Guests

July is our summer for guests I guess. First off, we have a 17 year old from the Nicaraguan village where Dave and the youth have been several times on mission trips. We are having a great time getting to know him and learn better Spanish while helping him learn better English!

He is briefly staying at another family's house while we host Dave's parents, sister Corinna, and nephew Alex for one night. Corinna and Alex are here all the way from Texas and were able to squeeze our house in for a quick stay before they fly back home after a trip to Portland.

Justin and Alex are having a grand time together digging up treasure with Justin's metal detector. They also burned up lots of energy playing Xbox Kinect together.

Next up will be my parents coming in on Sunday. We have loved all the company!

At dinner tonight, Dave and I were astounded when Justin received the following fortune:

"You are a bundle of energy and always on the go." The truest fortune Justin has ever received!
