Back in the U.S for a visit, loving it!!! It has been 4 years since I have seen my family and it has been so fun and great just to see every one and catch up on everything that has been going on. The problem is that some of my family lives in Baton Rouge and the rest in Baltimore, and traveling everywhere in between! So driving back and forth hasn't been so fun but seeing family and just being with family has been awesome.
We got here on the 5th of December and boy let me tell you, it was a long trip. We missed a few flights here and there so it took much longer to get here, and then we had to drive 8 hours to get to the hotel we were going to stay at. When we finally got there I collapsed on the bed and was out until the next day, afternoon! Had a good week there and then headed to Baton Rouge to visit grandma, aunt, uncle and two cousins, along with the best family friends you could ever imagine. Had a good week there and then traveled to Baltimore. Having a good time, just relaxing most of the time.
So glad to be back, it is going great, and I will be sad when we have to leave but glad to have come!

This is truly, Swaziland
Swaziland is truly a beautiful country but some of the things that the people do in it, are just sad and wrong. I don't agree at all at how they treat people, what I saw with my own eyes last Friday was just wrong and so sad, what could I have done?
Last Friday I was walking in town with my sister, brother and mom, we were buying new clothes for my brother. My mom's close friend worked in one of the shops by the parking lot so we stopped by to say hello, my mom and her friend got to talking when one of the people in the room said, oh my gosh, isn't that your shoe guy Audry? Audry was the friend of my moms. So Audry looked out side and the parking guards, the PARKING guards were beating, very hardly, beating this man right in front of us. Audry looks at him and said no, that's not him but why are they beating him so bad? My mother's face was so sad that it made me sad, she wanted to go out there and tell them to wait for the police to come but we stopped her because we knew it would be no use and she could have gotten hurt.
We carried on shopping and on the way back, like two hours later we left, but before we left, my mom had to figure out what had happened to the man and why were the guards beating him.So she went back to Audry and she said that he had stolen something from Shop Right and that they kept beating him so he kept trying to run away and that he was bleeding everywhere and there was blood all over the parking lot so she called the police but by the time they got there the man had run to the bus rank, Audry said that he was so badly hurt that he couldn't run that fast so they caught him at the bus rank and probably beat him to death there.
