Winter Concert

On Wednesday night my students performed in the Winter Concert. They were great, I was so proud of them! The whole elementary school performed. One of the songs my class did was a Chinese minority song, three of my girls learned a traditional Chinese fan dance. The girls were so cute in their costumes. I loved how one was Malaysian, Korean, and Chinese, so diverse like our school. Here are a couple of pictures from the night.

It's Beginning to look a lot like...


Christmas, well not quite here in China. Kara and I were laughing and had to take a picture by this sign because it is the only one we have seen in English. They decorate for Christmas here, but it's nothing compared to the States. I am definitely starting to get in the Christmas spirit but mainly because of the anticipation to see these people...

(missing the Lil Scotts)
I can't wait to meet this little guy...

and love on him

Not to mention these amazing people...



Man 2 weeks can't come fast enough...

Ponyo

We don't drive anywhere here...through all our outings we have become pretty tight with our favorite driver, Jung Yao Lee. He's our ponyo (friend) and you are guaranteed a fun ride with him. After I took these he asked me to email them to him...I think he's going to frame them. :)


Can you feel the connection?! lol


By the way I got my coat made here for not even $30. Sorry I had to brag!

Dining out...

Dining out in China is interesting, you never know what you are going to get...for instance last night John order a double cheeseburger...what did he get?

A double CHEESE burger...it was an honest mistake :)

Say what?


For some strange reason I didn't order this.
