England Day 40: Who spiked the lasagna?

Thursday was a fantastic day. Started like any other with a fabulous blitz. We then moved to clubs and had a fun exploration club. We were a little unorganized when we started because we were switching our schedule and adding new things because the kids wanted to write in their journals about all the things they had found. So the kids wrote about their findings and then we had them do some coloring rubbings with the leaves. The pictures looked really neat. After that, we had the kids make some funky bugs with puff balls and pipe cleaners. The kids had so much fun with that and they looked so cute! I loved them!

After clubs, we had lunch and then went on break. After break I spent another lovely day in open rec. Got to play some UNO flash of course pool and video games. It's interesting to get to know the preteeners. They are so different from the younger kids. Worried about boys and how they look. This shouldn't be happen. Not until high school. lol.

When open rec was over, we headed home for what was going to be an interesting night. We made lasagna and started our normal Thursday meeting. I don’t know what was going on with us or if had spiked the lasagna but we were crazy. We kept throwing out ideas for the African Safari theme the next week like singing songs from the Lion King, out of tune might I add. We also picked a new song to sing one of the days but no one knew the tune so we made one up and we were adding crazy movements to it. It was a ridiculous night. We were all laughing so hard and we sounded crazy. I’m not sure if it was lack of sleep or if there was something in the lasagna but it was silly. Lol.

After our meeting and the craziness, we moved to the hall to work on our posters. We made some beautiful posters and had more fun chilling in the hall with each other listening to crazy songs. It was just a fun night with all the girls and we all got a little closer. I feel like by the end of this trip I will not want to leave these awesome girls. I have so much fun with them and they are becoming my family. It will definitely be sad saying goodbye. But we’re already planning trips to see each other so hopefully we’ll be able to do that when we get back to the states. :)

Cheerio.
