here comes 2008

Monday, December 31st, 2007

Well, 2007 certainly ended on a “big” note with an international move. I can’t even imagine what 2008 will hold, but I am excited to find out. There are many changes ahead for our family, and I’m sure it will be quite an adventure. Hang on for a wild ride….
Happy New Year […]

Christmas party in what feels like summer weather to us “Mainahs”

Wednesday, December 19th, 2007

This morning was the yearly Christmas party for my Mom’s group. I’ve been looking forward to it, and have been trying to get the kids excited too (make that R!) I got all my gifts purchased for the gift exchange, which was no small feat. The limit was $20HKD. That only […]

Saturday, December 15th, 2007

Everyone in HKG […]

Our things arrived Wednesday morning, and our days have been a blur of unpacking since then.  I was prepared for boxes everywhere, with only paths between rooms, but it wasn’t as bad as I anticipated.  It is still overwhelming, but it looks better each day.  We’ll be settled by Christmas.  Yay!

our Sunday

Monday, December 3rd, 2007

So much happens in one day around here that you can’t possibly post it all. I’d be here all night. I will try to hit some highlights for you all so the hate mail will stop.
We started our day at the bus stop, trying to catch a bus to church. […]

it’s all about the delivery
