Pigs feet

Happy New Year!! I can't believe it's 2011! So for the new year the house cleaner lady invited us to her house to celebrate. There were nine people in total. When we first got there we sat and talked for a little bit and then we ate later. Honestly, I could only understand about 6 words. So it was about 8:45 when we finally started eating. The first course was little appetizers, like cheese and olives. In total there were about eight courses. Including pigs feet. Not joking. When they told us I could barely even look at it. And lucky for me, even if they hadn't told us it was pigs feet, I was way to full anyway. We also had gelato for dessert! And then the lady saw my dad eating some of my giant dessert (even though i asked for only a little bit) and she made another giant ice cream for my dad. After we finished eating which took FOUR HOURS, it was almost the new year so we all sat down and watched Italian TV. The lady had two dogs and one of them just had a puppy 10 days earlier so she brought it in and I got to hold it! After it was officially the new year we drank some champagne (including me, I had even drunk some wine earlier). After about 15 minutes, we were all getting very tired so we went home and went to bed, and all I was really thinking about was the fact that it was only 3:00 pm at home.....

-And next Sunday my dad is going to preach at this church we went to yesterday.. that is going to interesting.
-I'll take some pics of my new shirt for the next blog!
