This week has been the hardest. It is so hard to leave my family for a long period of time. I know they are use to it but I am not. I love my family so much and would do anything for them. I am so grateful that I was blessed with such a loving, caring and accepting family.
They through a farewell party for me and it was so much fun. My grandpa (The Grill/Smoke Master) smoked ribs, briskets and pork shoulders. We also had mac and cheese, corn casserole and baked beans. We can't forget Publix CUPCAKES!!! We know how to through a party!
They then surprised me with an 64gb iPod touch for the World Race. My grandpa made sure that I knew I needed to download Tango.

My Family!
My cousins kept asking me to go out and have coffee, so we made it a cousins night out. They wore us out as you can see…it is all over my sister's face.
Cousins night out. Don't let those smiles fool you….those little girls are a trip…they are also a joy.
My first time jet skiing! We went to Sanibel island and had a very good time.
My cousins Samuel and Kimber. Samuel is a pretty good driver.
