It was cold this week. We all walked around in the sun in jeans and sweaters trying to stay warm. Then after a while you would get too hot and take your sweater off then you would just freeze again. It's back to being hot and sunny now.
At family scripture study we went over to our neighbors palapa that the boys are staying at while construction is going on to read. That's also where Mom's couch is so it works out good. I went to sit down in my usual spot and when I started sitting and reached behind me to move the pillow I touched something warm! It turns out that I sat on a possum! It just sat there staring at us with it's mouth wide open until Dad poked it with a stick and it ran away. It's in the pictures I'm putting up.
Lugar (the guard dog) is gone! :( He started barking at all the mexicans that ride here on their bikes to work and freaking them out. He hadn't actually bitten anyone but Sixto (chief of security) had to take him away to his house in Cancun. It's really strange not to be able to just go over there and take him on a walk or play with him. It's sad.
I'm sore all over my body. I've been getting Dad to teach me Hap-Ki-Do and it really stretches your leg muscules doing the kicks and stuff. Not only that, but me and Keltie were playing tag/hide-and-seek on our bikes and I totally wiped out. ( I'm blaming Keltie-she cheated) I skinned the top of my feet, got bruises up my leg and cut my knees, grazed my palms on the gravel as well as the top of my hand, and I cut my elbow. Not to mention I got all dirty. So inbetween Hap-Ki-Do and my bike crash I'm feeling it.
Locklin made a solar oven. He was so excited for friday when we could go get pizza so he could save the box to make it with. In the pictures he's cooking cookies. It didn't really work so we just ate the dough. Mmmm, cookie dough.

I don't know if I've mentioned that my Mom has a blog. It's http://www.crzy2go.blogspot.com/. That's also the licence plate that we wanted for the motorhome. We like the customized plates. My Mom's van is PRTYVAN. It can be either PARTYVAN or PRETTYVAN depending on if your a cop or not, LOL.
Keltie's is http://www.keltieczy2go.blogspot.com/.
I spend a lot of time with my sister so whenever I say WE that's who I mean unless I say otherwise and it makes sense.
WE have been spending a lot if time at the guard shack. On Saturday we spent 3 straight hours there talking to 2 security guards who don't speak English. We think that we've been kicked out of the restaurant. That's what Rodolfo (one of the waiters) was trying to say in his bad English. We're not exactly sure why or if we just have to limit our time there or what. We think that it's just Christina (Kalu's wife, Kalu owns the restaurant) not liking us. While I was in Canada Keltie asked her if it was okay for us to be there and she said it was fine. I think we need to talk to Kalu and get the real story in English because not being able to hang out with our friends sucks.
I did my hair straight yesterday. It took me a long time. It didn't even stay straight for very long because of the humidity. That it started raining didn't help. I redid it today and it's staying put way better. I like it when it's straight in a messy ponytail. I was getting a little bored with my all the time crazy curls.
Last Monday we went to Cancun on a whim and had lunch. It was really good. After that we went to see a movie, 10,000 B.C. at the theatre and man are their theatres nice! They had huge leather reclining chairs and it's still half the price of Canada! Me and Locklin shared a seat for the whole movie. His excuse was that he thought it was going to be scary. He is such a leech. But it's okay because he's an extremely cute one.
Our construction is going good. The boys had to be moved across the street to our neighbors palapa because the workers were getting cement on the tent that they were sleeping in outside. We moved the harp over there too. When we were in Cancun Mom found THE PERFECT couches so the next day they went back in a truck to get it. It's over there and I've got to say that they are pretty cool. They're in sections so you can rearrange them any way you want.
I AM GOING TO LEARN SPANISH!!!! I am seriously getting tired of not being able to understand and talk to people. I think that I'm going to sync my Dad's Spanish C.D'S to my MP3 player and listen to it before bed. I can add it to my bedtime routine!

Not too much has happened since I wrote last. Keltie was on springbreak and us 2 went to Yan Ten on our bikes everyday. I´m feeling extremely tan where I´m not burnt. One day we took Lugar (the guard dog) with us and we had a lot of fun. He was really good running next to us on our bikes and we brought his ball so we could chuck it into the ocean and play fetch. He started this game where he would get the ball then lay inbetween me and Keltie then dig this huge crater to bury his ball in. Keltie gave up trying to suntan when he tried to bury her.
We started construction! It feels like the workers are getting stuff done, they´re going to put the cement down on the ground tomorrow. Me and Keltie like to drive to the cornerstore and get them pop.
It was General Conference today. It´s the first one that I´ve ever seen without President Hinckley. We were able to attend the last General Conference in Utah. It´s nice that we got to see him at his last Conference betore he died, I´m really going to miss him. He´s the only prophet i´ve known although I like President Monson. He came to the Stake Centre in Calgary and I got to see him in person.
Me, Keltie, Mom, and Dad have a Smallville obsession. Mom got the first season for her birthday and now we´re on the fifth. I guess that there´s 6 seasons out and still going. It´s really sad when all you can talk about is Superman.
I cut my own hair. I´ve been wanting to all week but I´ve only been able to get Mom to let me yesterday. All I did was trim my layers and it wasn´t such a big deal.
That´s about it.

With all the fun we´ve been having I totally forgot I even had a blog! Too much has happened since I last wrote so I´ll just do a basic recap up until last week.
Our cousins came for Christmas and we had tons of fun! (as always) We went to Tulum and me, Keltie, Dad, and Uncle Jamie took a kitesurfing lesson. We didnt get to go on a board or in the water or even use a real kite but trying to control the training kite was hard enough.
Opening my Christmas present from my brothers, 2 real live cockroaches fell on me! I was ready to kill them but they didn´t even wrap my present, Mom did! They gave me books so we have no clue why cockroaches would be in there.
The Creasons left before New Years. We had a chocolate fondue and invited the Hopsias over ( the family with 4 ´unschooled´kids that the boys are best friends with. They´re our favourite neighbors we´ve ever had.)After that we went to the Kareoke/Dance at the restaraunt.
In February me and Dad drove up to Canada to sell the Motorhome and for me to get some harp lessons and participate in the Kiwanis Music Festival. I really liked staying staying at Grandma and Grandpa´s house. We had a lot of evil marble games.
Mom had a few people come see them while we were gone. When we got back I got to see my best friends parents on their last day. We went to the Tulum ruins and had a Book of Mormon tour from our friend Alma. Then we went to the beach!
We had Mom´s birthday( I won´t tell you how old) and it was their Anniversary on Easter Sunday. On Good Friday we had a fire! I woke up because I heard the power go out. Then I heard people start yelling that there was a fire! Fire in PaaMul is insanely scary because everything is made out of guano ( grass or palm fronds) the last 2 fires took out 8 palapas in one and 12 and the restaruant and dive shop in another. I was instantly out of bed and waking up Dad. He went over there ( across the street and 6 palapas down) with our extinguisher and later we found out that he had been up on the roof where the fire was and got electricuted by the power line that started the fire and was still on. He didn´t get hurt and neither did anyone else. After we got the power cut ( a half hour later) and the Bomberos/firefighters got there it was fine. Only 1 roof was gone and the one next to it was barely singed. We were so lucky this time because there was no wind, we cauyght the fire early on, the Bomberos got there quickly, and everyone in PaaMul was prepared and had fire extinguishers.
We made Easter eggs with the Hopsias. They´ve never really celebrated holidays like we do so they think that we´re a little overboard but we just drag them along with us. Why not have as much fun as possible? Mom bought 90 eggs and in the morning they came over and hunted the eggs with us. Dad, who is phycically linked to the easter bunny, helped the little girls out. I found an egg in the gas thing for the van.
Me and Keltie got matching really cute Easter dresses and the boys got insanely large water guns. We all got the traditional Kinder Suprises ( the directions to build the stuff was in spanish) and Jelly Belly´s. Thank you Grandma for the Eggies!
We´re having a bot of a cold snap so we´re all just hanging out. Pepe approved our construction plan so hopefully we can start building on Monday.
Now we´re up to date and I´ll try to keep it that way.

Our cousins are coming!! Jessica, Daylon, Aunty Ashlee and even Uncle Jamie are coming down on December 15. They're staying 2 weeks and for Christmas! They get here in 6 days. We're going to have so much fun. Last time we did nothing but sit on the beach but this time we're going to go see ruins and go to Tulum and stuff.
We were trying to convince Jessica not to cut and dye her hair. It was long and blonde but she said she was bored with it and she didn't listen to us. She cut it short and got brown highlights. She also got her ears pierced finally. We've been bugging her forever to get them done and she said when she was 12 she would do it. Her birthday was on Monday and now she's 12 and still taller than Jamin!
Our friends Toni and Dani got home from Canada last week. We've been hanging out at the restaurant talking to the waiters and making cake. Dani taught me how to do a cartwheel. I've never been able to do one and now I can almost do 2 in a row. She can do 15.
I'm going to go to Kiwanis! It's a music festival and I'm going to be playing 'Esquisse' for one of my solos and 'Tango' and 'Evening Prayer' for my duets with Rebecca. I've already been playing 'Tango' but I'm going to be Harp 2 not Harp 1. 'Evening Prayer' is from Hansel and Gretel. Ashlee is bringing down the music for it when she comes.
We're going to have our family meeting and switch jobs. I'm going to be on dishes this week. Eegh.

I haven't written forever! We've been having so much fun I haven't been on the computer at all. Last monday we set up our christmas tree. It is the most sparkly thing ever. It's blue with diamonds, fake snow, sparkly snowflakes, sparkly blue pionsettas, sparkly stick things and a big blue sparkly star. It looks really cool when it's lit up.
Our grandparents (abuelos) were here this week. We had so much fun. Locklin took grandpa everywhere in Paamul, lizard hunting, coconut hunting and whatever else he could think of. Grandma taught us a new card game. It's called 65. It's kind of like phase 10 which is my favourite game.
We went to Yan Ten one day. I've been there before but never went in the water. The sand feels like wet flour like that beach in Cancun. We found so many conch shells. I want to find out how they make them shine pink. Right now they're bleached white. Me and Keltie went snorkling and found some at the reef but they've got green fuzzies on them.
The last day they were here we went to the mall and Walmart and got Locklins hair cut. He had a huge freak that the lady was cutting it shorter than he wanted and wouldn't let her finish. He wore a hoodie for the rest of the day.
They left yesterday :( I wish they could've stayed longer. They can't come back until after grandpa retires at the end of febuary and not even then. I really liked having them here.
I'm going to post some pics.

hey,

Last night we got turtles! They are so cool. They're just little now but in a year they'll be 10 centimeters around and in three they'll be big. One of them has little dots all over and her name (were pretty sure they're both girls) is Peca. It means freckles in spanish and the other one is Tuga, like in tortuga which means turtle. It's also off Pirates of the Caribbean.
It is so cold. I sleep outside in the loft of our palapa and I freeze at night. Today I wore long jeans. If you look on the weather website it says that it only gets to 31 celsius in the day. I think that's 80 something in farenhiet.
Keltie (my sister) took her math midterm and got 91% on it! YAY!
My grandpa and Grandma are coming down in 8 days! W e are going to have so much fun. I hope the weather is nice and not cloudy like it is now. My cousins are coming down sometime after christmas too.
