summer vacation

I went to America in order to participate in a home stay program in Minnesota. This was my first time to go to foreign country, so I was very nervous at first, but when I met my host family, I was very happy.
My host father is Bob. He is very kind and makes his wife or me fun. My host mother is Rie. She is Japanese but she didn't speak Japanese for me. She is also kind and funny, too. I think they were very busy, especially Bob has three jobs, but they spent a lot of time with me. I was enjoyed playing some American games, having meals, or go out many places. I really appreciate them.
The most impressive day is my birthday, August 15. I ate out with Bob, Rie, and Bob's parents. We went a restaurant and had a good time. I told a waiter, 'Today is my birthday!' Then he said 'Congratulations! We'll bring a big chocolate cake for you.' I was surprised. What a great waiter! He brought the cake and took another waiter. Another waiter sang Happy Birthday for me. I was very happy. When we got back home, I was surprised again. Bob, Rie, and Bob's parents prepared a birthday cake and ice cream for me secretly. We took some pictures with the cake and we had a good time. This is the most memorable day for me.
