- Onsdag var en lidt hektisk dag.. Børnene blev afleveret til klaver kl 10, og jeg tog hen for at få fixet mit person nummer. Det tog ca 30 minutter, så det vil jeg modtage inden for 14 dage. Derefter skulle jeg lige købe lidt ind til mig selv, så jeg kørte til Target købte hvad jeg manglede og hentede Lucy og Eli fra klaver. Theo var først færdig en time efter, så mens vi ventede på ham tog vi i parken. Vi har faktisk været i parken mandag, tirsdag, onsdag og torsdag! :-) Da Theo var færdig hentede vi ham, kørte hjem og fik en snack og så skulle Eli til violin. Lucy, Eli og jeg kørte så Eli til violin, mens Theo blev hjemme. Da violin kun er 30 minutter og det tager ca 15 minutter at køre der hen, tog mig og Lucy til et slags marked med en masse butikker, det lå kun 3 minutter væk fra Eli's violin lærer, så det kunne vi sagtens nå. Vi kiggede os lidt omkring og så tilbage efter Eli. Da vi kom hjem legede børnene i en times tid og så skulle vi afsted med Eli igen! Han skulle nemlig til fødselsdagsfest ved Bella! Han skulle være der kl 17:30, og vi kørte kl 16:50, bare for at være i god tid! Der stod på GPS'en at det ville tage ca 20 minutter. Det jeg bare ikke lige havde tænkt over var at det var der alle fik fri, så det tog HELT VILDT lang tid!!!!!!! Vi var der kl 17:45..... Så næsten en time, men det ved jeg til næste gang, hihi :-) Da vi ankom til adressen var det en stor parkerings plads. Jeg var bange for at jeg havde skrevet den forkerte adresse ind og at vi ville blive endnu mere forsinket, men det var fordi at fødselsdagsfesten blev holdt i en slags legeland bare 1000 gange bedre! Der var trampoliner OVER ALT!!!! Det hed Thin Air! Jeg har vedhæftet nogle billeder nedenfor! :-) :-) Jeg lavede lasagne til aftensmad, men den var lidt vandet, ups hihi :-) Men vi spiste det da og det smagte okay!
P.s Hurtig forklaring! Efter et år hos familien kan man vælge at forlænge med 6 måneder eller 12 måneder mere og i dag da vi kørte hjem fra klaver sagde Lucy:
"Jeg håber ikke du skal være her i 1 år og 6 måneder!"
Jeg kigger i spejlet og spørge:
"Okay, hvorfor håber du ikke det?"
Og Lucy svarer:
"Fordi jeg vil gerne have at du bliver her i 2 år!! Og 1 år og 6 måneder er ikke lang tid!"
Prisen for verdens sødeste pige går til Lucy!!!!!!!

- Torsdag var en stille og rolig dag! Theo tog over til en kammerat og legede mig ham, så det var bare mig, Lucy og Eli her hjemme :-) Vi syede lidt, hoppede i poolen og så cyklede vi! Lucy kan ikke cykle helt endnu, så vi tog cyklerne bag i bilen og kørte til parken for at øve os! Det er min mission at lære Lucy at cykle inden jeg tager hjem her fra, og den er hun med på! Tror skam at hun sagtens kan cykle næste måned, vi skal bare øve os lidt :-) Torsdag var jeg også ude og spise sushi med de andre Au Pair's fra det her område. Der er 3 udover mig, så vi er en lille gruppe! De var rigtig søde og det var helt vildt hyggeligt :D På onsdag snakkede vi om at tage til et slags cowboy sted og ride på en mekanisk tyr, hihi!
- Så blev det endelig fredag! En dag børnene havde glædet sig til, da jeg havde lovet dem at jeg ville tage med dem til deres yndlings restaurant Chick Fil A. Ted havde hjemmefra sagt at det ville være en god ide at køre omkring kl 11, da der ville være mange kl 12. Så vi kørte kl 11, bestilte hvad vi skulle have og satte os ned og spiste! Og ganske rigtigt! Kl 12:00 væltede det ind! Der var folk fra militæret, fra luftvåbnet og sygeplejesker! Det var fuldt med mennesker som stod i kø :-) Efter at børnene havde leget lidt i legetrummet tog vi hjem og spillede scrabble, Theo vandt og jeg kom på en anden plads! :-) Cameron (Lucy's bedste ven) kom over for at lege med Lucy. Til aften var der rester fra onsdag, nemlig min lasagne! :-) Efter aftensmad holdte vi filmaften = Total hygge! :-)
P.s I dag organiserede vi Lucys skab, så alle hende kjole kom på bøjler og hun sagde:
"Jeg har besluttet mig for at jeg vil være en kvinde, det er derfor vi skal have styr på mig tøj!
Lidt billeder fra Chik Fil A!
Scrabble (der skal stå Denver)!
Filmaften! (Y)

//So there has been a little quiet on the blog for a few days, but it's just because I've been so tired at night when I go to bed, and it is actually at that time I usually write on the blog:-) But here comes an update over the past couple of days! :D
-Wednesday was a little hectic.. The children were dropped off at the piano at 10, and I went to get my social security number fixed. It took about 30 minutes, and I will receive it within 14 days. Then I needed to buy some things for myself, so I drove to Target bought what I was missing and picked up Lucy and Eli from the piano. Theo was first finished an hour after, so while we waited for him, we went to the Park. We have actually been in the Park Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday! :-) When Theo was finished we picked him, drove home and got a snack and then Eli had to get to violin. Lucy, Eli and I drove Eli to the violin, while Theo was home. Since violin is only 30 minutes and it takes about 15 minutes to drive there, me and Lucy took to a kind of market with a lot of shops, it was only 3 minutes away from Elis violin teacher, so we could easily go there. We looked around a little and then went back after Eli. When we came home the kids played for an hour and then we set off with Eli again! He was going to a birthday party at Bella! He should be there at 5:30, and we drove at 4:50, just to be in good time! There stood on GPS that it would take about 20 minutes. I just forgot that we are in a big city and most of the people get off their jobs at 5, so it took a long time!!!!!!! We were there at 5:45 ... So almost an hour, but I know that for next time, hihi:-) When we arrived at the address, it was a large parking lot. I was afraid that I had typed the wrong address into the GPS and that we would be even more delayed, but it was due to the fact that the birthday party was kept in a kind of playland just 1000 times better! There were trampolines EVERYWHERE!!!! It was called Thin Air! I've attached some pictures below! :-) :-) I made Lasagna for dinner, but it was more soup with spaghetti I put a lot of water in it ups hihi:-) But we ate it and it tasted okay!
P. s quick explanation! After a year with the family, you can choose to extend the period for 6 months or 12 months more and today as we drove home from the piano Lucy said:
"I don't hope you are going to be here in 1 year and 6 months!
I look in the mirror and ask:
"Okay, why don't you hope that?"
And Lucy responds:
"Because I would like that you will be here in 2 years!! And 1 year and 6 months is not a long time!"
The award for the world's cutest girl goes to Lucy!!!!!!!

Thin Air!
-Thursday was a quiet, peaceful day! Theo took over to a buddy and were playing him, so it was just me, Lucy and Eli at home:-) We sewed a bit, jumped in the pool and then we biked! Lucy may not cycle quite yet, so we took the bikes in the back of the car and drove to the Park to practice! It is my mission to learn Lucy cycling before I take home from here, and she agrees! I think that she can easily cycle next month, we just need to practice a little:-) Thursday I was also out and eating sushi with the other Au Pairs from this area. There are 3 besides me, so we are a small group! They were really sweet and it was very cozy :D On Wednesday we talked about going to a sort of cowboy place and riding on a mechanical bull, hihi!
-So it was finally Friday! A day the children had been looking forward to, since I had promised them that I would take them to their favorite restaurant, Chick Fil a. Ted had said that it would be a good idea to go around 11, as there would be many at 12. So we drove at 11, ordered what we should have and sat down and ate! And sure enough! At 12:00 a.m. people stormed in from everywhere! There were people from the military, from the air force and nurses! It was full with people standing in line. After the children had played in the playroom we drove home and played scrabble, Theo won and I came second! :-) Cameron (Lucy's best friend) came over to play with Lucy. For evening there was leftovers from Wednesday, my lasagna! :-) After dinner it was movie night!
P.s today we organised Lucy's dresses so they came on hangers and she said:
"I have decided that I will be a woman, that's why we need to organise my clothes!"
Some pictures from Chick Fil A!
Scrabble!
Movie night!
-Today (Saturday) I said to Lucy and Eli that they didn't have to wake me! I would like to sleep a bit long. So I stood up at 10! It was much needed:-) We went to the supermarket, and other than that we have just spend time here at home! I finished been reading my book and been in the pool along with Lucy and tonight we got pizza, it tasted so good!!! After dinner we played settlers, it was a really long time since I had played it, but it was a lot of fun!!! :-) Now it's bed time and I'm sunburned, hihi! :-) So good night from here and hope you get a good day!
Settlers!
Hugs Mette
