La Vacacion

July 30, 2006

Sorry for the lack of bloggage. But I’ve been on vacation for the last three weeks and it was incredible. It was great getting to spend time with my extended family and get out of the rythmn of normal life for a while.





Yum, Live Crabs

Ryan the Banjo Man

July 7, 2006

On Wednessday, I returned from an amazing trip to the North Georgia Mountains. It was, as always, a blast. We played hours of volleyball, basketball, football, and frisbee. We went hiking and slid down giant slippery rocks. Oh, and I learned how to play the Banjo, which was totally awesome.

My parents sold one of their mountain houses, so my father and I drove back the moving van to Orlando. It was a ton of fun getting to hang out with him, even if my butt was totally sore from the extremely uncomfortable and un-shock-absorbant seats. We played this awesome game that we play every road trip. Each one of us picks 3 songs, and then we scroll through the radio channels of whatever hillbilly town we’re in until we hear one of them, and this whoever chose the song wins. And I won with Move Along by the All American Rejects…

Everytime I make the 10 hour drive to North Georgia I am reminded of how much God totally rocks. I mean, it is so much fun just being in God’s creation, 3,000 feet above sea level, in the middle of no where, with bears and tons of other wildlife.

Not to mention an awesome family
