Back to the grind.

Well, Adam and I successfully made it back to Taiwan from North America. We had a fantastic time in both Decorah and St. John's (Newfoundland, for those of you that didn't know). Here are some highlights:

Mom had a party so everyone could come over and check out Adam. Here he is with Jamie and I, having a great time.


No, really, it was a fun time and he was the life of the party, as always.


We also went to the Back Home Bakery to hang out with some old people and eat doughnuts, but we were the only people there!


Fortunately, we got to take this picture of Krumkake, which Adam thought was very funny. I guess if you've never heard of it before, it might be kind of funny. (It is pronounced croom-ca-ca, it is a Norwegian cookie.)


Then we got to witness a dog driving a car. This is only legal in Decorah, Iowa. Look carefully and you will see the Border Collie behind the wheel.


We went to Wal-Mart and watched Andy play Big Buck Hunter. Awesome!


Adam played with his new Christmas present.


We played mini-golf on the TV at my dad's house.


We saw some Amish people riding in their buggies.


Lastly, I spent a nice relaxing Christmas day curled up in my new Hawkeye blanket!


Then it was off to St. John's. We were very busy the whole time we were there. To look at the pictures from St. John's go to Adam's link: http://picasaweb.google.com/theadamhunt/AdamAndKatieInNewfoundland

Here are just a couple of my favorite ones.


New Year's Eve, and as you can tell, Adam is having a blast!


It really was a fun night, we got to wear these cool hats, it was snowing big fat snowflakes, and there were fireworks! I loved it!


Here we are at his friends' wedding.

Okay, that is all for now. Sorry it has been so long, but I will try to be better. We leave for Cambodia Feb. 10th for Chinese New Year, and we will be gone for two weeks, so hopefully I will get pictures up soon after we get back!
