Tonight all the girls and families got together at Whitney and Emily's house for dinner. It was fun to meet all the host families and see where Whitney and Emily live. Their host mom, Jules, is so sweet and was wonderful to have SO many people over. It was a pizza/pasta potluck night, so everyone brought a pizza or pasta dish to share with everyone. Bro. Jacobs and his wife, Linda, came over too. It was a party! Funny how we see each other all day everyday, but we're still so excited to see each other at dinner and happy to be with everyone. I've only been here a week with these 15 girls, and I already love them all to pieces and feel so close with them. We're all very different, but we all just seem to get along great. There are no small groups or cliques, which is something we've all made sure to avoid. The little girl, Alexis, who is in Heidi and Anna's family, loves the camera! She sang song after song for us; she loves being the center of attention. :) Here is one of her songs called, "You Make The Whole World Smile":
