We have had a Japanese exchange student staying with us for two weeks.  Her name is Yurie Otsu she is 16 years old.  She is fluent in English and has been going to school with Karlee.  She has been so much fun, I wish she could stay longer than two weeks.  She is from Toyoko, they had some damage from an earth quake to their home but everyone is OK..  She has been teaching us some Japanese and tomorrow she is going to cook for us!

Karlee had her tumbling competition last Saturday and took 3rd!  We are sooo proud of her, she did her back tuck and landed it perfectly!
