Today we stayed around the house doing yard work. Elena has 2 small dogs, 3 cats, 2 horses, and 5 chickens. This morning I woke up with one dog laying on my ankles, one dog laying on my side, and a cat in my face sniffing my mouth- a little frightening to wake up to but no big deal. Every morning we take the dogs out and feed the horses.
I mowed the lawn today and got a nice shorts tan. Great, my first tan in Hawaii for the summer and its an awkward tan! Oh well hopefully it'll go away soon.
After we finished helping in the yard we made Elena's mom a late lunch/dinner of lasagna, potatoes, casserole, and fruit salad. It was yummy!
Then Elena introduced me to African Tulip Tree buds. When you break the tip off and squeeze it, it squirts water out like a water gun! It was pretty neat and was a nice cool down after working outside!
After dinner Elena and her mom got their guitars, her dad got his flute and they had me grab my ukulele and we played for a little while. And, I've been roped into playing for children's story with them this week at church....Oi.
It will be great! Sorry I didn't truly warn you of the possibilities ahead of time...
