when you get together 16 of your closest relatives, things are bound to be a little crazy.
This weekend I went down to Lompoc for a family reunion/going away party.
all the cousins were there along with grandparents to say goodbye to my uncle, because in three weeks he will be shipping out for four months to Iraq.
My cousins and I have all grown up so much and the older ones are finally getting along. Matt has to be the coolest cousin ever. hes only 14 but he's such a blast to hang out with. he plays guitar and has a surprisingly good taste in music and can be very grown up. But at the same time I could go out side with him and have scooter races and be just like a little kid.
My family is pretty messed up. everyone was trying to hide their fear for my uncle. act like everything was fine, but I know that they were just hiding the pain from my other uncle dying in the marines.
all in all though it was a good time
on the last day(yesterday) we went to pismo and went boogie boarding for 4 hours, probably the best time of my life.
I dont know when my mom will finally get off my back.... I'm just hoping soon, because, to be honost, I think she's part of the problem.
