I got a new baseball mitt. It was a rip off. It was 130 and I got a baseball. My dad wanted it for 20. The lady said no then. My dad said how about 25. The lady said no. Then my dad said 30. The lady said yes.
Happy Birthday Adrian!!
We have had so much fun being in China with you and Kate! We love you both, and we will miss you next year. Love, Gigi and Vincent, Kevin and Annie
Recipe: Bucatini all’Amatriciana
Last night I decided to make pasta for the fam–this is something I rarely do since I don’t eat pasta all that much, but every now and then it’s good to make an exception. First, I left school promptly at 3:45. Now that the sun is out, this dismissal time is such a treat. OnceContinue reading Recipe: Bucatini all’Amatriciana

It is sooooo awesome having family in Asia. LOOK!
The Bello’s in Bali
We had a great time meeting up with our dear friends Mary Kelly and Giovanni Bello in Bali. We stayed in a little villa in a town called Seminyak. Unfortunately the Krembs’ didn’t get much sun time since they burned themselves on the very first day! Dumb! We should definitely know better. We enjoyed theContinue reading The Bello’s in Bali

The wedding festivities were beautiful, sharing a condo with the Collins’ was a breeze, the weather was glorious all week long, andContinue reading Howzit!
Vincet Won the Dragon Award
The first week back to school after winter break, and Vincent received the Dragon Award today! He’s so proud. He received it for having a great “can do” attitude and being a great helper in the classroom.
Lil’ Christmas Dinner Party with Friends
On Sunday Jane, Phil, Debbie, and Poppy joined us for the evening. It had been a while since we’d seen our Ven friends. Life gets so busy all of a sudden. It was great fun to catch up with them.
Winter Formal in Beijing
We had a very fun time on Saturday night. ISB hosted its winter party at the Intercontinental down at the Olympic Park. We were quite late–getting ready and then getting lost! But once we arrived the party was in full swing. Now, then next two shots are a bit goofy, but then again all partiesContinue reading Winter Formal in Beijing
Decorating the Tree 09
Last Saturday morning, November 28, we woke up and decorated the tree. I had asked if Sally and Cork would prefer if we did this task before they got there, but luckily they wanted to join in the fun. Part of decorating the tree requires wearing a special hat!
