rose

Today was an explore Hualien kind of day.

Recently I have been obsessed with rice fields. I don't know why.



Such a cute old guy. I had to take a picture.

We even found ourselves in the middle of a gay parade.

I finally got a picture of the Buddhist University. I think it is such a beautiful building.

Vegetable pasta! Yum! They love Lima beans here and so do I: )
We ended our Saturday by attending a baptism of two investigators, and also helping the sisters teach. Then off to the night market for dumplings and cotton candy.

Each day after I am done teaching at the preschool, I tutor for a couple hours. I really love the kids I get to work with. One in particular that I am going to miss is this girl. Meet Rose.


Love her!

We have a lot of fun, can you tell?

Each week Rose brings us something to snack on while we are working

She is so silly.


Thanks to my Logan for providing us with treats for this week.
We always have so much fun, lots of treats and I promise we work a little bit too!

Mothers Day

This week we learned about moms and what better way to teach them about moms than to have them see what it would be like to be pregnant?  Mostly it was fun and they loved the "bubbles" aka balloons.


A pregnant boy riding a bike can be quite amusing to watch




How cute is this? Using her belly to rest her hands.



Also I miss and love my  Mom and I am sad I wasn't able to be home for Mothers Day. I guess there is always next year right?

Riding in the Rain

When you wake up at 5:19 in the morning you get to see the sunrise. However, you may be to tired to actually get out of bed to take a picture so you take a picture from your bedroom window. Good picture taking Ashley. Good One.


Sometimes you get caught riding your bike in the rain. It may not look like I am wet but I can assure you I am soaking wet. Oh how I love riding my bike in the rain.
