The US Consulate here in Chiang Mai had a special celebration for July 4th. We were able to go celebrate with all the other Americans living here right now. They had all-american food, music , and fireworks. Cory was especially excited to get some Mountain Dew, which is not sold in Thailand and is imported specifically for this event.
The girls had a grand old time running all over with friends and new found friends. Here's a picture of them with Caleb and Hannah, friends from the homeschool co-op.
It was a great night and we enjoyed it with Cory's mom, Penny, and Bob, his step-dad, who are visiting right now. We're having fun showing them around Chaing Mai. Today Cory took them on a trek to see the hill tribes, ride elephants, and go bamboo rafting.
Last Sunday, Evie turned 7 years old! To celebrate we threw a tea party for not just two, but 10 little girls. They all wore fancy hats and white gloves and drank apple juice out of crystal tea cups. Evie and all the girls loved being little ladies for the day. Here's some pictures:
Here's Winnie to tell you all about Tiger Kingdom and her adventure there:
"Well, it's so fun. And I got to play with the tigers. The baby ones and maybe you should too! But you got to clean your hands at the end. That's all."
(Evie was too scared to do it this time, but quickly regretted her decision when she saw how much fun Winnie was having, so we're hoping to take her back for her birthday so she can play with them too.)
