Hong Kong Disneyland or Bust!!!

Well we finally made it to HK Disney for Dylan's birthday. It was a great day, so good that the next day I went again. The main thing is that Dylan had a great time. I have now learnt that he will be taking driving lessons with Wayne in his car, not mine.....Only kidding!

Yesterday I went with my friends Elaine and Janet. Talk about 3 ladies doing tea, we sure did just that. It was a great day. We went on a tour of the Disney Hotel and now Janet and I are planning to take the kids there for an overnight slumber party hopefully in the beginning of December.

Congratulations to Ben and Jean on the arrival of Riley Lockhart Sawin. Now I know 3 Riley's in 3 different countries.

The kids are doing well and are preparing for Halloween this coming weekend. Dylan is going to be a T-Bird from the movie Grease and Jackson is going to be Napolean Dynamite. If anybody in Hong Kong knows where and what the grease is called to put in Dylan's hair I would really appreciate the advise. All I can think of is Brylcream, but that's not here that in Australia. If I'd only gotten onto this sooner, I could have called on you Dad to help me out with this one. I also need to find a switch blade style comb.

Next week we are on school holidays. Who knows what or where we will go, just as long as we have fun. I think I will leave it up to the boys to decide. We were trying to go to Tokyo, but we have been having trouble getting a room. Wayne was going to fly over to meet up with us as he is going to be in Kuala Lumpur for the next week and a half, but now as you know we are all just going to hang out at home.....Maybe I can take them to tennis with me.

Boy, how time sure flies when you are doing nothing!

Well I cannot believe it is nearly one month since my last note. So I thought to myself I should sit down and type something to fill the empty space on my blog site. So here goes in a nut shell what we have been up to lately:

Wayne has been traveling to all sorts of exotic places. These being Shanghai, Malaysia, Tampa and Chicago. Chicago is his current port of call. He will be back in Hong Kong from an exhausting trip this Sunday.

Jackson has started tennis lessons and is starting to make progress on getting his homework done on Friday afternoons instead of leaving it till Sunday night. This is an early Christmas miracle for us! He is still doing a great job in his Chinese painting class.

Dylan had his trumpet stolen and is not very happy to be using the old one that the school has lent us. We have to admit that we are a bit peeved that a kid at the school would do this. We have had every teacher in the school looking for it, but as yet we have not had any luck in finding it. Dylan is also improving in his Chinese painting class.

He has also taken up tennis and seems to be really enjoying it.

Me, well I have started having tennis lessons twice to three times per week. I find it very tiring and very challenging. It's definitely a great way to get all your frustrations out of your body. It doesn't hurt with the added health benefits either. So I would have to say I am really enjoying myself at the moment. I'm still doing my Chinese painting, but now I actually have a painting partner. So it's nice to not be the only one in the class for a while.

Anyway, that's all the news I have for you right now. Let's chat later, shall we.

Love ya. x
