Awesome Day!

In our afternoon class in the new apartment we had almost twice the students we usually have! Everyone keeps bringing their friends, siblings, dance instructors (Latin and ballet), coworkers, etc. It just keeps growing and growing! It's awesome!

After our kids class we went out with the Wei family for dinner and it was so much fun! Afterwards we went to visit their home, which is surprisingly close to where we stay every weekend and has gorgeous ceilings. Mr. Wei works at the TV station in Ningxia and is an incredibly gifted and intelligent (and hilarious!) man! His wife is really sweet too. His 11 year old daughter played us a Mozart piece and a Bach piece on the piano, allowed us to look through her very impressive sketch book, and introduced us to her hamster Pang Pang (fat-fat). Our favorite part about the night may have been when we walked into their apartment and it was not clean at all. It was messy (cluttered as opposed to unsanitary) in the "we're too busy making the most of life to clean" kind of way, and it was fabulous. We can't wait to go out with them again. I must say I love the Wei's so much I may not keep up this cleaning streak that I've been on. 

We have off school on Monday because it's the 'burn money to honor your dead ancestors' holiday. Of course it doesn't matter to Shawn because he never teaches on Monday and the 2 hour class I teach is my favorite one. We're still happy though. A day off is a day off!

Happy Birthday Anna!
