As usual I only have a moment but I thought I could just post a quick update.
It is Friday and the kids go to host families tonight before dinner. Sarah is going with Pau from Mexico and Marie is going with Marie from Norway. They are both super excited. Noah is going with Paco from Mexico and Mitch with William from Norway.... I did not realize until just now that they are the same countries.
Last night was our national night and it went quite well. We were worried if it was going to go well at all, for we were doing it with Canada whos leader then got sick... and both Sarah and Noahs stomachs were bothering them (the stomach flu is going around camp at the moment, though neither have it, just a stomach ache). So while I was trying to plan national night I was also being doctor Samm and running around nonstop. Desipte the complications we had a great time.
We and Canada talked a bit about our countries then we did three stations. One with string to make bracelets, one to play basketball and one to learn (or try to!) Euchre. Many people liked the little but of Euchre they played and want to play it again today which is awesome. At each station we gave away some of the litting things we had. Then we all did the Cha Cha Slide, getting everyone to dance with us, and then we made Smores, which people loved.
Everyone had fun and it was fun for us. And now that it is over we all feel a load of stress gone. From here on out we have nothing huge to do and it feels great.
It is lunch time, and I am starving, so this is all for now. I will post a lot more tonight after the kids go to families!
