This is the Day

This is the Day the Lord has made - in Chinese.

Snowman!

Tianjin had a big snow the past few days (which thankfully I missed because I was down in southern China), but Daddy took the children out to build a snowman (which thankfully I got to see in person the day I got back in town).


I love the rocks for feet.

Who's cuter? Snowman or Hayden?

Outside

While we were in Taiwan/Hong Kong, it was lovely to be able to have the kids play outside without winter coats/gloves/scarves/hats.

Jesus Reigns

When I substitute taught Lizzy's class, I had them sing this song for me just because I love it so much!

Jesus reigns!
I will praise Him.
I'll join the thunder
and tell of the wonder
that Jesus reigns, oh,
Jesus REIGNS!

Hayden Transforming

Hayden's recent favorite activity is to transform.

"I'm going to transform into a robot."

Movie Night!

The best part about staying at a nice hotel is spending time in the hotel room. Because we were all staying in one room, the kids got to stay up late and go to bed at the same time as Mom and Dad (very special for them!) One night, we stayed up watching Wall-E - so cute!

Blue Zoo

We took the children to the Blue Zoo in Beijing. It's an aquarium with a long underwater tunnel. They were very excited and we had a lot of fun.

Nemo!

The kids (and Daddy) were very excited about the neon light that made anything white glow...

Sea Turtles!

Sharks!
