now that i am finally finished blogging about our vacation, i can get back to telling you more about what we have been up to since we have been back.

ryan's birthday was a few days after we returned from our vacation.  after many (four) failed attempts to try to surprise him for his birthday, i just went ahead and told him that i had planned a birthday celebration with our friends up in the mountains.  one of our good friends works at an english camp that is equipped with a basketball court, badminton courts, a full kitchen with 4 sinks and 7 stoves, a karaoke room and much more.  no students were at camp that week so we had the whole place to ourselves.

we spent our time there doing sports activities, playing games and making food.  i was even able to make ryan a birthday cake.
