6 Months in REVIEW

Yah, I'm just not good at this computer thing... there are too many other things shouting for my time... besides 3 amazing kids, an amazing husband... I have lots of church events that I serve at along with my enormous social calendar!!! So, sorry for the blog-less life!!!

Highlights...
June -
Jasmine graduates from DMK - P1 (or 1st grade)



Summer -
Actually this was the first summer in the ROGERS IN HK history that we haven't gone back to the USA. The flights were so full all summer that we couldn't go. My parents stayed for almost 3 weeks which was so great. We really enjoyed just hanging out - and believe it or not HK was CLEAR & GORGEOUS all summer.

Believe it or not these two photos were taken from OUR living room window :)





Of course we visited Disney & spent a night there at the Hollywood hotel... awesome!!!


Check out the view from our room - on the clearest day I've ever seen!!!


AUGUST --

Was a momentous occasion... JASMINE GOES TO REAL PRIMARY SCHOOL! It was a big change. She went from a 4 hour day to an 8 hour day! She's a champion. She had to skip P2 and went straight to P3 because of her age (they go on age here in Hong kong, and don't really care whether you've completed the previous years!!! strange but true.) She's LOVING school.



SEPTEMBER --

Another momentous occaions... BRIANNA GOES TO SCHOOL (and turns 3) all in the same month. She cracked us up... she just had no fear whatsoever. I think she thinks she owns the place! She just hopped on that bus the first day and turned back with a smile & a wave!!!!! Yikes, how did that happen so fast?




****ANOTHER HUMONGOUS EVENT....*****
Aaron became a captain for Cathay... This is an old picture, but I think it's cool anyways...


In September we took a MUCH NEEDED family holiday. We went to Singapore for 5 days. It was so great - the zoo, night safari, dolphin swimming and relaxing by the pool made for a perfect trip.


OCTOBER -
Jasmine was in her first assembly at her shcool. She had to memorize some lines & dress in a toga! it wa SO great.



Brianna came down with a HORRIBLE illness this month. It was quite scary. I don't think we've ever seen any of our kids that sick... here's a picture of her feet - her whole body was consumed with a horrid rash that was hot & itchy and blotchy. Poor girl, looked like she had leprosy. Thank goodness she came out of it fine after 4 days!




We went to Disneyland with some great friends - check us out - we have so many kids between us - it's crazy!!!!



Well, that takes us to now... so it's been a full few months. Of course these were just SOME of the highlights. I'm sure I've forgotten something important :)

Thanks for reading an update on the Rogers family!
