Our newest family member

Saturday, August 15th at 4:00 pm we met our new family member. Meet Aline Wani from Switzerland. She will stay with us for the full school year. Aline is 15 years old and 1/2 inch taller than Dylan. Yes, he was frustrated.

Her first outing was to Leslie's sisters house. Uncle Chet and Aunt Christy. Their son Chad has a 57 Chevy that he rebuilt from ground up. He is constantly replacing blown engines and just finished the latest and greatest engine at 2:00 am before we arrived. Just in time for Aline to have a ride of her life.

Aline had never seen a 4-wheeler. Chad decided to give her a ride she will never forget. It has as much balls as his car. Riding wheelies and hitting jumps alone with speed was something she had never experienced. When all said and done I asked her if she would do it again she paused and then said yeah, with a huge grin.

Just looking at her face tells you how much fun she had.


Just the first of many good times we plan to have together over the next 10 months. Aline is going to be a fun person to have around. I am glad we decided to try another exchange student.
