Family Stay Excursion Photos

Yesterday (Tuesday) we met with students in Santa Clara for a river expedition.  Family members prepared delicious food for us while everyone mingled or swam in the river.  It was nice catching up with students and listening to their stories.

Everyone agrees that Meghan's host grandma, Lydia,
is the coolest lady in all of Santa Clara. Her birthday was
yesterday, and she chose to spend it with us. We surprised her
by singing Happy Birthday.
