Saturday and Sunday

Saturday

The boys both arrived safely! :-) We saw Jaime, first. He was quickly whisked away by the Cramer family before we even spotted Javier! :-)

Javier got off the bus quickly, too. We would have been one of the first ones to leave to go home..., but I was busy talking to people! My children would say that is not at all unusual for me, which is true! :-D

Javier is so tall! He is taller than William and Elizabeth!!! And me! :-) Here is a photo of the children.

Hannah, Eugenie, Elizabeth, William, and Javier

Sunday

We went to Chippewa Valley Bible Church in the morning. We stayed for a going-away luncheon for Brian and Dawn who were the youth directors at the church.

Later in the afternoon, the children an I went to Lowes Creek County Park for about a one hour walk. We took Earl with us, too--Earl loves this park! :-) Elizabeth and her friend Damian arrived at the park. They came after we had arrived. We could not find them, and they could not find us. As we were driving out of the parking lot, they saw us driving away! They met us back home a few minutes later. :-)

We got something to drink at home. Then I took them to Carson Park to see statues of the very American Paul Bunyon and Babe which Javier has already seen. Next, we drove through part of the University of Wisconsin of Eau Claire to see the "UWEC" on the hill (like you see on postcards). We quickly went into Putnam Park which is right along the Chippewa River by UWEC to see Little Niagra. Javier has also seen this. Eugenie's cousin recently saw Niagra Falls up along the Canadian and United States border, so I wanted her to say she saw Niagra, too! :-)

We went home and ate Rice, Meat, and Sauerkraut. It is a Hungarian dish my mother used to make. I put red kidney beans in with it, too, so my mom has told me it is now a Hungarian and Mexican meal! :-}
