I figured i should give a long update about my life.
After I left Wichita last week, I kidnapped Uyen and left for Texas to San Antonio where I have been ever since.
We have done a variety of things to amuse ourselves
We have walked the dog, done household things, slept on the living room floor, made cookies, and other random things.
We have gone shopping to the awesome San Antonio malls
We went to the RiverWalk and the Alamo last friday
on saturday we went to flea markets and the air force base
sunday was church and watching fun with dick and jane haha
monday we left for mexico and bought things
we had fun standing on the line that was between mexico and the usa that wasnt really a part of any place and that was kinda funny and we took pictures of it
uyen had fun with people and bargaining to lower her prices of things and we used our spanish to the fullest
she went to this one lace where she wanted something for 12 bucks and the guy was like i will give it to your for 12 if you give me un beso (a kiss) so she gave him a kiss on the cheek and got her stuff for 12 bucks
we went to paleterias and got the most awesome pelatas i got chocolate and uyen got fresa and my mum and dad got mango
we foudn a dulceria and i got cachetada para edgar and then we got some watermelon shaped lolipop thangs that are really good
we both bought skirts with the mexican flag design on them that are red & white and green
they are really cool and i think both of us should take pictures in them or something
we ate at don marcello's mexican restaurant and it was sweetly amazing and the tacos were authentic with corn tortillas and really spicy sauce... ahh man
we also found the panaderia and bought stuff there
it was like comida city man
today we got back from mexico and had a list of things to do at home... like dig the sod and grass up from this plot and then move it to the back yard and replace dirt around it to make an area for a garden. we used lots of water and were very messy
i took a picture and should post it at some point of uyen and i looking very tired and stuff and wet and disgusting it is really funny to look at
in the process i fell on the shovel and cut a really big chunk outta the bottom of my foot and there was blood all over yay for me being a clutz
i have spent the last week learning to drive a stick shift or manual car which shall be mine this upcoming fall... eek
tomorrow uyen and i alre following my dad around work at the air force because we can
i think thursday is six flags day and then saturday it is back to good old wichita for 2 days and then off to new mexico with my church for youth camp yay
i love summer
