Our Attempted Backyard Campout

We set up our tent, ate our dutch oven dinner, sat around our fire pit, then took down the tent, cleaned up the sleeping bags, and went inside! I think our winds were over hurricane stregnth! Suddenly there was thunder and lightening. Luckily we were in our own backyard, so we didn't have far to go. It was a good thought!

Random Pictures.......

Kevin patiently teaching Korey how to make a sushi roll.

Crazy kids, sitting in the middle of the street. Luckily, we live on a very quiet street.

Salon de Becca

Becca loves to turn the bathroom into a salon and wash her hair.

Max is eating a bone.

This is our new puppy, Isabella. She is a nice little puppy.

He made it!

Kevin is officially "home" for the next 4 months.

He will post pictures, but as we all know, getting Kevin to give details is quite a chore. I will post information as he tells me things.....

He arrived in Spain this morning around 6:00 am my time, 1:00pm in Spain.

We learned a lot about traveling with his "cheap" flight from Paris to Madrid.

The plane ticket was only $100- BARGAIN! But the maximum weight on his

suitcases were 44 pounds, instead of the standard US 50 pounds.

So he had 2 suitcases overweight and had to paid for each kilogram he was over.

He said he had to pay an additional $300 to get his suitcases to Madrid! NOT GOOD!

But there was no other choice. He couldn't leave his things in Paris!

I guess we will have to learn some lessons the hard (and expensive) way.

But he is in Madrid and he is moved into his little, teeny apartment.

He has a shelf in the refrigerator for his food.

He has a dresser, desk, bed, and bathroom in his room.

He went grocery shopping with people from his building, no one from USA.

He ordered pizza and ate with everyone. I think it is a great experience for him.

I am very happy that he has such a wonderful opportunity.
