Greys trip to the "Kaboda" (pagoda)











Grey was giving the Buddha lucky money










"I am thankful for my scooter"
im sure Buddha loved that one!
























This was a field trip set up by the school. We traveled about 1 mile to this Pagoda. Grey calls it the Kaboda and can not change it even we correct him. The kids had a great time learning all about the Buddhist and how they pray. I think they enjoyed feeding the fish and turtles after the tour the best!

The Shack

If you have not read this book already I highly rec. that you go out today and get a copy of it. I have had a lot of spare time and have been reading a new book every week....or every 3-4 days it seems!!! But this book has really touched me and I got a good cry out of it as well. The book is about God and I will leave it at that. I also want to thank one of my very best friends for telling me that I HAD to get the book before I left the states...Thank you Ashley!!!!!

My friend Liz decided it was time for her to get a bike to ride around HCMC.
She came over to show off and to take me for a ride
We went around the compound and giggled way too much and came back to the house and found Danny outside with the camera. I guess he thought we looked just as funny as it was! Maybe I will get brave and drive the one we have.....or maybe not!!!

Pics of Grey and Braxton acting very silly Christmas night. (maybe all of the sugar they had during the day)










I think Stella (my brothers dog) had just as much as everyone else!











All of the kids on Danny's side of the family. Mine are #10 and #11















Christmas day at Aunt Anne's house. We had a great time playing Guitar Hero. I wish I would have had room in my suitcase to bring the game back with me! Maybe next time....or maybe one will just appear in Vietnam....hint hint....
