Exchange Students


It's been a while since I left a post so I thought I'd show you all some pictures of my exchange students. I had a group of 12 that I was in charge of for 2 1/2 weeks and then a week before they left we got another boy who will be with us until August 22.

Our older student, Kouichiro is from Hiroshima and our younger student, Naoyasu (yasu for short) is from Okinawa.

Look at Joe and Jordan, don't they look like twins?



We took a walk around town on the hottest day ever! I thought I would die of heat stroke... next time I will take umbrellas like the Japanese girls to keep the sun off...







Kouichiro and the boys hiked around little mountain. I think they wore him out. Most of the time he didn't act 36 but sometimes I could tell he was tired from trying to keep up with them!


We took the three boys to the lake one day. It was not warm enough for them and they got out of the water quick! I guess it's warmer in Japan...








And here they are all dressed up for the farewell party. What a great time we had at the party. They were so funny and energetic! Not like the sad farewell parties we've been to in the past...














Hope you all are having a great summer!
