The Nephews!

Hey Mom!  Though we would take the time and introduce you to our host family's nephews: Jake (16) and Zach (11).  They hung with us often when we did things!  We also tried to help out as much as possible too! For example, while at a restaurant, Zach was discussing a Math problem he was having trouble with.  Of course, we tried to assist in the equation.....but then decided just to eat more French Fries!  

Mom, we are in love with Heinz ketchup, by the way....we need to make sure we have LOTS at home!  hahaa!

With Jake, we love to watch Basketball games with him on the BIG 70" TV and also just sit and relax playing games on the iPad.  Regardless of what we do, the nephews are fun to be with!

Talk to you again soon!  Love you, Mom!!!

New Addiction!

Hi Mom!  We thought we would let you know that we have a new addiction.... Words With Friends!  Our host mom, Michele, showed us how to play the word game, which is very much like Scrabble, on her iPad.  Well, we really like it and are doing real well!  We are also learning new words!  LOL!  

Just wanted to say "Hi" and let you know we are happy, safe, and love you!  

We will try not to stay up TOO late playing!
