Our First Visitors

Tom's parents arrived yesterday. We are very happy to have them here. Today we started slowly. In the morning we walked the boys to the bus and Tom's parents were surprised to see the hundreds of kids and their bikes flocking to the gates of our compound. We went to a bakery to order a spongebob cake for Jed's birthday party but left quickly when we were told the small cake cost 450 kuai. ($56.50)

Next, we went to Jack and Jed's school to watch Jack in his skit about soil which he performed for Jed's class.

After lunch we visited the tailor. Tom's parents really enjoyed seeing how it works. After seeing a great pair of jeans I had made, Mom decided she must have a pair as well! We can go back in two days to get them.

It was a great first day.
