Pizza Party

Last week we ended up having some of Dimitri's classmates over for dinner. Giovanni is one of Dimitri's friends from class. He is Chinese, but was raised in Italy. Giovanni's friend Mattia cane over to visit from Italy and is staying until Sept 1 so we decided to have an Italian dinner. We also invited Rob (Dimitri's friend from Slovakia), Susan (his friend from China), and Lisa (Giovanni's GF who is from Michigan).

Before we had the dinner, we took Giovanni, Mattia, and Rob with us to Costco to get some supplies. Both of the Costco's we've been to in Michigan are about twice as big as the one in Spokane.

The day of our dinner Mattia ended up getting sick, so he didn't come :( Giovanni said they were planning on making some pasta dish, but only Mattia knew how to make it so we didn't have it.

(Giovanni, Susan, and Rob. Lisa hadn't arrived yet)

 

We didn't have enough chairs for everyone so Rob sat in our pink chair and Dimitri sat on our step ladder.

Susan brought some food too. She made shrimp with corn and beef with onion and tomatoes. The dish on the top Giovanni made, it is fresh mozarella, roma tomatoes, and oregano.

Dimitri also made two pizza's.

In other news, Dimitri is FINALLY done with his summer boot camp!!!!! This week we are just relaxing and finding our classes and going to orientations. Starting on Wed UM's welcome week starts and they have free events for the students.
