Happy New Year 2015!
Ohhh my, does time slip by when you are busy with this very active family.
We are dialing the time back to Christmas (one of my most favorite times of year). The holiday season was celebrated in Chiang Mai with a big Christmas Eve party, a memorable Christmas day and great quality family time. When the kids are on school break it is so nice to just slow the gears down and chill out together… very cherished times.

| (Emma and I made a new friend, she was pretty funny. She told the joke… Why did the skeleton play the piano? Because she didn’t have any organs! |
 |
| (LOVE this. Who said Thais don’t have a sense of humor. These signs were placed all over the amusement park to notify customers where the toilets were located… so cute) |
 |
| (One of the scariest rides I have ever been on. The kids loved every minute of it going on multiple times) |
Press PLAY to tap your toes to the fun music!
