Adventures of being adopted into a Chinese Family!

I had the privilege of being invited by one of our favorite teachers from our school to go to a barbeque. After some of the accomodations were changed last minute, we went to a fellow teachers apartment. Dinah, our favorite teacher who is always very sweet to us and very excited about working on her english, took us, along with her son Chucky, to the apartment. The husband picked us up and we found out that he loved Kareoke! Everyone in China does, but little did we know that he had a huge system in his apartment.

He was nice enough to get some american songs, such as Celine Dion, Brittany Spears, and really old school loves songs so that we could sing them. We werent sure what to expect but as soon as we got there we knew it would be a great time!





Dinah is in the purple, Chucky in the orange, April (she let me give her a new english name :D) in the black, and Mrs. Zho in the grey.
We had a great time play fighting. I let Chucky beat me up pretty good! I had no chance against the little guy and his amazing moves!









I
I ate sooooo much food. My belly was sticking out. So I pretended i was pregnant and they thought it was hilarious. But yet they kept feeding me! I dont think i had had that much meat with out a lot of fat, the whole time ive been in China!
This is our 2 wonderful hosts! Neither of them spoke english. Mr. Zho could understand a little from all of the american war movies he's seen. Mrs. Zho was an amazing cook! She was the sweetest lady and it felt like being home. By the end of the night we were calling Them mama and babba




















They lived on the top floor. It was pooring rain. We had the BBQ on the patio part that was coverd and the city lights were hidden by the buildings accross from us.






























MEAT!!! You have no idea how good this looks to a carnivour american girl who has only eatin meat the size of her thumb!





























We kareoke'd it up baby! even though we sounded horrible they absolutely loved it! Celine Dion My Heart Will Go ON!!!!!
