Busy Busy Busy

So I think it has been about 3 months since my last blog entry, well that would be because I have been super busy. So my last entry was a little bit whiney because of a bad week, so this one is going to be happier.

I have been super occupied all summer, but it has been in a good way not a bad way. I have so far worked at 3 camps, 2 with elementery aged children and one with high schoolers, I have visited 15 cities and I have a few more to go yet this summer. I have seen beautiful things, castels old churches, beautiful outlooks over the city, towers, museums, and much more. I have met interesting people from places including England, New Zealand and China. I have worked with new and interesting people with the camps. I have met children that are nothing but excited to learn from the strange but cool Americans :) It has been a very interesting summer so far and I am thouroughly enjoying every minute of it.

In these adventures I have been able to stay and see friends that I had not seen for a while, so in addition to seeing the sights, I was able to hang out with friends once again which is always nice. I have had some delicious home cooked meals, including ostrich and rabbit (that was only once), and was able to enjoy a glass of wine or a beer here and there with friends. It has really been great.

Also along the way I was blessed with the birth of my nephew, Fredrick Robert Henry Busse II, thankfully he is healthy and mom is doing well to. I can't wait until I will be able to hold him next year when I come home, but he won't be so little then!! My other two nieces are growing like weeds, everytime I see pictures or talk with them on Skype I can't believe how big that they are getting, they are just growing like weeds! Especially Josee, she is so tall now and has changed so much. Blair is also growing and is turning into quite the little swimmer from what I understand, I am so proud of everything that she has accomplished so far.

Let's see what else can I ramble on about. I will be going back to my site in a few days, just to leave yet again. I will prepare for another camp which will last a week, then go onto my mid service training, then hang around in the south for a few days and finally go to the airport to pick up my parents! I am so excited for them to come and visit me!!! I miss them so much. We are going to do some traveling around Romania, see the sites in Transylvania and then go to Rome for a few days. I am very excited to go to Italy, but more excited to see my parents and spend some much needed time with them. I am sure that once they get back they will have many stories to tell everyone and many adventures to share that were experienced along the way.

Well I think that is all for now, I know it was rather broad and vague, but the whole story would be way to long to write and could probably fill a book. I am looking forward to the rest of my summer and the experiences I have yet to have, it will surely be more of an adventure! :) I hope you are all doing well and I miss you all dearly. Less than a year and I will be home, hard to believe I have already been here for a whole year! I am sending you hugs and kisses!

Va iubesc!
Mi-e dor de voi!
Va pup!

~Until later
