Childhoooooooooooooddd

I have known my Ecuadorian childhood friends for my entire life and we always hung out together in a group. The first one of my friends is Juan Martin Montejo. He was basically the leader of our friendship group, he was the oldest, and always made up all the good games to play, he was like Tommy from the rug rats, we basically just did what he told us to do. Then there was Juan Martin's cousin, Martina Rios. She was also a little older than me, by s few months actually, and as a result she was kind of like the co leader of the group, she was also really bossy do she was like Angelica from the rug rats. Then came me, I was third oldest and for little while I was also the youngest, I was kind of like Chucky. We all hung out whenever our parents would get together which was almost every weekend or every other weekend but when I was around two years old they all got brothers and sisters which would also become part of our friendship group. First came Juan's brother, Jose Inacio, but we all just call him Bocha, and my parents are actually his godparents. And then came Martina's brother Fransisco, and we nicknamed him Pancho. Bocha and Pancho are the same age so they were kind of like the twins from the rug rats. That is basically the group, although at cook outs and stuff we would normally invite their cousins or my cousins but the people I named are the main people I always hung out with. All my memories of them are kind of like the backyardigans, at my house at Ecuador I have a really big big back yard, I'm saying huge like I had a jungle in the backyard but it was pretty safe and isolated. The jungle had hills and small rocky uphill sides so we would always make adventures and everything. One time we actually made a base for our group and that's where we would always go play, it was like this flat part kind of outside my house and its surrounded by trees. The cool part though is that I asked my dad to build us a base on that very location and he ended up contracting some guy to build us a mini house up there with electricity and everything, we played there for a while but eventually it got full of dirt and big bugs including spiders the size of the palm of your hands. The mini house is still there today but we kind of covered it with graffiti. We had dozens of different adventures as kids, so many that it would take hours and hours to tell them all. I still see my friends every time I go to Ecuador, but we're a lot older now so we just kind of watch tv and play Xbox. My childhood was pretty good.
