Jonathan's birthday!

For Jonathan's birthday (the 28th) we went to Shanghai! We played at an arcade and gave him all our tickets so he could get himself a present! It was a lot of fun. After we went to one of our friends house, she made a cake for Jonathan (last picture) and had her cook, cook:)

                                                                Me and Lydia on the bus!

                                                                 Setting up our Christmas tree

                                                                       Waiting for the train!

                                  My mom decided to get tickets for the train that was a hour! Not only was it a longer train, we didn't have the seats we had to stand up the whole time! So we made a couple friends that had seats, and we sat down with them:) We are sneaky!

                                                                  On the subway!!!

                                                      It is kind of hard to tell, but we are spelling WIRGAU! David is doing the W, Lydia I and A, i am doing the G, Jonathan the A, and Benjamin the U!

                                                     We went and visited the China expo! It was cool!

                                                      Hahah, i don't know what Benjo was doing!

                                    Little Chinese boy got his picture taken, he was pretty happy!

    Like i said before, this is Jonathan's cake! Sense we are from Florida, she made the beach! With the crabs and boats! It was very creative:)

As you can see from all these photo's Thanksgiving was a big hit:) We had a huge feast, and a great time!

                                                                   It was so delicious!

                                           It was a real time for giving thanks, and sharing time with one another!!

Ugly sweater contest;)

Hahah ok this is really random but funny! And i just want to go ahead and say " I am sorry to anyone who thinks these sweaters are cute or has them".  Ok done, so here we go;)

                                             This one wasn't that bad, but when Lydia put it on it looked really funny! When she first saw it showed it to us and told us " This really puts me in the Christmas spirit" And it was really funny!

                                                   REALLY fluffy and kind of weird looking!

                              This was the first one Becca saw and we were laughing so hard!

                                                          It looked like she had a skunk around her neck!

                     I turned around and there is was, sitting on a manecan. I couldn't resist trying it on!!!

                                                               WOW!

                                                              Whats with all the fluffy's today?

                                                      Hahah, Annie! you  made that shirt look kind of cute! But when it was on the hanger, it didn't look that good!


I had a fun day trying on most of the ugly sweaters we found.

KTV!

KTV is a karaoke place in China that is ery popular and a lot of Chinese people go there. We were trying to figure out if in America they had KTV, but we didn't think so. But just imagine it being a little secluded room where you can sing and dance, it is fun! But by the end of it, you feel like you can't talk, because you had just been singing ( and if you are with our group, then you are also yelling) for a couple hours!

                                                     David waiting for the bus!
                               

                                                            Waiting for the bus:)

                                                       Season and Millie waiting for the bus!

                                                   On the bus we found a new Harry Potter!

   these people had sugar cane and they were digging at it! But i got to admit they made it look really good!

                                               Silly Dave! Hahah i love the people in the front!

                                                                On the stage at KTV!

            You can't really see it, but they had all the popcorn, and juices you wanted to drink, for FREE!

                                          This is really random, but on the screen they read the words, and it is a music video, and this music video was kind of funny. and i thought it was cool how you could see the Chinese characters.

                                          The singer was very close to the camera a lot of the time!

                                        And again...waiting for the bus

                            I mixed all the juices and it came out this color, and me being a Wirgau. I put it in my water bottle so i could take some:) But after KTV i don't i ever want juice of popcorn again! Even after a couple hours, i still feel a little sick:( But it was yummy when i was eating it!

50 nails in 1 day:)

 As you can see from this picture Me, Annie, Bethy, Becca, and Lydia, got out nails done in a little store in Aushan (supermarket) Me and Lydia got the same colors but everyone else got really different colors, but they were all very pretty!

                  We got the lady to take a picture of us with all our nails done, and if you do the math (but you don't have to because i am about to tell you) There were a total of 50 nails in 1 day!


Lots of love,

Sweaty days in November! :P

            Usually when i go outside in November, i might get a gust of cold wind/air. Today we were outside, and i was sweating (as you can tell from the title). I like hot weather but sometimes, i just need a little cool air! I can't wait to be able to wear a nice big fluffy jacket, and not be hot! OR be able to wear long-johns to sleep, and be comfortable! And not to turn the air on, but the heat! MMMMM, and best of all, being able to snuggle up to my big daddy while drinking hot coco!
