tell it like it is...

the sunburn is slowly disappearing and turning into a tan. except for my face! my face is still red and my forehead is peeling....blah! but, what can you do? look at the bright side...at least it doesn't hurt anymore! :)

so, yesterday i went to babysit for these people that my parents know. they live in naples, which equals no parking! i did, however find a nice spot over the bridge not too far away. they live right on the canal and for living there, their house is huge! their decor was distracting me a little. i have absolutely no clue what look they are going for. the outside looks like a cottage style and then you walk in the front door and there are stain-glass windows and crosses everywhere. i felt like i was in a catholic church. i walked into the next room and it was like hawaiian themed. the dining room was something along the lines of centeral asian and then the kitchen is like spanish style with bright vibrant colors. their upstairs office is nautical themed with porthole windows and anchors. i was so confused.

any way after getting over the shock of the may different 'looks' of their house we had a fun time. there is a girl named antonia and boy named giovanni (not a clue how to spell that). yeah, not italian at all. they were pretty cute kids though and good for the most part. we went to the park and "played" baseball. you can't really play a full out game with me, who doesn't even know how to play baseball, and a 7 and 4 year old. still fun though. :) they enjoyed having me spin them around in circles. yeah, talk about dizzy after! and also taking pictures with my phone. fun stuff! :) one funny slightly sad thing: when we were at the park, their neighbor, who is also 4, and his mom came over. that kid was one hyper child! he was crazy! so we were standing there and then giovanni goes, to the kid's mom, "when is luke going home?"
luke's mom: "are you ready for him to go home"
"yes!"
ouch! he told it like it was. i was kinda just shocked at how forcefully and boldly he said it...no shame at all. this is the same kid who i mentioned a while back who asked me who the mother of katie was...funny kid.

hope all is well with everyone! :)
