We Wish we could have taken them all Home!!




These children are so sweet. If we had the chance to put them all in our car to take home we would have. We were able to spend a couple of hours at an orphanage near our home. We felt very blessed to spend a couple hours with these amazing sweet spirits. It just broke our hearts to leave. Knowing that these children have no parents or family and maybe the only love and hug that they received that day was from us. As we looked into the childrens eyes, we could just feel how sad and lonely they were. We felt very blessed for those couple of hours to wrap our arms around them and give them the love they truly deserve.

Man Made Bridge




As I mentioned in an earlier post, we had the opportunity to visit a farmers home. As he was giving us a tour of all his wonderful fruits he would pick up this long plank and throw it to the other side so we could walk all around his farm. Only in some guys backyard in Thailand would this happen.

One Night in Bangkok




My dad knows all the secret places in Thailand. One night we rented a long tail motor boat to drive us around the Chao Praya River. We were literally inches from the gross, fish-eating water and I was scared for my life as our driver was going around 50mph. My dad wanted us to experience the real Thailand and that is just what we got. We stopped over at a fruit farmers house who lives along the river. He showed us around his beautiful farm and invited us into his house.

Only in Thailand!


We were able to go to an alligator farm. The largest alligator farm in the world to be exact. We were able to watch an alligator show, where the workers would stick their heads inside the mouths of these large, scary and disgusting reptiles. I was even brave enough to get a picture next to one.

What an Amazing Vacation!!!


Brandon and I just returned home from a two an half week paradise vacation. We definitely had the life of luxury in Thailand. With our massages everyday and Sienna's manicures and pedicures we couldn't ask for more. We had such a great time bowling, seeing movies, eating great Thai food and just spending time with my family. We are already missing it and can't wait to go next year!!!

THAILAND!!!!




Due to increasing demand, I am going to make a new post. We just got back from our trip to Thailand, and it was so awesome. We had a blast. Im sure Sienna will want to write more about it, so I will have her do a post to talk all about it. I will just put a few of the most important pictures up and let her do the rest.
