Today was quite the day! After waking up around 7:30 we had breakfast (dumplings filled with pork) and got ready for my 9:30 am casting. Despite it still being quite early in the morning it was still insanely hot. We caught our bus and arrived a little early, but by the time we found the right building we were right on time. Now all of the work I have ever done,...

Well tomorrow feels like the first step into the rest of my life! The day my first baby girl flies the coup! The day I let her brave a taxi and then the public transit system, all by herself!!!!! Ya ya. A bit dramatic I know but I can’t even begin to tell you how nervous I am. Kaatje has argued that we should save money by having her take the bus both ways and...

Waking up this morning was scary as we woke up to horrible winds, 50km/h and higher (we heard up to 100km/hr). The whole trailer was shaking. It felt like we were in the hurricane. We started getting the trailer packed up around 9:00AM. When driving I could feel the car being pushed because of the wind. As we drove farther we all said our good byes to the mountains,...

We woke up this morning to another traditional Singaporean breakfast with Umi, the maid, who works in our apartment. As soon as we were done our pork and soup, we got dressed and headed out to the botanical gardens. We were worried about heading out for some sight seeing on my day off because we saw some dark storm clouds roll in and heard large claps of thunder...

We woke up this morning around 7:30AM. This morning we had pancakes. Samantha did a wonderful job. Today we are going on another hike, but this time we’d take Coco. We did school work as normal in the morning, and I have to say I was impressed with Sam and Tammy. They did their school work very well. We ate lunch, then left for our hike. Coco was very excited...

Posted by Kaatje So my first casting was at 10 am today and it was an hour away, but since we are not used to Singapore’s transit yet we left around 8:30 am, which meant an early rise for us. The rest of the day we ran back and forth between many different casting, some of which include Archangel shoes and Long Champ, before retiring back to our room around...

This morning we woke up at 8AM. It was nice to sleep in. Tammy made cheesy eggs for breakfast, with sausage and toast. Dad as normal needed to work in the morning so Hailey and I did school work with the Cierra, Tammy, and Sam. Maria was full of energy and couldn’t sit still, until we got out her box of tiles. It was 12PM when we had lunch. Maria was excited to have...

We spent the first the first couple of days mastering the Singapore transit system. However, I have to say that it really doesn’t take much. It is so well thought out and they even have an ap where you can put in where you are and where you need to go, and it tells you exactly what to do. No fiddling with schedules…it is amazing. Sorry the picture is...

This morning dad was up early, he felt bad we hadn’t been able to reach mom and Kaatje for 24hrs. So we were off early to get to the closest internet – MacDonald’s in Havre, MT (about 120km away). It was also exciting because dad promised everyone who went in the super cold pool last night they would get ice cream. As we left, we could see the...
