A Visit to the Mountains
We have had a busy week. Besides the kids usual activities, we welcomed our foreign exchange student from Japan. She has fit in beautifully with the kids; very happy, friendly and polite. There was a square dance at the student pick-up. Drew, Lexi and Adam had fun dancing with Marina (Austin and I joined in toward the end).   On Friday we went back to the farm to pick more black raspberries and currants.    That night Marina cooked us Japanese food; noodles and sauce. It was really good! We love Japanese food so it is always fun when our exchange students introduce us to something new.  Today we went to Rocky Mountain National Park. We got there early so we were able to avoid the usual traffic. We drove up to where the snow was, got to see the beautiful views, and had a picnic (though finding a picnic table after the park got busy turned out to be quite a challenge!).      |
