love us some exercise!

they are so cute trying to exercise with mommy- it is really sweet that they get excited about it and really try but they don't last very long and get easily distracted, i mean what can you expect from a 3 1/2 and 2 year old :) ej is really getting good at some inner thigh squats :) and jo is getting good at his planks :)

our friend's wedding from our perspective :)

josiah shakes hands with the bride during the ceremony :)

they looked so stinkin cute but were not really into posing for mommy

jo with our good friend- it was her brother's wedding

our adventure to the bamboo forest

a few weeks ago we went to the Bamboo Forest with our friend John!

We were pretty excited about being so incredibly close to this giraffe. We had never been so close to one before, it was really cool!

but we both cried getting out picture taken on the fake giraffe...could be that it was our naptime and we didn't get to take it?!

this is mommy after the 300 kungfu panda stairs up and down to one of the many temples...

stuff we do outside of temples of false gods...get our picture taken by mommy, but give her sassy looks, but still look incredibly adorable!

we found some seats to hang on, literally while we sang songs about the One true God!

we Loved the waterfall!!!

this is us with Mommy playing behind the waterfall...there was a path! it was fun !

this is us playing at the bottom....we are a tourist attraction...

we Love John!

Evie Joy took a long nap on MOmmy's back in the Forest...gave Mommy lots of exercise!

we Love noodles for breakfast!

This is how Evie Joy travels on long distance buses...she climbs and falls and yells...

and this is Josiah...he is practicing his Chinese :) He loves this free app I downloaded to study Chinese, it has games and flashcards and he loves it! He is a great traveler :)

Maybe there is hope for EJ!

Whelp! if you made it through all these, you are a trooper. Thought about leaving a few out, but hey, i kept them in so the kids could have them as a memory so no worries if you skipped a few :)

the creative learning side of us!

josiah is learning how to measure- evie joy was a willing participant!

decorating the square with some local kids!
we are super thankful for our friends in America who sent us sidewalk chalk!

And friends who sent us washable paints! Look at our beautiful drawings!
We are Artists!

i'm pretty sure this is some kind of new dance move?! :)
