He's here....
And now he's gone :(
After being apart from each other for 6 1/2 weeks we were finally able to give him a big hug!! Unfortunately, the time went way too fast and he had to go back. He arrived on a Sunday night and was gone Saturday morning.
The kids were in school for the week, but we pulled them out half day to attend the Shanghai Rolex Masters tennis tournament. Rilynn had a performance at school which was great that he was able to see, as well as their swimming and gymnastic lessons. We also enjoyed bowling, playing baseball, eating out with friends, and just hanging out with each other!
I enjoyed my 'visitor' dragging him around town and showing him what I like to do best here... SHOP! LOL
It was a great week, but so sad to see him go! Now we have to wait until Thanksgiving to spend more time with him.. Can't wait!!
The tournament started at 2:00pm. We got there and saw that Roger Federer did not play until 8:00pm. The kids had fun going, but were not having that much fun to make it until 8 :) Plus it was a school night. Thankfully though we were able to see him warm up, which was very cool!
They had a center court and then other smaller courts going on. We walked around and sat really close at this match. However, we probably picked the worst seats as we were right next to the CZE's coach and dad!! Thankfully, the kids were dead silent, but it was me who forgot to shut my phone off. It looks could kill!!! Even taking pictures was too much noise. LOL .. Needless to say we didn't stay too long at that match.

Mini Vacation - SheShan
After biking, going on a boat ride, running errands, we were ready for a mini vacation. So I booked an overnight stay at the Le Meridien Resort in SheShan an hour away. We were in SheShan last month and it was so nice to escape the city for a bit! The hotel was nice - had an outdoor infinity pool, playground, beach, and indoor pool. We enjoyed all of the above the first day :)
Right next to the hotel was a park called Shanghai Sculpture Park. I've heard great things about it so was looking forward to spend the day there. It's a park all around a man made lake with a bunch of different statues that the kids can climb on. So of course they loved that and wanted their picture taken with them :)
Crazy statues on the beach and some in the water!
Of course they would be naked.. Don't we all let the kids naked on the beach?! LOL, only in China!
The kids LOVED these things!!
We came prepared with the kids' swimsuits, however most of the kids just lost their pants and went out in their underwear. Or as the little boy in the white shirt, el commando!
This thing was very cool. It was a gigantic trampoline!!
Net crawl
Good night :)
The kids loved this man made cave bathroom with stalactites as the faucets!
Was an exhausting 2 days, but definitely fun!! Not we just have to wait 1 more day until Chad comes to visit!!!!
