Dishes, dishes, dishes, beer, and more dishes

Nykele

So. Many. Dishes.  They rarely stop coming. Adam and I switched today, he got to play outside and I was in the kitchen. The kitchen can certainly be enjoyable. And I would rather do dishes than toilets any day so there's a plus. I was able to practice my dicing skills, got myself a blister and I was even holding the knife the way I was taught....hmmm fishy. 

We got our first round of German's today. They are... A bit more demanding than the French. I was hoping to be able to practice my German but haven't quite gotten the chance. Any time I was around them today they were asking me for a beer, coke, Arnold Palmer  or wine. We don't serve alcohol at the Rockin' R but people can bring their own in. All of it was in the fridge so we had to bring it out for them. So I cracked open my first beers tonight, guess that's what you're supped to do before you give it to them. We'll see what fun they bring tomorrow.

Recap from the past few days: we have an English family staying here, the kids are two (S) and four (T) and are so precious! The four year old boy (T) talks like an adult, from first conversation I would have labeled him as six or seven. And his little sister is such a doll, she has cute cheeks and a darling smile. I was able to spend a lot of time with them the past few days. I could listen to them talk all day long. I went on a hike with them yesterday to Butch Cassidy's old hideout. Ya that's pretty sweet, his descendants still live around here so they have shown one of his spot in a grouping of rocks. T would say "we're going to the naughty cowboys hideout"- put that in an bright English accent :) yup cute. We learned some of the different words they have for things, like sweat pants are tracksie-bottoms, our chips are their crisps, our fries are their chips.    We later rode in the arena. Little S rode the donkey-Hallelujah, and T rode a horse. We rode the day before as well. I got the horse to run for him the day before so he was asking that I lead his horse :). Made me happy. I love being able to get to know families. This family has been here since Tuesday and leaves tomorrow. They are such a joy! I'll be sad when they go.

Well sleep is calling.

Adam is not feeling so well. He's had a soar throat the past day or two, so he's already asleep. He'll catch up tomorrow. He enjoyed the sun today though :) Yey!
