Chinese Christmas


Well Christmas is around the corner and I can say this is one that I will Never forget.
It doesn't seem like the season is here. Without friends and family it just doesn't feel the same. I definitely miss home. I miss the things that are familiar during this time. I miss the decorations and hustle and bustle of the season. Some stores here put up decorations but it's a sad attempt.

The school was kind enough to give us a break from teaching Christmas day, but they wouldn't give us Christmas Eve. It's kinda sad, but I can understand. This is definitely the coldest Christmas I have ever had. It's about 40 degrees every day and slowly dropping in temperature.

I am staying busy this season. Stew and I are playing Christmas songs at multiple parties. We will play 5 times in 4 days. Everyone wants us to play for them. We don't mind at all, and it's fun to help people out. We will play at Aloha's and Mr. Mai's and a couple other places.

Christmas day we are going over to an Australian families house in the morning and exchanging presents and having breakfast...and in the afternoon we are going to a German families house. I am very excited to celebrate with different foreigners and Countries.

I am going on some different trips soon which I will tell you more about later. I just wanted to give you a quick update. Love you all.

Hey Taylor, I like the pics of you guys making your gingerbread houses, actually they looked like cracker houses. I think it's great that you're playing at all the different Christmas events. I'm sure you're blessing many people. You're a huge blessing to Adam and me too! Merry Christmas!! ~Becca
