so i have to start with my vacation. so far this summer has been a BLAST!!

June 16th: Today is the day we leave for hilton head island, SC baby!! my dad likes us to leave early in the morning so we can get there early also.  So i never go to bed until we leave :) After i packed that night, i went over to the band house and hung out with my homies.  we didnt do much of anything like usual but sit around and be dumb.   I can't really remember what happened this day.. but i think earlier this week was the event where we had a giant punked between all the members of BWF and tom.. it started with drew coming in and acting drunk.. then everyone getting pissed.. stiffler taking the boys out back and "telling them the band was breaking up", Tom "storming out of the house" then when he comes back, stiffler and matt going at it in the living room.. and all ending with matt, yet once again, tearing off this white t shirt.  that kid is nuts. Anyway, i hardley made it back in time to leave because on the way back i had to buy towels at meijer because we didnt have any for vacation! i bought these huge ones that were on sale woo. good stuff. then my family and sam all piled into our van (me and nat in the back of course) said a prayer, and left for vacation!! haha all i remember is dad getting pulled over for speeding, and getting off with a warning. mom was mad about that haha. last time we went to SC he got pulled over for speeding and got a ticket. well we woke up that morning in the car and went to eat breakfast at mcdonalds like usual. i got sweet tea in celebration of the south and a burrito and monkey bread. that stuff is the shiz. we dont have it up here at mcdonalds.

we always like to stay for 8 days instead of 7. my dad likes the extra day. so we get to the hotel and its absolutly beautiful out. fresh lemonade is in the lobby, and we all run upstairs to see our view.  we had this sweet ocean/pool view. a guy was singing country songs down at the pool it was awesome.  after we all got settled in, we went down to the pool and just relaxed. it was amazing. i love hotels that cater to me.  we went swimming for a bit, then after a while all went upstairs. i think this was the day we ordered pizza to the room.  then we all went on a night swim that night. there was a wedding going on. we swam for a long time that night. and of course sonia and sam met boys.. surprisingly i didnt go to the beach today. well i guess i went out to pee one time. but thats it.

June 17th: happy father's day! today was check out day for our hotel.. but before check out we all hung out by the pool and ate amazing nachos with everything on them.  i also got a bananna smoothie.  me and nat had a goggles time in the 14 ft pool, and we ran into some people that my dad works with.  i also swam the length of the entire pool underwater. it was pretty intense. i am a beast. after being lazy we all checked out and and went to fudruckers. i had a veggie burger and root beer float. my dad hates root beer i dont get it. we arrived at our condo tonight and unpacked. thats about all. i think we may have went to the pool and ordered out bikes too..

JUne 18th (monday): today was a pool day.  no beach. yea i dont remember too much of this day except that i wore a lot of sunscreen, and then we all ate at this amazing mexican place called mi tierra.  when we got back we all played a game of pit! the stocks game.. haha this game never gets old. oh and i won, haha i kept trading the bear to sonia right before someone won, and then she finally got me back.. but i still won :)

June 19th: another pool day. i think every day is a pool day. but yea, no beach yet.  nat and dad kept working out but i just wasnt feelin it.  tonight we ate at a sweet chinese place called yumyum or something weird like that.  then we all went back and played that game.. where you describe the word but you cant say it.. i forget what its called.. oh well. me nat and sam were on a team, and we lost. barely though!  one of these days we also went shopping at the bi lo. it wasnt too exciting because i didnt find my arizona tea. dumbbbb

June 20th: Nico and Cata had just gotten back from germany the night before, and were supposed to have arrived in SC yesterday.. but instaed they arrived today with diana.  it was a good time. we moved diana into our room, and sonia and sam got kicked out of thier room and moved to the pull out bed.  it was exciting to have everyone in the house! today was  a nice day.  a pool day.  we still hadnt been to the beach yet i dont think. after swimming at the pool a while we all went back to eat, and dad made his spaghetti for everyone. it was real good. nico and cata went to bed early beecause they were tired of driving.. and we all just hung out.. i think there may have been a game of up and down too..

June 21st (thursday): today was a pool AND beach day.  there was a chance of rain, so we all rode to the beach in the morning.  it was an amazing day for the ocean. I think it had stormed so the waves were huge. we all got in. the current was so strong though that we kept moving sideways. we took the boogy boards out for a while but i only got one good wave.  the rest of the time was spent playing in the waves. we  could see a storm waaaay out in the ocean, aand when it finallly got  to us, we had to leave because you could tell it was going to storm.  it was a good day at the beach. i love swimming in the ocean. after a while though i stopped trying to make my hair go in one direction beecause the waves were too powerful. when we got back to our towels, they were covered with sand.  after we rode back, i got in the pool, but the sand didnt come out of my bathing suit.  we went to the closest pool this vacation beecause there were always a million kids at the other one.  and at the back of the pool there was a pond where a million turtles lived, and they always swam up to the shore when you stood near them.  cuteness.  tonight i think we just ate pizza.  hawaiian and peporoni. yummm.. i spent the rest of the night uploading pictures while dad diana mom and nat played up and down.  today me and nat rode to the ocean at sunset, it was beautiful.  one of my favorite times to be at the beach. i love east coast beaches.  we took lots of pictures of us messing around.  doing cartwheels and stuff.riding back was really dark though!

June 22: this morning we all rode to harbor town! since our ice cream place was no longer in business, we had ice cream at the cinnimon bear shop.  i had raspberry sorbet it was amazing.  we also went into the stores. me and diana got shirts. not like i need another shirt or anything.. but it was sweet and said alligator patrol. i later found out that my friend emma got the same one. lame. when we got back we all went to the pool.  i think this was the day that dad fell over in his lawn chair and everyone laughed at him.  he couldnt get up though because there were chairs all around him hahaha. diana just stood there and laughed. oh man. my family.  and every now and then i would see those bright green leapin lizards and try to catch them. those bandits are too fast for me. tonight we had grilled out. dad burnt the burgers, but they were still real good. and we had fries. freaking yum. all us girls went to the beach again at dusk. so pretty! and then tonight i played up the most ridiculous game of up and down with diana, dad, and natalie.  me and dad were on a team and we were seriously kicking butt the whole game.. then nat and diana gualpe the last two turns, and tied us! then we had a tie breaker with one card. and who wins? them! so cheap.. that game in unpredictable.

June 23: today was our last day at hilton head  :( we all got up and i went on a bike ride with diana. we went through the southern neighborhoods with the amazing southern homes! i took pictures of diana and then we went to the beach and took more pictures! we all went to the pool and saw the "laughing ladies" my dad called them (the women who laughed when he fell back on his chair). dad nico cata and diana ended up going to the beach, and i stayed at the pool. i was alone for a while, but it was mad relaxing oh man. they came back later on and swam with me.  then everyone left and me and diana were the only ones left.  we went back to the house, and nico cata and diana left around 5 pm.  then we all went back to our mexican restuarant and ate dinner for the last time on vacation.  we got back and us girls went to the beach, then back home to pack.  

June 24: we left at around 4 am instead of 3am because dads alarm didnt go off! i like sleeping in the car at night because you wake up and are almost home.  that night we got home around 7 or something and hung out at home.  i went over to the house for a little bit.

and that was my vacation!
