Home!!!

My sister (Beth) and her daughter (Tinley) waiting for us at the airport.
Coming off the plane! Back on U.S. soil.

Okay we've been home for a couple days now and it is really cold here. We noticed a few cultural differences; like grass (it's so green and everywhere) the different sizes of people, how they drive on the other side of the road, everyone seems to be following "the rules" and how their are even rules to begin with. We have hit the ground running and kept ourselves busy with appointments, visiting people, Rosalie's wedding, getting jobs, playing on a soccer team and getting settled back in with welcome parties and Ban San Faan meetings. Here are a couple pictures of us getting back into the US. Our first meal was at Red Robin!
This is us at a welcome home party in our "Thai" clothes.

Awards Assembly


Here are some more pictures of us finishing up our time in Thailand. We handed out awards and watched performances and then saw a really nice slide show that Joel made. Here are the pictures.....

Final day of school



Here are some pictures from the last day of school.

This is a picture of Joel and I after morning exercise with all the kids.

Here we are starting the end of the year award and performance assembly. The kids got dressed up in their school uniforms and did some dances, received awards and got recognized for all the hard work they put in this year. We had a banner, some nice plants and decorations and a microphone. It was a very nice ceremony.

Thai performance


Malee and Brian took us to the "Kun Kantoke" for dinner and a Thai show. We saw all kinds of traditional costumes and performances and heard some typical Thai music. We ate a table on the ground and hung our feet into the hole under the table. It was a great going away dinner. Thanks Malee and Brian!
