Wow, this week has been extremely fun and tiring and just full. It seems like so much is happened, so much, in fact, that I haven't had any time to write a blog. The first major "event" going on was my first real week back in gymnastics. On top of that, my cousin was coming with my aunt. I only get to see them one week, maybe two weeks if I'm lucky, every year. Since so much has happened, I probably won't get to very many details, but I'll just sum up the entire week.
My cousin got here on Sunday. She and her mom were staying at my grandparents house which is about a block from my house. We couldn't really figure out what to do, and I was really stressed about the next day. Not much happened Sunday except for the delicious dinner that my grandparents cooked up, not to mention the homemade ice cream cake.
Monday, I went to gym from 8:00 to 1:00 and then to a Despicable Me 2 with my gym friends. It was totally hilarious, but not quite as good as the first one was. Still, I recommend it for anyone ages 0-100 who have a childish sense of humor. :) Tuesday, I went to gym again and then went straight to my grandparents house. That's when my cousin and I got out the deck of cards. She taught me all these card games: Mau, Ghostcard, and a few others. We also played Wii Fit for about an hour. We had a sleepover because I wasn't going to gym Wednesday for various reasons.
Thurday was about the same as Tuesday, with another sleepover, and Friday was awesome. I went to gym from 9:00 to 1:00, an hour shorter than the rest of the days, and then went over to my cousin for only a few hours. We all went to dinner at Szechwan, my favorite chinese restaurant, and then I was dropped off at the gym for a gym sleepover.
A gym sleepover is exactly what it sounds like. We sleep at the gym. In case none of you have never been at a gymnastics gym thing, there are tons of mats, trampolines, bars, foam pits, and it is pretty much like a huge indoor playground, except better. Only optional gymnasts were allowed to come, which means that there were only about 15 people there. We jumped on tramp, played stick it on almost every event, then, when it got dark, we played night games. We played Sardines, Cops and Robbers, and Role Call. After we finally got tired, we played card games. Finally, at around 2:00 Am - ish, we made a huge fort that we all slept in. It was pretty cool. (The only really bad part was having to wake up at 6:30, but don't worry, I took a nap after.)
Saturday was the last full day that my cousin was here, and we went to go watch my sister skate at a competition. She did great, and we all went to my house, incuding my grandparents to have ribs and homemade blueberry pie. After, we went back to my grandparents to have a sleepover.
My cousin is probably already back home now, and I have gym again tomorrow. Last week was very demanding and tiring, but with that aside it was totally awesome.
