イアンがミネソタへ出稼ぎに行っている間
私とショーンを助けに、私の両親が日本から来てくれました

色々楽しませてもらっています
Ian has gone for a summer job in Minnesota
While he is gone, my parents came to help me and Sean out
My father could only stay here for a week but my mother will be here for 2month!
We've been having a lot of fun
They brought a special gift for Sean
Red Rock Trail.
Yes, I who is 8month pregnant went with them:)

夏 Summer

最近３０℃を超える日が続いています
暑い・・
でも乾燥している分
クーラーなんて要りません
日本の夏とは大違いです
手作りスムージーさえあれば
この暑さはしのげます！
Lately, we've been having some hot days
but it's a dry heat
so we don't really need an AC
It's such a difference from the summer in Japan
We just need a cup full of homemade smoothie
and that's all we need to cool off!

我が家の小さなパティオ
ハーブや花を植えて楽しんでいます
Our small patio
we planted some flowers and herbs
and are enjoying our "gardening"

イアンのお父さんと
先日伝道から帰還したばっかりのイアンの弟アレックが
１１時間かけてユタから車で来てくれました
３日間だけの短い間だったけど
楽しかったです
特にアレックも日本語がぺらぺらになっていたのには
驚いたプラス嬉しかったです
Ian's dad and his brother who just returned from the mission
drove all the way from Utah to visit us
It took 11hrs.. Thank you, papa and Alec for all the efforts!
They were here for only 3days but we had a lot of fun
It was surprising for me to see Alec speaking Japanese fluently
but more than that,
I was so happy to be able to communicate in my native language with him
