This is me in the country side. one of the girls there told me to follow and look at the strawberries. Y'all know I love strawberries. I picked one and eat it. It was really great. We loved the country side. And have plans to go back.

This a picture of Daniel helping some ladies in the country side make this really good food that we ate. We had so much fun in the country side. Can't wait to go back.

sorry so long no pictures. For some reason I have had trouble get pictures up. These are some friends we met and old friends. The American girl is Elise and she is great. Kasey has really enjoyed her and we have enjoyed all the students who are here.

Getting warmer and warmer

There are some really pretty flowers right outside our door. They smell really good too. So Daniel took some pictures of me.

This is a fun picture of Daniel and two of our goods friends. Harriet the girl had the idea of doing that so Daniel did.

May Day

We went to Labor Park for Labor Day. They had flowers that were beautiful. It was fun and good to get out. The Saturday before we went to the beach with friends and had a picnic. We wonder what Chinese people eat at a picnic and they said whatever. They ate these little sandwich things, vegetables and fruit.

One of the best meals

There is a new western restaurant very close to our house. The food is so good. Yesterday night we went. I got a sandwich with TURKEY and German sausage. Daniel got a hamburger and we split both. IT WAS WONDERFUL!!!!! We just discover it a week ago. It was the best western food we had have here.

Flowers in Bloom!!!

Its getting warm here. We have been playing and studying outside. SO NICE!!!! We think this is a Dogwood or something like it.

NICE SUNNY WARM DAY!!!! It is 64 degrees today and beautiful. So we have been enjoying it. Doing some studying outside and taking pictures. We are so thankful.

playing with our camera

We were playing with your camera and doing different things.

Maybe spring is here!!

Things are started to grow. Today was a lot warmer. YEAH!!!!! This makes us very happy. But we still have to be careful and dress warmd so we don't get sick.

It still feels like it could snow. But it is getting warmer little by little. They say this hasn't been this cold in the spring time in years. Do you think it is because of us? hahaha

So much wind!!!

This is Daniel trying to walk home from buying a few things. The wind gets so strong here. You can hardly walk or it takes you a long time to get from point A to B.  In the summer, it will be good and refreshing.

To show some Chinese Culture

This show some of the Chinese culture. The children don't wear diapers. It is very interesting. Sometimes they wear them if they have the money.

Guess what we found all the way in China? ZARA! I know some people won't understand. But just about every family trip we go on we find Zara. This is in Beijing but they have one or are going to in Dalian. The prices aren't too bad. I didn't anything just looked to see the style. Maybe it is a little different but not much.We take this pictures to show my family. We thought they would like it.
