We thought we were going to die!

but before i get to the main story, i will drag you by a thread like a newscast and keep the main story till last. so you might jsut scroll down now.
well, the day started like most days. there was rain last night which made me feel all cozy and warm inside.
santi and i were up early and i put him in his bouncy chair which makes him go poo. mom says it should be easy to potty train him.
we took a great nap from about 9-11:30!~
then it was time to go to the "cousin's lunch" in los al...10 total, mostly my mom's and aunt's cousins. it was a lot of fun.
then we went to visit beto at my uncle's apt. but they weren't finished working yet so we went home and played, did chores, and i wrapped a birthday present for my sister mary that my mom bought. Seth and mom are going to Africa tomorrow. Well, they leave tomorrow but won't arrive for two days. Yesterday I wrapped about 12 gifts for my two nephews and one neice who live there. their christmas presents my mom's taking this week so they'll have them in Dec. It really got me into the Christmas spirit already!

Then Glenda, Marcus and Shelby came over. Mary had ordered a whole bunch of washable diapers, but not old fashioned cloth (they are expensive and like disposable style) to take to africa for the baby house. so glenda picked them up because they were closer to her house and came over to bring them and we had KFC for dinner. yum. Santi is starting to eat more foods now and loved the mashed potatoes and gravey!

anywho, Glenda, Beto and I are in the garage doing laundry and looking at Beto's paintings when all of a sudden we hear a extremely loud jet sound. we live near an airport so we're used to the jets but this jet seriously sounded like it was going to crash into our house, which has happened before. well, not to ours but to others around the corner.
we just stopped and looked at each other and grabbed each others hands. and ducked. like that would keep us from getting killed if it did crash into the house! we were afraid to look outside. finally i did and the huge fedex jet was soooo low! i've never seen one so low. and they usually don't go directly over our house. i apologize to glenda for probably bruising her wrist. then it didn't land! it went towards the airport but went back up and circled around. Beto and Marcus got up on the garage roof and noticed it went to the landing path and landed finally at the airport.
we were glad my mom was out getting dinner at the time. she said they can be fined for that!
