The Holidays

Here's Thanksgiving.  Yes, it was a bit different, but fun.  We were unable to have a turkey, so we went to a local American-type restaurant (called We Like) and bought little chickens already cooked.  Not quite as delicious as homemade turkey, but it sufficed.  Kylie and Spencer made delicious carrots, stuffing, and a salad and Chase and I made mashed potatoes and gravy and bread.  For dessert we had chocolate pudding.  No pumpkin pie, which was really sad, but we were still so grateful for everything we have, and especially to be together in China.

And here's Chase's birthday.  For dinner we went to the always delicious Pizza Hut.  Yeah, we splurged.  Then we came back to our apartment and had cake.  The delicious and beautiful cake was provided by our boss, Colin.  He also presented Chase with some beautiful flowers, which I really enjoyed.  We sang "Happy Birthday" to Chase (thanks for the candles, Mom!) and then partook of the tasty cake, minus the fruits (including tomatoes) which were on top.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHASEY!
