Tubing!

Three, different spots where I was bleeding. Two, very bashed up shins. One, crazy family hurtling down rapids. and Zero, pictures to prove it. As you may of guessed we went tubing. Lots of bruises. Lots of screams. Lots of spills. It was scary, and yet we survived and still managed to have fun. At first I didn't think it would be that fun.(stupid of me) Then I got tossed off my tube, bruised my but, scraped my shins, and was nearly drowned. Then I thought it was fun. Why? Because its exhilarating when you're so close to you're brains being bashed out while you clutch the edge of you're tube for over an hour, flying past razor sharp rocks threatening you're very existence! It's awesome. I wore a helmet and I'm thankful for it, because there are spots, where you go under, and you come up without a tube, in the middle of the rapids. The river is very cold, and even in the tropics you're lips can turn blue. Other than that, my day was uneventful : )

My dog


This is Chiquita pronounced (chick-ee-ta ) meaning little dog. Her name is kinda ironic for two reasons. One, she's not a little dog Two, our dominican neighbors have two dogs named Lassie and George. Her soulders come to about knee height on us. She is very jumpy and she loves couches. As you can see.

Soccer camp

We have finished soccer camp! Both Brodie and I did great, my team finished first and Brodie's team finished second. It was a grueling workout and in the end our reward was that we could sit on a tile floor for two hours listening to a completly spanish movie. We also got a shirt that said 2005 fall kickoff. True Dominican style, Out dated clothing. The main character's name in the movie was named Santiago wich happens to be the the place that i'm going today. YAY!
