Our Friday and Saturday

New Best Friends

There is a (mainland) Chinese family that lives next to us. Their little boy LOVES to come over to play. Too bad we speak no Mandarin and he speaks no English. Ana and him love to ride bikes, kick balls, run, scream, and play with blocks. Although he will probably go into a local kindergarten in January, Ana is enjoying playing with him for now!

School Pictures!

The pictures came back from the photographer. When you get yours in December, they should be something like this--only less grainy of course!

Our Non Traditional Thanksgiving!

The Flower Girl

This is what they looked like most of the time! TOTAL BLURS!

THE HAIR

So Friday was the big staff wedding. The art teacher married the administrative assistant. The administrative assistant's dad is a pastor, so it was a BIG wedding. Luckily Ana didn't seem disturbed by this (even though all the people were clapping for her as she came in--it's Singaporean!). She happily spread all her petals all over the isle. I made sure she got a good nap, cleaned her up, and did her hair--that took a good long while! The ceremony started late mainly because lots of people came in late which meant that the two young children were waiting around for quite a while.

I hope to get some more photos from the actual photographers and post them soon.

Put That Lawn Mower to Good Use

Don't know what to do with your kids on a beautiful day? Pull 'em around the farm for 1/2 hour or so. Not much effort required!

Every time we have to go to the embassy we head over to the Botannical Gardens afterwards to blow off some steam.

Every time Ana gets a leaf "umbrella." You should see all the people passing by laughing!

We put Uncle Michael's bubbles to good use!!
