    • I'm a pregger. January 30, 2012
      Well, the stick showed it, and the ob/gyn confirmed it. So I guess I am officially pregnant now! The baby is in its week 7 and is the size of a blueberry. This week the baby is developing arms and legs. It's mind-boggling a 'thing' the size of a blueberry has hands and feet!Wow, it sounds so surreal! When I took the pregnancy test, I was expec […]

    • Happy Chinese New Year! January 23, 2012
      Yay! The first day of Chinese New Year. This is the year of the dragon, which is probably the most auspicious year for the Chinese, since we Chinese are the descendants of the dragon.Every year during this time I miss my family terribly. It's supposed to be a time for family gathering and I miss out on that every year ever since I moved to the U.S. Sigh […]

    • Story #358: Thanksgiving 2011 November 26, 2011
      Happy Thanksgiving! I had a great time in Las Vegas with my cousins and their families. One of my cousins and her daughter flew in from Malaysia and they drove to Las Vegas with my other cousin and her family. It was so great to see them and get caught up on each other's life. This was the first time I celebrated Thanksgiving with my side of the family […]

    Happy New Year!

    By Leighton | January 3, 2009

    Hey, I hope everyone had a really happy new year celebration! I know I did. Sharon and I spent some quiet time at home and then went outside to watch the fireworks. I made some Resolutions and have been trying my best to keep them. Last week we went to an Archery Range that was on the top floor of a mall here. I’ve been wanting to go for quite a while and Sharon finally relented and took me there. We ended up having a lot of fun, and resolved to come back more often. After Archery, we went to the Movie Theater there and watched Bolt. It was a good movie, and we really enjoyed it. Other than that, not much happened this week. Sharon was able to get the upgraded pay rate at her job as a School Teacher here, so that was a real blessing. We had been praying for that, so it’s nice it happened. We are still waiting on the Visa, but hopefully it will get here soon.

    I am going to be starting school this week, I am taking Online Courses from Dixie. It will be a nice change of pace, and even though they didn’t offer any computer-related courses online, I am still happy to get some electoral credits.

    It was also nice to be able to talk to my mom and Tyler over the Holidays. Tyler is coming back on February 19th. That is pretty close! Anyways, I’ll keep everyone updated on the latest. Ciao!
