation, KC and Tony. Neither of them really spoke English, but through their hugs and smiles, they both touched my heart. Their great grandmother, Margaret, spoke very kind words to the ten teens and three adults who went on the trip with us. She bestowed upon us her wisdom of the ages and told us that any one of us would be welcome in her or her family's home for the rest of our lives because we helped her when she no longer could help herself. Her words were incredible touching and even brought a few of the boys to tears. We also had the oppurtunity to help at the local senior center for the tribes elders. Megan and I had fun doing there aerobics with them.
After New Mexico, I had a week at home to clean, pack, and stock up on essentials before I flew cross-country to beautiful New York. It rained a lot, which was refreshing compared to the extremely high temperature at home. I got to see a lot of family and got to stay at my home away from home at my cousins Carmen and Andrew's house along with my favorite children in the world, Sophia, Alex, Andrew, and Oscar. It will be hard to go a full year without seeing them again.
While I was back-east there was also a handful of birthdays to celebrate. First off my cousin Eliza, then my grandma turned an impressive 90, my brothers birthday, and then finally my fathers birthday. I also celebrated my half birthday!
The second week in New York was spent traveling around New England, as well as, seeing my brother's new stomping grounds seeing as he is moving in ten days. It will be hard to have him so far away, especially on my mother, but it is exciting to see him embark on this new journey. I know that he will be amazing at grad school. We also got to go the Ben and Jerry's Factory, the adorable Burlington(Vermont), Salem, and Boston.
I know, lots of traveling. It might seem like that would be all one could pack into one summer, but I actually have more plans. You see I got back at noon, and I leave Tuesday night for comic con! Another terribly exciting trip! I am trying not to get too excited, but that is proving to be extremely difficult.
Anywho, I will try and write from sunny San Diego and provide pictures of amazing celebrities!
