It hasn't been six months, I win! Anyways, this time it really wasn't my fault I didn't write; I forgot you, and it's not as if I would have had a free moment to write anyways. Okay, so here's what happened: I found out what all the whispering and stuff was about. Grandma Angelina planned a vacation, for EVERYONE. Her and Grandpa, mum and dad, auntie Silvia and uncle Leo, ALL the grandchildren and great grandchildren, AND the Chosen family, Rocco and his little sis Leah, the Lawley's and O'Callaghan. Basically anyone and everyone Grandma Angelina considers part of the family, that she could get her hands on.
Super SUPER fun. And even more chaotic.
We went to Forks, washington. Dusty's mum's side of the family live there, believe it or not it's where Kaitlynnh and Julian were born, nine years ago on valentines day. We've gone there since as far as I can remember. Mum's known Catalina (Dusty's mum) and family for ages, I guess. I never really asked, it was just sort of obvious.
It was awesome to get to see everyone ago, though I don't really care for people telling me 'My how you've grown up, your such a pretty young lady now!'. Kato, a cousin of Dusty's I've known for forever it feels like, kinda gave me a small scare. I had no idea he's an animagus, a wolf at that. So naturally when a wolf walked up and nuzzled me, I didn't think it was a human I decided to pet. He got a real laugh out of it, and mum scolded me for petting him because I thought he was a real wolf. 'Wild animals do not make friends, nor pets Savina! What are you thinking?' urgh.
Forks was just as beautiful as I remember it. Everythings green and healthy looking wherever you turn. They get so much rain, it should look that way. It rained a couple of times while we were there. Luckily it was nice, warm and sunny the day Grandma Angelina insisted we go to an amusement/water park. I didn't think with how many people we had, that we could do that. For one, how much it would cost, not to count anything else but she had planned this all ahead of time.
That was probably the most insane part of the trip yet. The only thing stopping mum from grounding everyone (not just her kids, but all of us) was Grandma Angelina. I am SURE of that. Grandpa told us older kids to go get cotton candy, and popcorn, and whatever, and the younger kids asked to come so we let them. Well, that was a big mistake. Legend and Katie started yelling at eachother, Gabriel BIT Legend (I was SO not expecting that one, I think Katie put him up to that), Legend chased him around while Danny tried telling him not to hurt Gab, Julian was shouting for everyone to stay with the group and Katie was chasing Legend. Kind of a dog, chasing cat, chasing mouse kind of thing you could say.
Anyways, Dusty, Samuel and Joey went after them and we kept the others, still trying to our treats we had the popcorn guy yelling at us because of all the commotion and then Jae topped everything off by coming out of nowhere with a soccor ball, accidentally kicking it at the popcorn guys head.
Yup. Mum's head looked like it was going to explode. It was scary.
Grandma and Grandpa told the parents to go relax, and they would take over and take us on a bunch more rides. Emmy went with them, she didn't ride on anything.. though we did have Ember and Colton along, but there was plenty enough people to watch them. Odd.. anyways. That wraps up that, except Miguel pushed me and Lexi off our double inner tube in the konga river. It's like a huge three feet deep pool, and the water pushes you forward (really strong mind you, it took forever to get everyone out sucessfully.) around and around. We got our revenge later that week, when we took a walk to the beach. Shoved him right into the water.
So, on one of our last days in Forks, the teenagers decided all of the of age people needed to get out and do whatever they want, without any kids to worry about. Not even the babies. So, that's exactily what we made happen. They didn't have an excuse not to, we had Rocco, Dusty, Joey, Samuel, Sammy, Vee, Kato, Me, Lexi, Miguel (if you could count him), and several others! I think we could handle a bunch of kids under the age of ten.
We did, too. It was another crazy day, but that's not new. We made them leave at eleven in the morning, and they weren't allowed to come back till ten at night. By that point, the kids would be sleeping. Grandma Angelina thought the idea was incredibly sweet. We thought it was necessary, after all this whole vacation was to celebrate life, rather than mourn death.
And guess what? getting the kids to bed wasn't that hard, we only had one problem and that was Miguel causing Katie to start yelling after I got Kristopher, Colton and Ember to sleep. Thank merlin himself, none of the three woke up. Unfortunately I had to finish my letter to Curt real fast, to go find out what was going on, but it was no biggy.
Over all, it was a blast. Best summer ever. I wish Curt could have been with us, but we wrote back and forth a few times. He was in Godric's Hollow, at his brother's house with his family. I know he doesn't get to see all of his siblings in one place alot, so I was glad to hear that.
Anyways, I better go. I just spent the last twenty-seven minutes laying across my bed, Madi and Joey are probably waiting on me; we're going to take the younger lot to the park.
