So, here's a quick snapshot of some of our Thailand "firsts"...
The first place we stayed when we arrived in Thailand...
"The Bai Bua Resort" in Ang Sila.
First major ice-cream face...
(there have been many, many more since this was taken!)
First batch of cookies baked in my very first Thai oven...
... I used THIS recipe and they turned out great!
Opening our very first parcel... from Nammy & Dampa Glen :)
Celebrating our first American Thanksgiving with the Owen family...
Opening our first parcel from Gramma & Grampa Esau...
Experiencing my first BRUTAL mosquito bites in Thailand...
First batch of beautiful Thai flowers... birds of paradise.
And we'll be experiencing another "first" today!! Jon just went to pick up our very first Thai car! Up until this point, we've only had bicycles to get around on so we're VERY excited about this new found freedom. Its amazing how much you take transportation for granted until you don't have it anymore :) I'll post pictures of our 'new-to-us' car once its home safe and sound.

Wow! Congrats guys! I was excited that I went to the store by myself for the first time today. I can't imagine driving... Taxis are our friends right now. : ) You guys are awesome!
Yeah for a car! I love driving so I know how hard it would be to go without! Merry Christmas to you three! We love you lots! Your Christmas picture was BEAUTIFUL by the way! Looking forward to the next Skype.
Thanks for your note...I am happy that you have that delightful cookbook and that you could make some simple cookies. I've enjoyed reading your blog and keeping up.
It's such a good way to communicate.
Blessings to both of you and your family in the New Year and I'm sure there will be many 'firsts' to come.
