Standing in line at McDonalds, I was so excited to eat my French fries with ketchup! Here, they kindly give you two packages of ketchup on your tray. I often just stare at the two packages knowing it will only last about 10 fries, but because I don’t know the language just deal with it.
This time around I was smart. I learned the Chinese word for “more”. All I had to do was point and say it, and I would be set. The food comes I point to the ketchup and say “mas por favor”. *Blank stare from the worker*….I panic I then decide to sign it to him. *confused stare* At this point all I could do is laugh and speak English. He kindly laughed with me and handed me ketchup and said in English, “Is that enough or would you like more?”
The time has finally come to reveal what you all have been longing for......our home! I really wish I had taken before pictures, so you could see what all we did to the place. Here is the result of all our creativity and shopping trips back and forth from store to store. We don't have any decorations up yet, just the main necessity things...but soon I hope to add some color with pillows, art, and some throw blankets!!
