Yesterday was really fun we went to soccer had a lots of fun and then we went to a pharmacy to get some tape for my fingers and some chips and then went home. Then I went climbing and learned a lot of stuff there. Then we went out walking and had the yummiest crepes ever.


Today was our last of soccer practice and we just scrimmaged the whole day which everybody liked. I decided not to go to climbing because I was really tired cause I got to sleep late.We basically had a quiet day watching the opening ceremony of the olympics which was awesome and then we ordered pizza and had a quiet night. I also forgot: today I felt a little nauseated and threw up some chicken broth.

Here's picture of today when we played. Mario (one of our friends) shot at the goalie and it bounced out and then I barely shot past the goalkeepers arms.

I forgot I also went to climbing jim again and had another pound of fun here
Yesterday Cowjie got stuck on a ledge again and we had to save him again!Then today we went to soccer again and played some more soccer and practice of course too.Then at  night we went to another of the 9 days of our friends traditional funeral.Also the really cute baby of the person that died kept grabbing me and Mina and then once tugged on my hair.
Today we had to play soccer again funnily enough almost half the kids weren't there!Today he told us to practice chipping it.We had some trouble but at the end of the day we both got it.After that I decided not to go climbing.Then after we ate lunch we played more hearts.

Today we did some weird drills that were hard but a little fun too.After that we played a game of soccer  and when we tied we did penalty kicks and it was really fun.I then went to climbing and had a lot of fun there too.Then we came home and played  some more hearts and then fell asleep.

Today we woke up and went to a funeral but also it was a party.They sang, put down pine needles and candles and then talked and ate food.Then after we went home we played hearts and had lunch.Then all of a sudden we realized that it was 6:40 and that we had a second funeral/party at 7:00 so we hurriedly ate some food and then walked to their house.We were late to the party and used my mom as an excuse that she was sick even though she was.They had a lot of candles too. The son of the father who died was only 8 monsth old and and was really cute. The Mexican here also think it's really funny that I can go cross eyed. Also a Mexican custom is that after  they get to know you they kiss you on the cheek. I think it's cool how different countries have different customs of mourning and parties etc. Also here is a link of someone training an  amazing pig that is less than 1 year old!

today at soccer camp we had a lot of fun.We practiced a lot of dribbling and kicking.Then later we did a scrimmage and when we lost no one got mad at me for anything during or after the game the game.
I think that mexican people tend be a lot nicer than american people because they welcomed us right away.

At our soccer practice the drills weren't very fun but will help us a lot.Also my dad approves of the drills.Then when we scrimmaged Mina scored 3 goals and I scored 2 goals a 1 assist too Mina.



Then at six we saw a movie at  a rock  climbing jim and then the people set up a competition and I tied for second place and got a free 1 day pass and Mina did well too.

Hi today we tried to find a soccer camp but the one we heard of practiced a lot of sports so we didn't do that one because we only wanted soccer. really close to our  house was a rock climbing jim so we are going to go there and take lessons there too.After that we were kicking around and we saw a coach and some kids so we went over to talk to them to see if we could maybe play with them some time and they said that both of us could and my sister might play with boys your age.

After that we went to the store got popcorn and one with some salsa that was pretty good then we did the the classic boring shopping trip

Today we visited our friends after trying and waiting an hour. They are sad because on of the peoples sons died and he had a 20 day old baby and the son had an illness and then he had a stroke and died.
But the baby recovered.
My sister said it looked like my hair was caramelized!!!!!

There's the picture

but I combed the burnt hair out later


Also I lit part of my hair on fire i'm fine but know I smell like smoke and some hair next to my right ear is gone.I was trying to listen to gas come out of lighter but it actually lit and bunt part of my hair oops!!!!

today we went to the supermarket and got tons and tons of stuff. After that we found a field were there were goals and me and mina shot on each other
To be honest with you the first time my parents told me we were going to Mexico for a year I hated the idea. Later I'll probably read this and say 'wow, that was crazy.' We got to our house yesterday and loved it immediately. We also had to wait some time for the gas company to come because we couldn't heat up the water.

On the drive through Mexico the things we did the most was get entertained by the cats, sleep, and listen to music (mostly the Book of Mormon musical). After we unpacked we immediately started decorating our rooms, putting away our books and clothes, putting up posters, etc. We have some awesome fruit trees and vegetables in our yard and two balconies. We've been playing Settlers of Catan lately and going to the grocery store and visiting other places.

That's it for today.
