So my daughters birthday was on `11/21. And we just had thanksgiving.
Rae's birthday was a smash success. According to her, it was "my bestestest birthday ever, daddy!!" We had 6 other children here (2 from the flat, and 4 foreign chinese children we are getting to know) and about 40 adults ranging in age from 19 to 70. Rae made out like a bandit.
She had a huge pink heart shaped cake, no ice cream and about 70 presents. So we ate cake, we played games including bowling and twister, and rae opened presents. She said thank you to each person, and really loved all the presents. The ending was being allowed to play the game Spyro for the xbox in the conference room. The conference room has an overhead projector that will project digital images to the wall. So she got to play spyro on the wall and spyro was 3' tall. The kids and adults had fun.
Thanksgiving was fun, but different than usual. I taught my class that thursday morning. Not that I wanted to, but because if I cancelled it I would ahve to schedule a make up on the weekend. ick ack barf. So I went ot class. We had brunch, and then played some touch football. In 5 degree C. Lots of cold fingers, but all around fun. WE even had the chinese students on the track as cheer leaders. Then time for dinner. boy do the chinese love their speaches. We get to the resturant, and the chinese delegation talks for 30 minutes before we can get our food. Oh well.
anyways, gotta run. Love to all.
Will
