Thursday

This morning, the boys went to Strength and Conditioning while the girls slept in. :-) It was a real work out for the boys! Javier is more used to doing this than William. :-}

For lunch, we had Natchoes, and corn chips with salsa.

Elizabeth and Ana went to Oakwood Mall while the boys played games on the computer and their ipods.

We ate Lasagna and a salad for dinner. We then went to Bowl Winkles for a night of bowling. Jaime, Paloma, Javier, Ryan, and William bowled together, and Ana, Hannah, Elizabeth, and Ana's friends bowled together. I bounced back between the two lanes taking photos and talking to them all. It was fun!!! :-)

Shelby took Ana and Elizabeth to Eva's softball game in Seymor, Wisconsin. The Cramer's also took Jaime and Ryan to the game because Eva and Kendall play on the same softball team!!! :-) Lesa Cramer, too, knows Eva's family, so Ana is going to a family that is known and who has hosted before. :-) Several years ago, Eva, her mom Teresa, and their sweet Spanish student Paula had come to our house to release butterflies in our back yard. :-)

After Shelby brought Elizabeth home, she went to her room, then came out and sadly said, "My room is empty, again. Everyone is leaving me!" :-{ Two weeks ago, Eugenie left us after staying with us for two months. Eugenie lives in Switzerland.

Elizabeth, Ana, and Eva hope to do things together, so Elizabeth and Ana are happy. I'm sure Eva will be, too! :-)
