School Fun 1st grade

I don't know why the picture is flipped......

Monterey Bay

T's class went on a feild trip. I volunteered as a chaperone because the thought of her going that far away by herself with her class wooried me a bit She is only in first grade. Monterey is 4 hours one way for us. The trip turned out soomthly. There was a part of the trip where they particpated in a lab on the site since they were part of a school. It was given in spanish. It was fun to see my girl participate in spanish.

Celebrated the New Year Chinese

Three months into the year and I am still trying to catch up. My parents were down and we celebrated Chinese style. We had hats and robes, food from the Hong Kong, and ended the night watching a fascinating show on Netflix about a Chinese dancer who came to the states to dance.....the men went to the other Thompson's and watched sports. Happy New Year's and warm wishes.
