Festivities!

 The past two days have been full of cooking!!!!!! Yesterday we spent the day with I and L and we went to the mall. We ate some interesting food. Rachel got this stuff called gado gado. It was tons of vegetables   filled with this really sweet peanut sauce that was kinda like peanut butter. She really did not like it, so instead she bought something else.  I had rice and beef that was ssooooooo sweet. I ate it though.  Also, this corn,carrot, and celery. It was interesting. Then, we went to the grocery store and bought all of the things that we needed to cook our fourth of july feast!  By the time we got home it was already 5 pm and we still hadn't started cooking. We spent the rest of the night cooking (everything from scratch) Baked beans, Mashed potatoes, Hamburgers,  potato chips. I made peach and Apple cobbler which were a pretty big hit I might add.  We came home late and then had some fun deep discussion with B and G. Today, We all gathered and spent the day "fellowshipping" and reading out of our favorite book.  I ended up singing for everyone and playing piano. ( I thought it was interesting , but they really enjoyed it. We are know I am not Casey Roberts) After that, we ate and spent the rest of the afternoon playing games and talking about life.  Mafia, Asa, and Fruit Game, are all quickly becoming our favorites..   We met a lady who is a doctor and she said that one day we could come to her clinic and watch and maybe help a little! Won't that be really cool? Tomorrow we are going to teach policemen how to speak basic English. In a couple of months, This city will be hosting the Sea Games which is like the olympics for Asia . Everyone is building new hotels and everyone is trying to get ready for them! SO that is what we will be doing for the next couple of mondays! I hope you all have a wonderful Fourth of July!! :) Love you all and have more updates soon :)
