Day 14

HEJ! (that's Swedish for "hello" :P ) 


I learned a new phrase yesterday that I forgot to mention... Jag pratar inte Svenske... which translates to "I don't talk Swedish," or you could say "Jag talar inte Svenske" which translates to "I don't speak Swedish." They taught me how to say I speak a little Swedish tonight, but I already forgot it :) Also, last night we had grilled bananas with chocolate for dessert... they sliced open the whole banana and put some kind of chocolate in the cut that they made, then they wrapped the whole banana in tin foil and grilled it on the grill. We had that with some vanilla ice cream. It was interesting. 


Now let's talk about today...


This morning I was supposed to meet Kelsey and Ingrid at this small gravel park area near the school at 9am so I could catch while Ingrid practiced pitching. We rode the bikes there yesterday and it took like 1 minute to get there so I thought it would be no problem... wrong. I went the wrong way and got lost and couldn't figure out how I was missing it so I had a text from Ingrid that asked if I wanted them to ride by the house so I could follow them or if I was meeting them there. I texted back saying for them to come get me because I got lost and was heading back to the house now. So anyways, I caught for about an hour and then we rode back to the house. I told Kelsey I was going to lay out in the backyard so once she changed into her bathing suit she met me out there. After a couple of hours in the sun, I made myself a sandwich for lunch and then got ready for practice at 2pm. Ingrid's husband came out and hit us fly balls for most of the practice and then we hit live off of Kelsey. Practice ended about 4:30, so we biked back to the house to get showered and changed for the get together at Ingrid's at 6. We had chips and cheeseburgers with swedish lemonade, and then Marie made homemade blueberry pie for dessert with vanilla ice cream and creamy vanilla sauce, which was DELICIOUS, and Emelie's mom made Locta Cocka?? haha it's like a sponge cake with raspberries in it, and that was delicious also. 


We left Ingrid's around 8:45 and biked back to the house. So now we are waiting for the rest of the family to get home so we can have our family meeting so everybody knows what's going on this week. 


Mom's birthday is tomorrow, I'm sad I can't be there to celebrate with her but I know she'll have a blast with Mrs. Christine wherever they decide to go for dinner! 


Well I hope yall enjoyed hearing about my day today! I'll see you again tomorrow :)
