One of the things that we enjoy about this new culture is how active everyone’s lifestyle is (has to be). You naturally get your walking in each day, but most companies also have morning exercises that they do all together out in front of their business before they open. This is a new business, and […]
After a week of meetings in June we decided to take a week of vaca with friends. It was so nice to rest and enjoy friends! The kids played great together, and just LOVED the beach! Colt caught a bazillion hermit crabs 🙂 Caden and Kylie could have played all day in the sand and […]
Our sweet girly girl turned 3 last month! Thought I better get a little post in before Colt’s birthday (which is right around the corner). We were in Thailand for Kylie and David’s birthdays. . . so it wasn’t really “normal.” I made cupcakes before we left on the trip and she got some special […]

David and I recently had the opportunity to go see Dujiangyan irrigation system – which is a major tourist attraction and an engineering masterpiece! We left the house at 8am, and after riding various forms of transportation we arrived around 10am. Our transportation that day consisted of taxis, public buses, a tourist bus, the underground […]
Yesterday, as we were eating lunch, Colt said he thought he had a loose tooth. His first loose tooth! It was hanging on by a thread by the afternoon because he kept wiggling it. Out it came! Of course, Kylie is just too cute rocking this furry panda hat she found while playing at a […]
