Bangkok | Days 1,2

Thought I'd post a few videos and photos while I'm here in Asia. I went running this morning at Lumphini Park, the "Central Park" of Bangkok, and there were all kinds of interesting things going on. I came across a 6 ft long monitor lizard and some old ladies wielding some serious swords ... I kept my distance from both. I'll try and keep on taking pictures/video as often as I can. And I'll skip pics of our work and meetings ... boooring!

The 87 year-old in yellow was giving me the evil eye ... I'm just happy to be alive.

Although Bangkok is becoming more and more modern and hip ... some places are still ... not quite there.

Random photo I saw on a cubicle ... now THOSE are cheeks!

7 floors of nothing but electronics ... a geek's paradise.

And who would've guessed it would be full of monks buying electronics?

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Happy Thanksgiving!!
The photos this week are a lot of fun. The last two are actually video's of Ruby and Olivia singing (something they do ALL the time!), so don't forget to click on them.
Earlier this week we went to the art museum at USU and had a great time talking about all of the different pieces of art, and different kinds of art, etc. When we got home, the girls were inspired to go and paint on the canvas that they started last year. They had such a good time painting to music, mixing colors, and being creative.
Sonoma learned how to sit up! So, she's been very entertained just sitting on the ground with a few toys in front of her. She also got to take a bath with the older girls and LOVED it.
We decided to decorate for Christmas early this year so that Adam could be a part of it all. He is leaving the day after Thanksgiving for a couple of weeks. He and Wade will go to Asia for Advent Creative. We miss Adam already!
We are so grateful for all of our family and friends! We are so blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful people (near and far) in our lives.

A few photos of the week

Sonoma and her cousin Beckham.

Example of a meal our kids eat (whole foods; they love it all) ... since people ask us quite often.

 Homemade chocolate ice cream (honey sweetened)

That thing was bigger than my head!

Making a batch of homemade gnocchi ... molto buono!

The girls got a hold of a marker ... Holly told them to brush their teeth and this was the result.

The first snow of fall 2010.
