USA

I'm sitting in the airport in San Fran right now waiting for my flight. This is the first free time I've had since we got to the states a week ago. Jen, Will and I got to Utah a week ago but have been up north because I had to be in the office all week. This was a very busy week. I've probably slept about 8 out of the past 72 hours, not fun. But coming to the US is always enjoyable and it's always fun to see friends and family.

Here is Will and one of Jen's former coworker's son. They were so kind to invite us over for a home cooked meal. Will is about the same size as this little fella but half his age. This kid can walk! Will is getting close to crawling, and has obviously perfected eating.

Will doesn't have much hair compared to a lot of other kids but if you look at his genes that is something he should just get used to.



Here is Will hanging out with Great Grandpa. He is 96! Glad we were able to go down and visit him. Jen doesn't know I took this picture but her and Will looked so cute. Wild Bill had some serious jet lag, which made ours that much worse.



This is the week before we came back to the US. This is on the newly reopened BUND in Shanghai. This is a 5 min walk from our apartment.



Jen and will sporting their sunglasses. He loves to wear them!



I'm going to get on a plane soon but Jen and Will are staying in the US until the 4th of July. Now is the time of year when our branch starts to empty out because many of the families head back to their home countries for the summer. It usually goes something like this; the whole family leaves together for a week or two and then the husband comes back while the family stays home for another month or two. Fortunatley I already have a few friends in the branch that are in the same solo boat as me and they usually get together a lot to keep each other company.
I'll be in Taiwan next week and should be able to blog again then.

It was so good to see you and Jen, even if it was just for a short visit. Thanks again for bringing back the nativity! I can't bring myself to put it away yet...it is so cool! Have a good trip to Taiwan, and we hope to see Jen while she is in the states.
