Dave&Molly's International Connection

Dave&Molly's International Connection

Saad, our Saudi Arabian student friend, came for dinner last Monday, 14 August. We had lamb--his favorite. We also played scrabble to work on his English. It was a fruitful time.

More From the Animal Room

Dave&Molly's International Connection
As you can see from the pictures, Lana and Molly have been hard at work adding to the animal pictures in the basement. Also, Lana's best friend from Vietnam arrives tomorrow for the year with us. Having the two girls, who will be seniors at Toledo Christian, will be so much fun.

Molly and Lana at Work

Molly and Lana have been hard at work in the basement toy room for the grandkids. They projected animal images on the wall, drew lines in pencil, and then painted in the animals. The first grandkids to see this will be Jeff and Brooke's this Thursday, 3 Aug. (Jonathan, Katherine, David, and Grace). We are looking forward to grandparenting again and have some things planned.

Working with Saad

Saad is from Saudi Arabia and is at the University of Toledo. He is polishing his English so he can begin classes in electrical engineering, hopefully next spring 2007. Every week or so he and Dave meet to talk about English words that Saad has questions about. He is working on vocabulary and some pronunciation. Saad is lots of fun and Dave and he have a great time. Today they started a blog for Saad like this one, worked on vocab. and played pingpong.
