Our Crazy (And Of Course Cute) Jenna


Bowling With Dad

For a night out, the girls and I went bowling. Lots of fun eating pizza and bowling. We had lots of fun and even got a few strikes.


Some Emily Adventures

Emily has been very busy lately. So here are just a couple of highlights from her life recently.

Her homemade shirt for the 100th day of school celebration.





Emily at a baking birthday party. The chocolate cookies she made were really good (I think dad ate most of them).

Chinese New Year

Our first big Asian holiday was Chinese New Year in early February.  This is most like U.S. Thanksgiving, where stores close, and people (Chinese primarily) head to spend time with family.  Unlike the U.S., this is a week long holiday ... and I'm pretty sure its not turkey and mashed potatoes.  But anyway - here are just a few pictures that we captured during many of celebrations for Chinese New Year, the year of the Snake.

















The three girls watching as the Chinese Lion walks around the pool.

Gardens By The Bay - At Night

As night fall set in, the lights of Singapore came on. A beautiful view of the Marina Bay Sands, and the Gardens by the Bay Super Trees.




Walking high above in the Super Trees.

Gardens By The Bay With Grandma

One of the many places we took grandma during her visit was Gardens By The Bay. It was a beautiful January night in Singapore, which for us, meant not too much humidity, a nice breeze, and no rain.

The very cool Super Trees

Beautiful flowers, but can you spot the fake?

High Tea At Raffles Hotel

For Anna's birthday, the ladies decided to go for an outing to the historic Raffles Hotel for high tea. The ladies dressed up and had a wonderful time ... Just perfect for four fancy ladies.
