That REALLY sucks about the pictures, Mary, but it sounds like you had the greatest time!! I am SO happy for you. I know I'm late, but I'm really glad to hear you had a good time. I've never been snorkeling. The thought of doing it scares me. But I'm so so so so happy you had a great time. It sounds like such a neat experience. I'm really excited about the pictures too!

That sounds delicious!

And that's good, Alyssa.

Good news: Dallas was SO much freaking fun. I haven't been on a vacation with my family in three years and it was so nice to finally get one even though it was only for three-ish days. We had the greatest time. March 26th was easily the best day of the year. It was the day we got there. The three hour drive was a blast and then we met my dad in Dallas and signed him up for his half marathon, hunted down a hotel, and then went to eat at this INCREDIBLE Italian restaurant. The entire day we laughed literally nonstop. It was the best. And then the next day we got up super early, my dad ran his half marathon and did AMAZING and then Brett Michaels(I don't know if you know who that is)performed and it was so cool! We were right in the front and it was a blast. Afterward we went to the indoor water park(Great Wolf Lodge if you want to look it up)and it was so great. We spent hours sliding and then my brothers and I spent the rest of the night at the arcade. I can't even tell you the last time I was in an arcade. It was the best. We were so determined to win this stuffed animal for my mom and it was a ton of tickets so we were there for hours just playing different games and having fun. The next morning we spent another few hours in the water park. It was great. There was this lifeguard and he was so entertaining and funny and cute. There was a lot of cute guys and lifeguards there. I wasn't complaining.

ANYWAYS. It was just a ton of fun. I loved it. I wish everyday could be that much fun, you know? It was really sad coming back. I love having that much fun with my family. I didn't want it to end. I'm so happy we got to go though.

And golf camp starts this weekend so I'm super super excited about that!

AND I MISSED YOU GUYS!!!

[pony-horse]

WE MISSED YOU TOO RACH!!

but that sounds like a TON of fun! seriously, I'm so glad you had such a great time! and we have a  Great Wolf Lodge here to, but I've never gone becuase it's usually full of tourists and it's hard to get a decent room (thats what I get for living beside Niagara Falls ) but that so great! did you guys end up getting a stuffed animal?

and have fun at camp!

good news - well, Daniel got into college, which we were pretty nervous about, so YAY! not much else these past few days have been pretty banal

Thanks, Mary!! Someday you need to go to yours. It is one of my absolute favorite places. It's a blast. You'd love it. And yeah. We got two stuffed animals. One for my mom and one for me. We ended up only a few tickets short for the one I wanted, but I used my puppy dog eyes and the boy gave it to me.

That's so great, Mary!!! I'm super happy to hear that!

Good news: Won't get into any details, but golf was FANTASTIC today. Beyond fantastic. I had the best time.

That's so great, Rach. Honestly. And haha ohhh nice:) What's your animal look like? I love water parks.....they make me feel like a little kid. Haha. It's great that your family had that time together.

That's great Mary!

And good Rach. I'd love to hear more, though.

Good news: Well, it was last weekend. But I went up to that camp I'll be at this summer (50ish days!) for the Staff Training Retreat and ohhh my gosh. Best weekend of my life. Like. It wasn't even that special. We didn't do anything special but it was just.....it was just really good for me. And the people I'm gonna be working with are really super nice and I was outgoing and made friends.....it was just really good guys, I can't even tell you how excited I am for this summer. I'll catch myself thinking of how I'm gonna pack and when I'll come home and what I'll do there and I just....I can't wait. Seriously..

Oh!! Annnd I'm in Drivers Ed now and so I'll be driving soonish. I'm getting more confident about that. Also I don't know if I told you ((probably did)), but I went to my band competition thing and did really well. And I did well on my tests so I get out of some finals. School is going well. If I get all A's this quarter that'll be straight A's all year. It's getting nice out here and so far this quarter is really good
