The one you've waited for...

...Okay, maybe you weren't really holding your breath, but here's the long awaited BLOG update. Sheesh. I tell you what, getting internet connection these days is just hard to come by! Our lovely house is still not equipped with the wonderfully fast broadband. I mean it's here….just having signal issues to the office where the computer is. Needless to say I have tried to blog like 10 times in the past week and usually become annoyed when after logging in and waiting for the “create post” page to load it’s been 10 minutes. THIS IS A WORLD WHERE WE NEED THINGS NOW!!!! (No actually..... YESTERDAY!!!!!!)

Here’s some updates on our world (Here’s Rogers WORLD in a minute)

BRIANNA

Yes my BABY has turned two. I cannot believe it. Where did those two years go?




She is such a little light. She is SO still the “Goodge”. I have to tell you this (though I have reservations!) that she is at the 100th PERCENTILE for height and weight. Okay, she's off the charts for a two year old. AWESOME she'll be 6 feet of gorgeous blonde curls & blue eyes. Sweeeeeet. Here she is with her adored sisters. "Berday, berday, berday" Is what she shouted all day long.

DISNEY

Our beautiful friend Jen treated us to Disneyland last week. We had the most amazing day. Though it was hotter than hades out there. The girls were in heaven.

SCHOOL

Jasmine & Annabelle have (finally) started school. I say finally because they've been begging me for 3 weeks to go!!!!

My little K1 student may only be 3 1/2 but she's ready for the world. She couldn't WAIT to be there. While other parents were "hanging around" for the week to "ease" their cherubs into the routine, my little angel says to me "You go now, I go to 'cool my telf"

My first born is now in the equivalent of 1st grade! Her K3 class has 12 students and a lovely Aussie teacher named Meg - who I can already see Jasmine will adore. It's going to be a great year.
(OK I have to be honest this is not a photo from the last 7 days!!! I am too lazy to upload them from my camera so I used an old one from May!!!!)

CHURCH

HUGE event this week. Our church is opening a new service time & place. May not seem that big to most, but it's huge for my little home town/community. Disocvery Bay will now have a Friday Night-TOO-awesome-for-words-church-service. So many volunteers have worked long hours and sweat buckets to get this thing off the ground. http://www.thevine.org.hk/grapevine/pages/article1.html

It all happens on Friday night....
If you are in Hong Kong...
BE THERE OR BE QUADRILATERAL. (get a dictionary).

ME!

Okay, silly but I did think I should tell you how I am doing, since it's MY blog. In two words....

Fantastically Blessed!

And WHY did I include this picture? Because doesn't it look delicious? How do I get a picture to convey the above statement...I don't. So I thought I'd present a colorful tasty looking table setting - a meal ready for consumption. That's my life! It's all there for the taking :) Oh and by the way - that's not MY plate, it's the serving plate! It kind of looks like my personal plate at the table! And YES I absolutely made this roast dinner and in a word...it was DELISH.

Alright, this was probably one of my longer blogs, but hopefully you're not sleeping because I've included pictures and centered-bolded-colored (or coloured) text to keep your eyes from wandering to the back of your head.

LOVE YA!!!!!!!
