Girls rooms, etc...

The first two rooms of our new home are finished. I'm already tired of all the white - walls, floors, and ceilings! Joanah's room is super tiny with only bunk beds and a bookshelf storage unit. But, she loves her Chinatown dragon and her lion head. Jae's room is pretty tight also with her bed and only a small dresser. She picked some lanterns in Chinatown and we worked on DIY garland to go over her bed. 

The next photo is of a Singapore "to-go" drink. It's a clear bag w/a handle, drink of choice, and a straw.

The last two pics are of Jae at school. The first is a visiting artist and the second is her a capella group performing at a Friday lunch concert.

Phuket, Thailand

We had an amazing fall break in Phuket, Thailand. Two days were spent being lazy around the resort pool and on the beach.  We took a day long boat tour to the Phi Phi islands. The day began with Joanah vomiting in the resort van, but definitely became the best day of our trip soon after. We stopped to feed the fish out of our hands, did a lot of snorkeling, enjoyed the amazing views, made a stop at monkey island, and ended the day at "The Beach" from Leonardo Dicapprio's movie.  Another of our highlights was going on the Siam Safari Elephant Trek.  After a 30 minute ride through the "jungle", we were able to feed the elephants too.  We came home with amazing memories and some fun souvenirs too.
