Going to Guatemala

Me and my family getting ready to go
Hey

"Oh come on mom do I really have to get up just get ready to school when were only there for a half day?" I asked my mom tiredly "of course you do" my mom answered with a hint of stressfulness in her voice. The only reason why I was going to school for a half day was because my family and many other families are going to Guatemala. I got up from my bed and walked as slow as possible to the bathroom. I brushed my teeth so slow that I thought I was going to fall asleep. I started down the stairs when I remembered that my backpack was still upstairs in my bedroom, "awwwww" I complained not wanting to go all the way back upstairs to get my backpack. Finally huffing and puffing I made it up the stairs, I went into my room looked around for about three minutes when I heard my mom call from downstairs" honey your backpacks right here on your seat" "mom why didn't you tell me that before" I screamed at her "just go to school" she screamed back. I grabbed my backpack and headed out the door slamming it behind me.
Finally lunch was over and I go to leave school and drive for 3 hours on a plane, I wasn't to thrilled about the 3 hour part but I think the rest was fine. I searched the parking lot for my mothers vehicle for 3 minutes when I finally spotted it I ran over to the vehicle got in and slammed the door behind me. We met all our friends at the church, packed everything and left the church behind us. When we got past the border I couldn't stand being in the same vehicle as my parents anymore so I went with our friends the Berthodins.
We reached our first destination around 4:00 p.m. finally I thought just a few more hours to go. Our first destination was Seattle Airport because that was our first flight. When we were on the plane all of us kids tried to sit by each other but some of the younger kids just wanted to stay with the parents. We reached Guatemala at 1:00a.m. in the morning our time and had to drive for a hour unpack our things at 2:00am and go to sleep.
