Summer Fun with Fam 2010

Me with the kids. Don't be deceived, I was actually pretty thrilled to be there. :)

First visit of West Coast relatives here in our little East Coast house. It's been a few fun-filled days, two weeks to be exact, with two batch of families, both on my mom's side. It would have been more exciting if they came at the same time. The bigger, the better; the more, the merrier!
First week, the Oclarinos. Fun, yet tiring. There were two adorable kids namely Jessa May and Jeremiah. Both very interesting, and well-behaved at most. They're great kids. I was the designated babysitter at the time, which I didn't mind. Even my lack of love of kids did not hinder my hidden talent in babysitting. LOL. I had fun, really!
We went to several places: French Creek, the Pagoda, Chocolate World, Bistro, Franklin (Virginia), Virginia Beach, and that's basically it. It's a lot for me already, though.
Second week, the Bernads.

Chocolate Factory with the Bernads spell F-U-N. :)

Well, we also went to the same places almost: Pagoda, Choc World, Amish, and then NY and NJ places. The last day was not a good one for me. I had such a fit. I just hate being in a place full of drunk, partying people with no escape (no car, no public transpo, in the middle of nowhere). It freaks me out big time--regardless whether they're family or not. I'm really not a fan of people hurling and falling everywhere. There's a reason why I don't drink--aside from the fact that I'm allergic to Vodka. LOL.
Overall, I really, really had so much fun, I almost did not do my homework for my online classes. It was tiring, yet fulfilling. I love being with family once in a while. I'm not very outgoing, so 'once in a while' is good enough for me.
That's it for now, my hands have cramps from all the typing.
