Puke, Puke, and More Puke

Here is the funniest thing that has happened in China...

We went to Forest Park today with Carrasco's and Hindman's. It was HOT! The kids played, ate watermelon, and played some more. It started to cool off a little bit because it looked like a storm was coming again. We left there about 3:45.

Alejandro and Cameron on the trampolines.

Hard to get all the kids to sit still and look.

The kids had the park to themselves.

They were sweating from all the running and climbing.

The ladies...Me, Ileana, Carrie, and Becky.

I thought for sure someone was going to get sick on this.

Two cute kids.  Look how sweaty Cameron's shirt is.

Here comes the funny part...we get in the parking lot of our apartment and are waiting for cars to get out of the way to get up to get out. We are in my van. All of a sudden we hear a noise. Ileana turns her head and looks in the back. Alejandro is behind my seat and he started puking. Cameron and Alfredo were trapped. Ale stood up and is major barfing. All red puke from watermelon.  I can't get the door open because Mr. Xue doesn't have it in park. I'm yelling at him to put it in park which he finally does. It seemed like it took forever to get the door open. Ileana is standing between the seats catching puke. She yelled "HELP" so I reached in and grabbed Ale and yanked him out of the car. Ileana is standing there with watermelon puke in her hands, puke in Todd's work boots, puke in his hard hat (only a little), puke all over the van. I was helping Ale and I could not stop laughing. Mr. Xue finally realized what was going on. Ileana was cleaning up the best she could, Mr. Xue is laughing thank goodness and said "No problem"...though I'm sure he didn't mean it, and I grabbed my video camera and regular camera and started taking pictures. Of course this was blog worthy material. So we ended up walking up the driveway...Ileana with one shoe because the other was covered in puke, me carrying Todd's work boots with puke, and poor Alejandro with a puke face and puke shirt. I'm sure it was a funny site to all. Hindman's just happened to be getting out of their van and they couldn't help but laugh. Alejandro wasn't sick, he just gets car sick.

Little Puker Boy.  Check out all the watermelon on the ground.

Mental note--Alejandro is never sitting in the back seat again. Poor Ileana just kept apologizing but it really wasn't a problem. Mainly because I have people to clean it up. She felt terrible though.  I continue to laugh every time I think about it or get a visual.

After everyone showered the Carrasco's came up to watch a short movie with Cameron.  Carrasco's went home and Cameron and I had dinner, relaxed, and went to bed.

Just chillin'.
