A ayi and Lizzy

A ayi bought Lizzy and Hayden lots of new clothes. One particular dress she liked so much she bought one for herself.

fun at the playground

A ayi took us out for smoothies (not pictured, they were mango flavored, and cookie and cream)

A ayi

A ayi came to visit the kids for a few days in Tianjin. We did lots of stuff together, but mostly just relaxed and enjoyed having her around. Lizzy had a hard time letting go of the fact that she's staying only for 3 days and not 5 days, but in the end, she had a good time with her.





We miss you A ayi!

Bowling fun

I took Lizzy along with me when we went bowling with a bunch of other girls. 3 out of 20 turns she knocked down some pins to end up with a grand total of 17!! yay Lizzy! The other 17 times her ball fell into the gutter but she just turned around and said, "it was a nice try". I don't know if I'm more proud of her for getting a score of 17 or for being such a good sport about landing in the gutter 17 times.

Long time no see

Sorry I haven't blogged in so long. Here are some pics to satisfy blog fans.

Closest Friends

Some of Lizzy's good friends from school, Maya and Rose.

All decked out

in the armor of God.

Lizzy has been learning the armor of God at school, and each week they made a different piece of the armor. Today, they invited us to a special even called "Celebration of Learning" which was a chance for the parents to come see what the kids have been learning this year. Here are the kids wearing their armors of God and singing the song.


I love the way the sword of the Spirit is placed...

my little soldier for the Lord!
