November 15

The holidays are over and the last of the company has gone, so it's back to reality. :( Thought I'd start with continuing our Thailand blogs.
Today's post IS November 15th, but it's from the point of view of the kiddo's and I!
Jeremy and Ryan took a little testosterone expedition that day and I'll have to leave it to him to post his pictures and explain his day. :)

Laura and I chose to hang low at her house and just let the kids play all day. They started the day with a yummy breakfast, complete with food safe markers for decorating your pancakes!

Somebody must be missing Creampuff!

Of course, Marshall made a titanic pancake!
(Gotta love the un-smiley face!)

These little mandarins were the best! They were so good and sweet that you would start eating them and before you knew it, you'd have a huge pile of peels and many oranges perished for your breakfast.

Passionfruit... Tastes good even if it looks like caviar!

See.... YUM!!!

The creativity didn't end with breakfast. Katie had a face painting kit and before we knew it, everyone was all decorated. Abby helped the little kids with theirs. Madeline wanted to be a Lion.

So did Amelia!

Marshall chose shark...

And Lia made this crafty little rooster all by herself!

I found Amelia checking out her new face. What a sweetie!

When the face painting was over, they headed outside to ride scooters and explore the campus for the rest of the afternoon.

Laura made homemade pitas for dinner. Abby thought the rolling part looked like fun, so she helped. They were SOOO good! I came home from this trip with quite a few new recipes to try.

The Ashlocks itty bitty puppy, Caramel
He may be tiny, but he'll steal your heart in a New York minute!

Thai for Coke Zero!
