Where does the time go?

I have to start off by apologizing for my lack of blogging since I returned home to China. Things have just begun to calm down...who knew???
The day I returned from the US (January 21st), Andre started his Chinese New Year vacation. He was off work from the January 22nd until he returned on February 2nd. He was off for over a week and we had a LOVELY vacation. **See future Chinese New Year post for more details.**
The day he returned to work, we found out that his Grandpa had suffered a stroke and was at the hospital in the ICU. We stayed posted to our computers and phones, only to learn late that night that he had passed away. We spent Tuesday morning making travel plans, and left to head back to the US on Thursday morning. We arrived in Michigan on Friday morning and spent the weekend with family...celebrating the life of Fred Law. He was a GREAT guy! We left Michigan on Tuesday morning, and arrived back in China on Wednesday evening, February 11th.
Now, here I sit...5 days later, finally feeling like I have recovered and that my body is rested. Hopefully, things have returned to normal and we can begin to enjoy life in China again! :)


RIP Grandpa Fred...we love you!!
