At the Beach on the 2nd January

Last Sunday afternoon, we brought the kids to the beach. It has really been quite awhile since our visit to the beach. It has been the rainy season for the past months and so it was not a very good time to go.

But last Sunday, the sun was out in the morning, though it was a bit cloudy in the afternoon. When we arrive in Songkhla, we saw that the waves were quite high and it was very windy. We decided not to let the kids swim in the beach, though we gave them a lot of time to play in the sand.

Here are some of the photos we took.

Lyle's enjoying the sand

Digging..digging.. are they looking for gold? I heard that a lot of people nowadays buy gold bullion. They said it would make great investment.

Now, it's Lyle's turn to be buried and I think he's enjoying it.

Tulip Festival

There's a Tulip Festival at the Hat Yai municipal park until the 10th of this month. I wanted so much to go there and see real tulips but it's a long weekend and we're sure that the place is just crowded with people. I wonder if they sell these tulips and for how much. I'm not very fond of flowers but I know many people would love receiving or sending daisies or other kinds of flowers as gifts.

If we ever get to go to see the Tulip Festival, I will surely take a lot of photos with them. :)

Looking Back and Pressing Forward

The year 2010 has indeed passed by so fast. As for our family, it was a year of transition ( from our Sabbatical leave), a year of victory and of challenges as well. As we looked back the year 2o10, Hubby and I are grateful to God for all our experiences, His blessings, His strentgh and grace. At the same time we're thankful because we've also learned many lessons along the way.

Now, we are looking forward for 2011 with that assurance that the same God who has led us in victoriously 2010, will continue to guide us through.

A Blessed New year to ALL!!
