Boulder Field



  This is a picture from a boulder field that we went to a few months ago.  It was created from either an earthquake or an ice slide.  It had huge boulders,some the size of a house.  It blocked a stream and seamed to create a dam.
We are trying to get use to the darkness here.  It stays dark till about 8 am and starts getting dark at about 4:30.  It will get worse as we get into December.  
The girls had another gymnastic competition and they did well.  We don't really know scores, but they seem to be doing things well.  AY is working on back tuck and ariel on beam.  AN is perfecting her back tuck on floor.  We are just hoping that they keep their skills up and continue to get new ones.
T is doing well I school and has joined the photography club.  I think we might try and print some of her pictures and sell them.
N is doing good in school, but having to do some adjusting to taking test in a set amount of time.  So for all of you homeschoolers who have kids who will go to college, set a time limit for test.  
We will not be celebrating thanksgiving till Saturday due to it not being a holiday here.  There are a lot of Americans with the oil industry and one company is letting the church we attend use their facility to hold a dinner on Saturday.  It is weird not getting American holidays, but you get the holidays of the country you are in.  I hope you all have a wonderful thanksgiving with family and friends.
