In November we had three visitors at the same time...Kylisha's best pal Danika came back again for two weeks and Amanda's mom and her best friend Edna came for a visit at the same time.
It was a very busy two weeks since we didn't actually have any time off while they were here and it was report card time for Amanda AND Kylisha has a crazy course load this term. Danika went to school with Kylisha a few days and then spent some time exploring Macao with Amanda's mom and Edna, because let's be honest...what kid would want to spend her vacation going to school?!
While they were here we still managed to:
1. Go trick or treating (since they arrived the day before Halloween)
2. Have dinner at the Macao Tower's revolving restaurant to celebrate my birthday
3. Watch the Cirque de soliel show Zaia at the Venetian (and we also had dinner at North...a really nice restaurant where they make all their own noodles right in front of you).
4. Amanda, her mom and Edna went to Shenzhen for a girl's shopping weekend and stayed in the Shangri-La where they had high tea (and Amanda's mom bought about 50,000 pairs of shoes).
5. All the girls headed to Hong Kong for a weekend and they enjoyed a trip to Cheung Chau Island
6. Multiple trips to old Taipa and Senado Square
7. I took Amanda's mom, Edna and Danika to Zhuhai for the day so that they could go shopping (and Edna bought 50,000 pairs of shoes).
It was a fun and busy two weeks!! There are lots of pictures, but they belong to Amanda's mom and she hasn't shared...so this is all you get:
At the beginning of December Amanda made a weekend trek to Las Vegas to attend her bestie Lynn's wedding. It was a whirlwind weekend, but she is extremely happy she went and we want to wish Lynn and Dan all the best in the future! I went on Amanda's iphone to find pictures documenting the weekend. Here's what I found.
Speaking of weddings...Amanda's little sister got engaged at Christmas to one of my best friends AJ! This is great news and we can't wait to join them on Vancouver Island in August for their big day! Congratulations, E-Bo and Slayer!!
