Just some photos from Thanksgiving through New Years. These last few months have flown by. Craig and I are both doing great and are missing home and the sun a lot right now!
It won't be long before we leave for the holiday here called Spring Festival. It is treated much like Christmas for the culture and there will be no class for about 6 weeks and all the students will go home. During this time, we'll be vising THAILAND and possibly MALAYSIA to chase some much-needed sunshine! This adventure the Lord has us on is like a dream. It's tough but rewarding!
We'll post some photos about this next adventure soon.
Have grown up loving snow and cold but this 40 degrees is the coldest we've ever been. |
