Trying to be patient

We are so excited for next week. My mom ( Grandma Eggs) , John (Grandpa silly guys) and Uncle Chris will be here. We will spend 4 days in Dalian and then we will be off to see Xian and Beijing. It will be so much fun. People keep asking what are you most excited to do. I am excited to just give them hugs. The boys are excited to show them around. It should be an amazing time.

This week Matthew amazed us. He was asked to be the Mystery Reader for a 5th grade class. He sent clues to Megan to show her students. Clue 1 I want to be a zoologist when I get older. Clue 2 I like to read the Magic tree house books. Clue 3 I am a student at DAIS. Clue 4 My favorite game is Wii Mario cart. Clue 5 I have one brother and one adopted sister. The students then had to guess who he was. Then Matthew got to a read a story to the class. He was so excited it was really cute. He did an amazing job. One of the students said that he was impressed that a first grader would be willing to read to the fifth graders. Matthew just smiled.

Last weekend we went into Dalian and learned how to make Sushi. It was a lot of fun. The boys loved to help and there were cameras everywhere. ( YES, taking pictures of the expats) It was another fun adventure.

Doug and I spent today cooking. :) We made muffins, homemade tortillas, meals for the week and cookies. Tomorrow is Doug's 4oth and we are going out with friends tonight to celebrate.

new pictures to come soon
