Strawberries Picking

After one entire week of crazy night shift, we are finally having some family time together!

Its the end of the Strawberries season soon... and so both Kaeden and I STILL chose to wake Walker up early in the morning despite knowing that he is super sleep-deprived :P

Here we are at The Berry Ranch...

Our accomplishment for the day... USD18 worth of Strawberries!

Ash is down :(

Ash is down with flu and cough... At this very moment, I miss home so so badly... I feel so helpless here not knowing what to do.

There is no Dr Tan here that I can seek help from and neither do I know how to go about seeing a doctor here (walk-in? appointment? and with no car)

I know I got to be understanding but ever since we stepped in here last week, all Walker ever did was WORK WORK WORK... I know that this 'job' which I have signed up for is not gonna be an easy one but the very least I ask for is to get me orientate to things first!

Alone time with the kids

Walker has been really busy since we moved into MH last week due to all the handovers from LQ. Since we have not gotten a 2nd car, the kids and I were basically stranded at home.

Heehee thanks to ME... we managed to find some stuff to keep all of us entertained.

Strolling/Scooting around our beautiful neighbourhood...





Making popcorn @ home




Getting the kids to pose for my camera!

Temporary Lodging Facilities

We have moved into the 'palace' and is now holding up at the TLF till our boxes arrive on Thursday. This place is so well equipped that it feels so much like home after wandering in Boise for the past 2 weeks...

The kids making themselves comfortable :)

The siblings

Kaeden never fails to make Ash laugh happily... even with the simplest thing he does. Guess our two weeks 'adventure' being coped up in a small hotel room have brought them closer. I m glad to have given them a precious gift... each other.

Our 1st road trip - Twin Falls

We had our 1st road trip to the city of twin falls to visit the Shoshone Falls & Dierkes Lake Park. Its about 2 hours drive up from Boise and the experience was awesome!



And here we are....

Good Morning, Mrs Ray...

06 June 2011

We drove to MH on Monday to meet up with Mrs Ray, the principle for CHM.

She brought us around the school and shared with us the materials used for the Kindergarten class... Thematic curriculum, phonetic skills, maths etc are rather similar to what GH is doing but perhaps less in-depth... Nevertheless, I believe Kaeden will enjoy himself in school and hope that our overseas experience will widen his horizons...

The Egg Factory

I was googling on the web for some nice eating place around Boise and The Egg Factory sounded interesting. Quite a number of good reviews on it as well hence we drove down to try it for ourselves.



Their Today's Specials - Red Velvet Pancakes (which got Walker super hooked!)



Princess & me...




Here comes our food!



Yumilicious!





Verdict: Best of the best food we had eaten since our many days here in Boise. Definitely come back again!
