family

K- went to Mikes daughters high school graduation... So much fun! We got to Yakima around noon and stopped by Lena's house so nathan can say hi to his mom. Lena is Mike's ex-girlfriend, the one that sliced his hand open, so i was WORRIED. But she has a new man, so she was happy. WTF is with native women?? Are they ALL Nuckin Futs? (My brother is dating a Tulalip bitch that is PSYCHO!!!) Okay, nate visited for a bit, then they dropped me off at my aunts so mike could spend time with his daughters. I visited with my aunt and uncle for a few hours, turns out they know Mikes family. His family is HUGE and Hoptowit is a very popular last name. In fact, Mikes cousin is general manager of the casino that my cousin is the head of security at. Cool, huh?

5PM snuck up on us pretty quick and mike came back to get me. With Michelle (18) and Brandy (12) Both daughters are beautiful. Long black hair, dark eyes, never stop smiling. Just Awesome. Nate was in his prime, playing big brother and little brother. Went to the graduation, where Mike sat next to me and his mom sat behind me. Every 15 minutes she would touch my shoulder and make sure i was okay. And mike kept his hand in mine att all times except when we were filming. LoL I didnt have even one panic attack!!! I was SOOOO happy. Afterward, we hugged and took pictures, Michelle said she will come visit us this summer.

Brandy cant cause last summer she was arrested (!) for shoplifting and Lena says mike should have watched her better. But I told her we would work on it. Poor brandy thought i meant i would try to get her home with us immediatly, so she went into pack. Mike told her when we come back in July, maybe then, but she and nathan MUST finish school first. She jumped back out of the car and ran inside. Nate hugged his mom and we started off. We hadn't made it off tribal land when Mike pulled over. I asked what was wrong, and he told me i had to drive. When we were switching places, Mike opened the back door, and pulled Nate out. Poor nate was just bawling, which started Mike, which started me. So the next 15 minutes, we're on the side of the road, just crying. And, like a bitch, Lena and her boyfriend drove by... without Brandy. So we doubled back and the poor girl was making microwave mac-&-cheese. she said her mom borrowed the 20$ Mike had given her... and left. Mike hit the roof. We grabbed Brandy's bag and took her with us. I thought we were bringing her home, but mike said we can't take her off tribal land; its kidnapping. So we dropped her off at Mikes aunts-- she hates Lena and loves the kids so she promised mike she wouldn't tell. Stage 1 of child custody is beginning a little sooner than we expected, but its time. That girl is hurting so so bad.
