Last Week In Jyväskylä

The fact that we are actually going home soon has only just begun to sink in with our family. For a while it was out in the distance "yeah, we're going home...sometime..." Now that we've actually had to get rid of things, and have a major clean-out of the apartment, it doesn't seem so much of an idea anymore.

Last night, for a ward activity, we had a 'farewell party' for us and another family who are moving. It was at a family's farm. :)

Here I am making crepes. The mini frying pan was heavy, so I'm struggling to keep it over the fire, but not too close that the poor thing burns. ;)

When I saw the cows, I asked Mom if I could get a cow for my 17th birthday. I walked over to pet it, and it tried to eat my hand off. Mom said no. ...(but later, I was able to tempt the cow into letting me pet it, with a bit of good-looking grass.) This dog is just adorable--so is the kid, but ah! Love love love this big, fury, happy dog!!

:( So sad that to leave the amazing people in Jyväskylä. But, soon we'll be home, and that'll be wonderful. :)

Happy Tuesday!!

P.S. Big shout out to Emilie in France!! (Thanks for including me on your blog post!) Love you em!! <3
