Seeing Folks from Budapest

We are spending the night with some ministry partners, who live in the same town as the Winters (friends who just moved here from Budapest). We went to their house for dinner this evening. It was so good to see them again, and it felt like we were all in Hungary (except for the chocolate chip mint brownie ice cream- yum! yum!). I figured that some of you Budapest folks may enjoy seeing a pic of the kids (well, some of them).

Their oldest is quite interested in football, so watched a game after dinner, but the younger three wanted to play with Ethan the whole time. It was fun to watch them interact with him (and sometimes argue over him).

This was just a fun picture I thought I'd throw on here too. Some people from Gary's parents' church leant us a bunch of baby things for our time in CO. This jump up thing was one of them. Ethan doesn't like to stay in it for long, but has got the hang of jumping around some. He is also rocking back and forth on his knees and will probably begin to crawl before we leave the US. One advantage to that is most American homes have carpeting and sometimes he falls foward on his head while trying to maneuver on his knees. We won't have the carpeting in Hungary, so it's nice for him to have some cushion. The disadvantage is that once he starts crawling, one of us won't be able to really have a conversation with people we are visiting (due to Ethan being so mobile). So, we'll just see how it goes over the next month and a half.
