Family Day in Edelény

Wednesday, July 12, we visited Edelény again.  We were expecting that there would only be about 15-20 people there this time so we planned accordingly and had a few extra supplies, just in case. It's a good thing, because . . . those numbers quickly increased.

We began our session with an “English” class discussing families and learning family words such as Mother, Father, son, daughter, etc. During this part of the session, there were approximately 15 adults and about 15-20 children.

We have been trying to figure out who belonged to who, so we decided a lesson on families was a good time to group everyone into families and take some family pictures. So here are a few of our feeble attempts to do some very quick family pictures.

 

After the class, we started to roast marshmallows and make S’mores.  By the time we were done, we think we had close to 50 people there.  Unfortunately we didn’t get to take any pictures during this time because there were so many people there and we were busy putting marshmallows onto the roasting sticks.  It's a good thing we planned for a few more than we were told would be there, but we probably could have used almost twice as many marshmallows, chocolate chips and cones as we had.  We were thrilled to have so many there, but wish we had brought more marshmallows and all.  Oh well, fun was had by all anyway.  We love our visits and love being able to spend time with these great families.
