Friday Evening
JC called to tell me that he LOVES his host family. The mother speaks fluent English which helps alot. He is paired up with Skyler who is also having a good time. They have 4 children in the family, one is away, one is out for the evening and the other two are ages 12 and 9. 3 of them are boys and 1 is a girl. JC said they all speak english except the 9 year old. I asked him what they had for dinner and he said he didnt know but it was good so he doesnt want to know. The mother is making tomorrow a surprise to whatever they will be doing. The entire group went swimming and shopping today and had fun together. I hope me blogging all of this helps the parents who have not heard from their children. And dont feel bad I dont hear from my daughter only my son. I have only received 1 text message from my daughter, so I know how you all must be feeling. I will keep you posted as he tells me things.

Hi, Its nice to know that someone has heard from their child. I have yet to hear from our son, Cameron. He did speak to Roberts' father when he called him. I know he is having a good time, but I would like to hear it from him. Well, there are still two weeks left(ha,ha). Vernae/Michael(Cameron's parents)
I am in D.C. with my mom, but I spoke with my husband today and he said that Gavin left a message on our home answering machine. It was very short, but he said he was having fun. I had very little doubt that that was the case, but it was nice to have confirmation. I am so bummed I didn't get to talk to him, though!
Sherry,thanks for all the details about the homestay family. I spoke to Schuyler yesterday and he also said that the family was very nice as well as the house. I didn't get any details about what they were going to do on Saturday except maybe go to the store to get some foods/snacks they might like. He had been looking forward to this part of the trip and seems very excited. He said John (JC)was doing fine. I'm sure I will get more details tonight.
PS. He did mention that the family was going to show them how to wash their clothes.
