The Fam
So we just spent our first night with our host families and mine is wonderful. It was a little awkward because we all got in a line and walked into a huge room where they called out our name and our parents came up to get us with flowers for us. We kind of felt like we were being auctioned off, but our parents are really nice. My mom, as I said before, is only 20, but she is very welcoming. She knows some english, which is also very helpful. I absolutely love our father because he´s really goofy. He makes little sound effects and hand motions all the time. He´s hilarious. (Of course they are nothing compared to my own parents, but I guess they´ll do 😊 ) My dad reminds me a lot of Uncle Tom because they look exactly alike..it´s a little weird... Their house is very nice and their baby is absolutely adorable. Our parents go out of their way to make sure we are comfortable ALL the time. Javier (the dad) came into our room last night and had 3 options for pillows and asked Mindy if she needed a night table by her bed. She said she didnt need one, but about a half hour later he came walking in the house with a table over his head that he had gone out to get. They are great and I´m sure it is going to be a great week. Everything else is going very well and we are having a lot of fun.
Adios!!!
