since we've been home, we've been to a ton of place. we're putting miles on my parents mini-van, cuz they don't. here's some highlight so far of our time in america.
sam learned to waterski - this is more of a highlight for her dad.

we went to disney world.

we've carved some pumpkins (my is the one of the right).
we also went to the state fair last weekend and it was quite the experience. i love people watching in china, but the fair is way better. it's like i was in another country. ahh the fair, full of awesomeness!
