Its Plum Rainy season here

That means 8 days of rain, high humidity and lots of interesting smells coming from everywhere.   We are still working on finishing up school(maybe 4 more weeks!!) and then moving across town end of June.  The days are fast and the weeks are faster.  Life is very full, and I'm thankful!

Here's a few pics to update you on our happenings around here. . .


Lawrence turned 9 on Dec 11.  Mark decorated the cake!

He chose laser tag as his birthday party!

ER visit for Emma, she busted her chin outside on a step.  Pretty expensive super glue

She chose a "Can you Get Out" room , but was a bit dispointed as we couldn't get out. . . it was all in Chinese!!

Back home for our annual Chinese New Year with out friends parents

Annual Spring Day celebrations

Our first ever April fools joke on the kids.  We told them that shots are good for them, and that they would protect them from diseases.  They all thought they were going to the doctors and we took them to McDonalds for breakfast!!  Caro is really worried.

Judson turns 7 March 29!!!


He wanted Strawberry Shortcake for his dessert

And laser tag for his party

Off to get our teeth cleaned, and Lawrence needed an xray 

And then, there was that time that Mark went to play baseketball against his wifes better judgement and tore his Achilles.  
I'm sorry, I just had to post this picture.  He's finally walking again, without crutches, almost 2 months later!!

Mom and Dad came for a visit and Dad rode the bike while I did my long Sat. runs!
