Happy 25th Anniversary to my wonderful parents!!!! :-)  I love you so much!!

Nadja and I got ready at her apartment today and then headed back to the farm to help Peter with some work.  When we were almost back to the farm, she said to me, "Now it is your turn to drive."  We switched seats and she gave me lessons on when to push the clutch, gas, and so on all around the farm.  I only drove in a big circle basically, but she is a good teacher and it helped.  She made me do 1st gear the most, which I appreciated because that is what I am the worst at.  Hopefully I remember everything she taught me today.

We raked the grass that had been mowed and talked about the things that we will need for the "American Party" that we are hosting at the restaurant in July.  I am excited!  I have to make flyers for the party and a playlist and make sure that it is legitimately American.  Hopefully I represent well!

After that, I tried to get as many pictures from hiking up as possible.  It took forever!  I was able to get them up though and my daddy thanked me for the wonderful backgrounds for their anniversary.  I was glad that I was able to give them something!

Peter needed help again after that, and I had to drive the tractor while he hammered fencing in.  The tractor is also manually operated.  We had another one of our English/German lessons and I did not do too bad.  The tractor did not stall so I say it was a success haha

Once we were all finished, Peter went for a bike ride, I talked with Andreas a little bit about Sancho, and then got ready to go out for drinks with Cony and Peter.  They took me to two other restaurants and I got to meet a few of their friends.  It was a fun night and I am excited to watch the Tour de Suisse, that ends in Tobel conveniently, tomorrow.

Gute Nacht!
