Changes at the Baumbach's

It's been awhile since I posted and I'm sorry about that.  It's busy around here with 4 kids!

We had a wonderful Halloween and you can see all the amazing costumes here and Alena'first and great attempt at carving a pumpkin into a Jack-O-Lantern!
 


We have so much enjoyed our time hosting Alena and meeting other host families who are having an equally wonderful experience, that I have decided to become a Local Coordinator for CIEE.  So, if you are interested in hosting an exchange student or know anyone who is, I would love to talk to you or them.  The website with more information is www.ciee.org/hs/host/ or you can leave a message here and I'll contact you directly!  The emotional rewards of welcoming a student into your home and watching them flourish in a new culture is amazing!  We have all enjoyed and grown from our experience and can't wait to do it again!
