Our italian student - Manuela DalMas has come to stay for the semester. We are learning a teeny tiny bit of Italian andshe is kicking butt in English. We have plenty of trips planned. Just finished a weekend in Las Vegas. Hollys birthday is this week. Sarah next month. David is doing great in Italy and is on the countdown. Mike and I just hit 22 years. Alrighty then.

July again. More Foreign Exchange students. This time from France. Two lovely girls named Marine and Marion. This is our summer fun. Veronika even came back for a 2 month visit. We are lucky to have her visit again.

David is doing wonderful in Italy. Hes in a little town called Trento, Italy up in the mountains. Its a little cooler up there and he is enjoying the weather and the people. the girls are enjoying their summer vacation. Holly starts this year in school as a High schooler. Sarah will be in 7th grade. We also have the fortune of having Manuela coming to visit from Italy this year and staying a semester. This will Help Holly in her Italian homework. lol.

Mothers Day

David using his few weeks of Piano lessons

Yeah - I had a fabulous Mother's day. It started off at 7:30 am with a Skype with our Missionary in Italy. He is looking good. Doing good and Enjoying Italy.

Then I took a little nap and was suprised with Breakfast in Bed. they were making WAFFLES. mmmmmmm. After that a little church then a meal at my sisters house provided by the men in the family. Very nice, very relaxing day.

I even got the night off to spend more time with my family. I love being a mom. I love my children and my MAN. Life is goot!!!
