We had a birthday party for
Eloise. I helped by cutting fruits and decorating the room. In
the evening, many of Eloise's friends and their family members gatherd. I
was nervous, but I talked to many people. The children played with piñata
. We also ate a very cute cake. I really enjoyed the
American-style birthday party.
Before going to bed, I showed
Abbie and Chris some of the pictures I had brought, and talked about them. Abbie
and Chris also showed me a lot of photos and shared stories. It was
a lovely time.

We went
to WinCo and H-Mart to get ingredients to make
yakisoba
at night. I made
yakisoba for dinner. I thought I had made too much, but everyone ate a
lot, so I was very
happy.

I met the
Stone family. First, we went to the Glass
Museum and bought some souvenirs. Then we took a ferry to
Maury Island. We visited a popular antique shop,
and had
pizza for lunch, and saw the big troll statue. We went to Kari's friend's house, which was a beautiful home. I also visited the Stone family's house, which was like a museum
filled with antiques and decorations. I loved their house. For dinner we ate hamburgers at
Red Robin. They were so delicious. After that, I returned to the
Nutt family's house. I felt sad, but Will said, "I will see you again," which made me
happy.

I watched the
movie "The Wizard of Oz." It is Abbie's favorite movie, and I found it very
interesting. In the afternoon, Chris, Eloise, Arthur, Lydia, and I went to
a seaside park. Eloise looked like she was having so much fun. Arthur and Lydia wore cute
clothes. We enjoyed playing with a soccer ball. I really felt close to nature.
Before going to bed, Eloise and I read a book"Peter Rabbit" together.

I

a bonsai
display. The bonsai
trees were beautiful. I made a Japanese omelet for Wii and
Kari. I was happy because they
really enjoyed it and ate a lot. In the afternoon, Will and I went near the mountain
and rode a motorcycle. I had a dinner with the Nutt family and the Stone
family at a Mexican restaurant. I was hungry, and ate a lot. I was happy because I ate dinner with
the

I
went to Seattle with Abbie. We visited a flea
market and bought some souvenirs. Then we went to Abbie's friend's shop. Her artwork was so beautiful, and she gave me a sticker as a
gift. We also ate bagels, which were delicious. After returning home, I went to the beach with Chris, Eloise, Arthur, and Lydia.
It was very cold with heavy rain and strong wind, but I enjoyed walking hand in hand with
Eloise.
