casssidyyyy!!! all i gots to sayy is -

Me gusta mucho las activadades. Me gusta dar unas paseos largos y hacer ejercicio. Yo miro televisión los jueves en la noche. Me gusta mirar fútbol americano los domingos y los lunes en el otoño. No me gusta tocar la musica pero me gusta mucho escuchar la musica. Yo deseo viajar en la primavera pero yo necesito mucho dinero. Me gusta también bailar con amigas para me gusta mucho acabar tarea.

Mom is typing - Bob is dictating...

Recibimos tu carta correos hoy, September 29. Busque en mi dicionario para "pizote" y no lo encontro. Que es???? Estamos feliz que te diviertes! No esperamos oir sobre tu vida y tu familia y tambien tu experiencia ensanado en la escuela. Que es el nombre de la pueblo que vives? Cuanto distancia estas de San Isadro? Buena Suerte! Pura Vida! Te extranamos! Te Queremos!

(so - how'd he do? - I think I corrected half his mispronunciations with my awesome spelling! - Haha) - We love you!

Hey Honey, We're thinking about you constantly!! Hope you got off to a goood start with y our first week. We're working a lot more on homework this year for Matt, snd John's work is pretty easy. They both think they're football studs and having fun in flag. All else is well. Love you lots!!! Dad

Oops! Messed up on the earlier message! I can't believe you ended up with TWO MORE BROTHERS!! How cool! Global Routes must know you! Can't wait to hear about the family. Awesome with the hot water! Expect a very small package in the mail (no surcharges I think) so you can send up the photos to the states and I'll upload them for you. We all miss you! Eagles Rock! (Jets don't stink either!). We miss you!

Hey Cass,

Sounds great that you got to have running water AND Lissie at your location. Sounds like you lucked out. So congrats on that. Good to hear that the family seems nice. MORE BROTHERS! HA.

Furthermore: Congrats on the health food store. I was wondering how long you could survive without splenda. Actually I rationalized it with "She must have filled that whole bag of hers with it."

Football update: Eagles play the 49ers. So we'll have to make sure to console Sean later. Also, we lost in fanatsy to Dad (his team looks pretty unbeatable by anybody in the league), and this week we face off against Mike Cirino.

Well have fun, good luck with the kids at school, you'll have to tell us how that goes. Miss you a bunch.

Great Blog! I can't believe you done so much already! It sounds like you are having a blast. Can't wait to hear about the family. When you figure out how to upload the photos make sure you show us your bulging muscles from moving rocks and stuff. We miss you too!

Cass!!! I miss you tonss! I can't believe your in Costa Rica, that's so amazing! I hope you're loving it! I wanna see some pics!

Hey Honey, I hope you're having fun and getting to know and like your teammates down there. We have your car inspected and garaged till you get back .Got one last beach day in last weekend and so it looks like Summer is gone up here... Love you, Dad

Hey Cass!

Glad to hear you are having a great time! I wish you all the luck in the world and I hope your journey is full of excitement! I'll keep checking for your posts. Keep me updated!

So you're in costa rica for about 10 seconds and you already get that close to the president. Totally not fair.

Heard you are out of the internet connected world for a while, can't wait for your next message. Missed you during the DEVASTATING eagles loss to the giants. OH! and I sent your "blog" to pat and katy, they check it as well. Glad you are having fun, say hola to el presidente for me.

You are so lucky you are in a jungle somewhere and you weren't subject to the agony, heartbreak, tragedy, etc. of the Eagles vs. Giants game. Really, really lucky!
