The Seventeenth Day

Well. Today I woke up but hung out in my room and got ready and then I went down 11ish or maybe a little earlier. But apparently Lisa slept in until 10:20 or so! Shocked face.

Then Mutti asked if we wanted to bike to the store or walk. I turned out to be a genius because I chose biking and it started raining so we didn't have to walk home in the rain. We bought cupcake mix. I chose the Prinzessin one.

So then Lisa made the cupcakes. I helped put the hearts on!!

 We (the girls) went to eat "Chinese" food. I don't count anything as real Chinese food unless it's at Xiaohong's house. But it was yummy. The portion was huge though. We had to sit for a couple minutes before we could get up after we finished eating. And I heard Asian German!

 Then, we just looked in shops.

We found these cool bubble jelly things that you put in water and then they grow. You put them in glass for decoration like pebbles or marbles. They were cool.

Blowing. I kind of failed.

We found out about Lisa's secret plans to marry a certain Tom.

Then, we tried on heels. I found sparkly gold ones!!

Lisa then proceed to walk around the store like a model and strike poses. Germany's next top model! And she was also happy because she found a pair of shoes she liked. (not the gold heels)

We went to another store to look at more toilet seats. Seashells are a recurring theme. Where is my purple sparkly toilet seat??

GERMANY!!

Lighters...fire..

I RODE A UNICORN!!!! No big deal or anything..

We took a picture in one of those beach seat things.

Lisa was making a super funny super serious face like some guy we saw in the newspaper and I wanted to take a picture but my camera was being slow and Mutti was telling her not to make an ugly face like that or else it will be all over the internet so I got her laughing face instead :)

Then, we went home to get ready for the good-bye party. It was in the container because the auditorium is under renovation. 

Reunited with my baby. She was a bit wrinkled from her stay with Madi.

Crowded into a room to watch the photo slideshow.

Family ♥♥♥

The party was okay. Shelbi organized the card and flowers for the two German teachers and we gave them those. The food was good. Our princess cupcakes and cupcakes from Oma that we took were a success. The strawberries were really yummy too. 

And I took Libby home. She needed a nap from all her travels.

Like daughter, like momma.

Herr Milde also gave us shopping bags, stickers, and school planners. They're the planners the German students got on the last day of school.

 I like to take stalker pictures of Lisa from the upstairs bathroom window when she is in the garden eating peas. 

That was my second to last day. Madi and I talked earlier about how we were glad to go home but how we were going to miss our family here and agreed to cry together in the car on the way to Berlin. We mentioned it at the party and Lisa was like why would you cry. And then I asked her if she cried when she left me. She said no. But I told her that I cried when she left. So now I'm not going to cry because she's not going to cry. ...right.
