I'm Home!

We had a great trip. We ended up leaving at like 7:30am on Sunday because Dad wasn't feeling well. We got to L.A. at about 1:30am on Monday. We parked in a gas station to sleep for a while but didn't fell very comfortable so Dad decided to go a little farther to my uncles house and sleep in hi driveway. Dad couldn't get comfortable in the cramped car and not wanting to disturb my uncle and Aunt He decide to sleep in there van. Well about a minute later a car drove into the drive way. My Uncle had just happened to get home from picking up someone from the Airport in the middle of the night at the same time that we were there. Dad Gave my Uncle and Cousin a pretty good scare. He would have given us a place to sleep but they already had a lot of company and there was nowhere to sleep. We slept in the car a little longer then went to find the place where we were dropping off the excursion. We ate Breakfast then went and Dropped off the excursion at the guys house. After that we went shopping to buy Christmas Presents for the people in Mexico. Then finally we got to Mexico and got a Hotel room in a resort on the beach it was pretty awesome. On Tuesday We went to see all our old friends and give them Christmas presents. That was a lot of fun. It's crazy how different yet how much the same everyone is. It happened to be Heidie's (one of the Ladies) Birthday so we celebrated with her. On Wednesday we just hung out at the beach and hot tub. It was pretty awesome. Then we went shopping at the market. We went to the fish market and that was pretty grouse. Some of the fish were still alive, you could see them breathing. We left to come home on Christmas day. That was the only day that sucked, and it wasn't just because it was Christmas it was just a bad day. I cried. But Friday Was a great day even though we were traveling we had a lot of fun just playing and coloring and reading in the car. We ate at a Hamburger place called Blake's. it was yummy. The sign was a held up by a tall man (It was a fake man not a real one)I suppose this was Blake. We got home at 1:30 this morning.

And that was my trip. We are celebrating Christmas tommarow after Church It will be a little wierd but I have a feeling it will be great! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Mexico

I guess I am going to be gone over Christmas. My Dad needs to deliver an Excursion to L.A. The whole family is going except for Mom and Lilly and Lanie. We are going to drop off The Excursion then go down to Mexico to spend a couple of days. We will be back on Christmas night, So I guess our family will be celebrating a little late. I hope you all have a Very Merry Christmas, and an Amazing New Year (Happy Anniversary Brandon and Rachael!). See you next year Hopefully sooner!

Lots of Love,
Maria aka. Maud, Dot, Maudi, Maranda, Mariah, Maudi-Dot...
