Where In The World Is SuperAngel??

This Article was published in HSB Friends, News and FUN Stuff

    So can you guess where I went?? Take a wild guess.
I got to go visit Uncle Paul, Auntie, Paulie, Lukey, Beav, Jules, and Sus. Can you believe that?? I can't!! I am so excited still.
    Ok want the story?? Of course you do. It's pretty detailed, 'cause I am pretty detailed. Sorry if this is long.
    On Wednesday, my Mom had called my Great Grandparents to see how they were doing, and my Grandpa was there. He wanted to talk to Mom. Mom gets off the phone and goes, "Guess where your Grandpa's next trip is to??"
Me- "Tennessee."
Mom- "Yes, Knoxville."
Everyone- *EXCITED* Shouting, freaking out.
Mom- "So who wants to call him and ask him if they can go and see the Suarez's"
Me (first, of course)- " I DO!!"
(A little info: My Grandpa delivers motor homes across the country to RV places. So that is why he was going to TN)
    We spent the next 20min talking about it and then we just went on doing what we were doing because we didn't know when he was going. We figured the next day or two. Well I get on the pc to blog, it being Wednesday, and leave about 3 comments when Mom comes in and says, "Ok, so who really wants to go to TN. Your grandpa is on his way there now." Immediately I said I wanted to go. So we emailed Auntie to see if we could stop in and then I called Grandpa to see if we could go with him. Well of course we could. Jocelyn and I spent the next hour getting stuff ready to go. I think that was the shortest time it has ever taken me to get ready to go on a 2 day trip. lol.
    We get everything loaded in the van and headed to wal-mart to meet Grandpa. We picked up a few snacks. I got Auntie some protein bars and made sure I got some oreos too. Then we set out on our way, it was about 6pm. And freezing too.
    Jocelyn fell asleep within 10min of driving and slept the whole rest of the way til we stopped. While I kept Grandpa company and helped navigate.
    We hit Richmond, IN, and got some Taco Bell and gas. We then got stuck in traffic because there was an accident. A really bad one. We were waiting for an hour. When they finally got everything cleaned up, we saw the cars that had been in the accident and the fronts were completely off. I wonder if anyone survived.
    We were on our way again, and made up some ground. By 2am we were in Kentucky. We stopped at a gas station and stayed the rest of the nite. We slept in the motor home and I was freezing still.
    We got up around 7:30am and set out. We were only about 1 1/2 from Knoxville. Jocelyn fell back asleep on the way there, and I dozed off and on.
    We got to Knoxville around 9am, and stopped in a parking lot to get everything out of the unit and into Grandpa's suv. Then we went to the rv place and took care of dropping off the unit for about an hour.
    We got a bite to eat at Shoney's and I called Uncle Paul to get directions to their house. We left the restaurant around 11am, and started toward Johnson City.
    We made it there within 1 1/2. Auntie wasn't home yet from her Dr's. appointment, so we went to CVS to get some things.
    We then went to the Suarez's house around 1pm. Julia was first to greet us as she was sitting on the mailbox. Then Levi came out and Paulie and Lukey.
    We went in and got acquainted, not that we needed to or anything and talked for a little bit. Well actually we had to get acquainted with Scooter. He was barking at us at first, but then was fine when we petted him and played with him.

He was so funny. His little paws look like muscle paws. It was so funny.

We waited for Auntie and Uncle Paul for an hour or so, then we decided to go watch these really neat videos Paulie had found. Then Paulie decided we needed to go out and try some of the moves we had seen. ok...
    They showed us their moves, and then thought Jocelyn and I should jump up the wall. Uh... no thank you. You can do alot in a skirt, but that was not something I was going to attempt to do in one. But Jocelyn, being the competitive, athletic girl that she is, decided she was going to jump the wall skirt or not. She did a pretty good job of it too. After doing that for about an hour, we came in cause the boys were starving. But we were waiting til Auntie and Uncle Paul got back to eat. They called and told us they were almost home and to get some onions cut. Well those boys CANNOT cut onions. Levi went to go get a pair of swimming goggles, so he could cut them. Jocelyn and I made them let us cut them. Paulie, Lukey, and Beav were all tearing up as I was cutting the onions. lo. It was pretty funny.
    Auntie and Uncle Paul got there around 4pm and we were SO excited to see them. Ran up and gave them both big hugs and was just so happy to see them. Auntie told us great news about little Sus and she looked great too. It was so relieving to hear everything was great and normal.
    Then it was time to get the cooking going. We helped put some groceries away, then Auntie booted us out of the kitchen. We went upstairs and had to be tortured through “King of the Bongo” and “Where is the Balogna/Baloney“. Let me tell you: IT WAS TORTURE!! Those are THE dumbest videos I have ever seen. Especially the baloney one. That one is freaky. I guess if I had to choose which one I liked more it would have to be King of the Bongo, cause I hate the baloney song. That is just plain scary. Sorry Eric, you are weirdy.

EDIT:
Ok, so instead of going to those dumb videos, check out these really cool ones.

And also head over to Paulie's blog and see how a geek can get hacked!! LOL!!

    Go watch them both and tell me which one is better.
    So after watching those and debating with Eric which one was best we were called down for dinner.
    We had a glorious meal of spaghetti with garlic bread, Auntie's awesome corn dish, fried cabbage, and carmelized (burnt) carrots. It was so good. Mr. Marcum joined us too.
    After dinner, we went back upstairs til desert was ready. We just hung out for awhile. Paulie showed us how well he could play the guitar. Impressive actually. He even made up his own song. Actually Levi and Lukey played for us too. Julia played the piano too. We checked blogs, email, they watched those videos again. I was seriously getting a headache from them. ahh...

Paulie was going to make me delete it, but it is so funny.
"What are you thinking about, Paulie??" LOL!!

Jocelyn the beauty!!

Where you most always find Paulie, at his computer. Actually he was explaining to me how to set a website up.

Julia was showing us her very impressive piano skills.

Joc is showing Levi her gazillion comments she gets when she posts.

Lukey playing chess.

Then desert was finally done. It was coconut cream pie. It was really good, especially with coffee.
We went back upstairs again while Uncle Paul, Grandpa and Auntie all sat downstairs and talked.

Jocelyn blogged, and Paulie was on the phone with Eric. I was trying to get some pictures, but no one wanted me to take some, so I had to sneakily get some. It was about 10pm by now, and Grandpa wanted to go to bed, so we all piled downstairs, while Auntie and Uncle Paul and Lukey went to get some things for breakfast.

Jocelyn and I were going to do the dishes, but Beav wouldn't let us and neither would Paulie. So we gave up on that and went to the dining room while Paulie and Joc ate some more pie. Julia wanted to take some pictures. Most of the pictures were taken by her.

Is that pie good??

What's you laughing at, Paulie??

Ok, btw... I did not take all these pictures of Paulie. Julia really loves her big brother and she took a gazillion pictures of him.

What to do what to do?? That is the question. I was just skimming this really neat book Auntie gave us, Boys of Grit

I was looking at Boys of Grit. Waiting to figure out what we were doing.

Julia, our photographer

We were deciding what to do STILL, I think.

I have no idea what we are laughing at. But we did a lot of that.

Auntie, Uncle Paul and Lukey got back and we decided to play cards. Joc and I taught them how to play rummy. It was going great til Paulie dealt and I lost all my points and he gained the lead. Everyone else was in the negative.

This was before Paulie and Joc started cheating. I think Paulie won this hand. Guess concentration is the key??

Julia's hand of rummy

We were almost done and then Joc and Paulie were looking at each other's cards and giving each other what they needed. They were cheating. Who would have thought that Miss Jocelyn and Paulie the Awesome would cheat at cards?? I was so disappointed, ok not really. But we quit the game due to their cheating ways. I will not ever play with them again. Ha.
    After that we decided to go to bed. It was about 12:30am anyway and we were leaving at 5:30am, so we all went to bed. Julia was sweet enough to let Joc and I share her bed while she made a little tent in the closet.
    Julia, your bed was so comfortable. Thank you for letting me sleep in it.
    Got up to Uncle Paul cutting up peppers and tomatoes. But when I looked at their clocks it said 2:45am, so I was thinking he is up way too early, and I went back to bed. Well about 5min later I hear Grandpa is up and I remembered their clock was wrong. So I hop out of bed and get ready to leave. Then I went out to help Uncle Paul. Paulie, Beav, and Julia all woke up to see us off. We ate a delicious breakfast called tortilla omelet. I am not an egg person, but will eat them if they don't taste like eggs. Then we cleaned the table off and got everything loaded. Gave Uncle Paul a hug and told everyone else good bye. Then we went outside and had a nice discussion about the stars. It was really clear out.

Finally, it was time we left. So Uncle Paul led us out to the highway and we started home. Guess what happened when we left and got on the highway?? The King of the Bongo filled my head and stayed there all day. It was so annoying. As a matter of fact I was still singing it as I was typing this up last nite. Thanks Paulie. NOT!! At least its not that baloney song, ‘cause I probably would have gone crazy if it had been.

But I finally fell asleep and slept til about 9am. Then I sat up and kept Grandpa company and watched the scenery. Jocelyn slept til about 1:30pm. We were making really good time. Then we got on 75 and there was a really bad accident. Traffic was backed up a good mile or so. So we took a detour. Stopped a couple of times for gas and snacks and made it home by 3pm.

We had to go work at Mr. Schenck's and then came home and rested. I got this cute picture of Lucy.

Look how big she is getting. And more beautiful each day.

    I feel so blessed that God allowed us that opportunity to go and see them. It was a special and wonderful time that we spent with them.
    Thank you Uncle Paul, Auntie, Paulie, Lukey, Beav, Julia and Sus for letting us come and spent time with you.
    God is so awesome!!

P.S. Be looking for a special announcement coming about my Superbash.

As Always,

Thanks for stopping by "Daily" at the "Planet"!!
