Donkey kong and cupcakes!

Geez, I never thought I would be beaten in a computergame by a 9-year old... But I guess the day had to come.
Ethan is a blast! He's really chatty, funny and just sweet. So no annoying little brother here :)
I really have to get used to the everyday life in the house. Jason and Julie work a lot, so they have a nanny - she's really sweet. She takes care of Ethan, the house and the dog while the J's are at work. She also cooks food all the time, which I'm totally not used to, I'm used to cooking my self or helping out my mom, so it's something new. I guess I'll just have to get used to it... *sigh*... haha, no, it's all good, it just makes me totally lazy.
But I do have to clean my own room and bathroom, and I have to wash my clothes. So it's not all glamour... which is probably for the best.

Yesterday Jason, Julie, Ethan and I drove home from the grandparents in Kelowna. On the way back we went to Costco (a huuuge store with everything in BIG size). It seems like Canadians just like everything sized up a bit. Furnitures are big, houses are big, food is big... some people are big.. It's funny.
After being at Costco, Julie and I did some preparations for dinner. We were going to eat at Bill and Tereza's (my next hostfamily), and being there was lots of fun! They are just wonderful people. Bill showed me pictures of him as a real cowboy, and Tereza just talked and talked and showed me the house and my room. We talked about Danish food and also Hungarian food, since Tereza is originally from Hungary.
It's really nice that they only live 3 houses away, and that my hostfamily are such good friends with them. :)

Oh, and also I have to show some pictures from the big family party in Kelowna! It was a 70-years birthday, but everyone got a cute cupcake with their age on it. And I helped making frosting - yaay! They were so yummi. The party was really fun, and everyone was so nice.
