Rob and the California George Family

Major kudos to FlyingVan and family for their hosting of a reunion of various high school / college years friends this past weekend. Everyone in the family had a great time. The problem with reunions is that they are often fun for those that were there and wicked boring for those that were not. This was not the case here. The kids had a great time, the spouses seemed to enjoy it, and there was plenty of variety in food and activities for everyone.

It was great to see everyone, but also equally great to have a fun weekend for the entire family.

A few days ago, an email plea came through our company looking for families to host exchange students. Several of them are due in the country soon and their trip will have to be cancelled if they are not placed. Since we have an extra bedroom now, we decided to look into it. Lee and Tina had such an awesome experience that we decided that it would be worth a try.

Wow are things moving fast! We have an in-home interview tomorrow and we have started cleaning up and painting that extra bedroom. Tons of work, but hopefully a life changing experience is on the way. The girls are excited about the idea.

If all goes well, we will have a student living with us before the end of the month. Hopefully we will survive the preparation process!
