Sue and I found the roof to our apartment!!! It is our favorite place in the world! The air seems a bit cleaner and it's nice to feel like we are away from everything! This is our backyard, our neighbors and our home! I'm going to go up on the roof on days it's sunny and read or sketch! It's my little paradise up there and the view is gorgeous!
... Packages!!!! Ahh I love you so much Family!! It is honestly the best thing in the world and you just don't realize how special and important a package is until you need one :) haha Michelle and Jeff! I loved yours sooo much!!!!! The spaghettiO's.. oh my :) I was in complete happiness when I saw them! I've been snacking on the skittles everyday :) Dad, Mom, Arianne and Laura I absolutely loved your package so so much!! I saved what I could and I'm eating the potato pearls and goldfish anway! The milk and fruit loops are heaven!!!! I ate the pasta dish too and oh my... I couldn't believe how amazing it was!!! I taped the letters up on my wall and I love reading them!! Thank you thank you thank you for loving me and sending me packages!!!!!!!
This picture is of a baby down at the market I could see from my window! Ha ha she was just playing with her little feet rocking back and forth! I was like where is her mother?? So I just watched from the window for a half hour the baby playing by herself on the chair. She was absolutely the cutest baby in the world! Her mother eventually came back out :)
To the picture of Catherine, me and the man! These are garbage can yams!!!! And they are the yummiest things on the planet! You have to find the man with the right garbage cans to get them :) He just has a fire going on in that garbage can and he sits yams on top and lets them bake all day!
He also has chestnut type things he roasts in coals! Those were ok, but haha I'm the biggest fan of the yam and I'm going to be scouting the poor little man out for the "garbage can yams" :)...The watermelon!! We had a celebration on the 10th! Catherine our foreign cordinator has now been with us a month and so we celebrated by eating a watermelon!! She has been the best help to us and we couldn't do it without her! I love her so much and she's become like a sister and is part of the ILP family here in Guzhen!! She is our awesome Chinese Teacher too! I'm learning tons :) I'll need to make a post about that! But October is slipping by fast! We have the huge Halloween Celebration coming up with the kids we are all so excited for!! 64 days left in China!! I can't believe how fast time goes by! I love it here and it'll be hard to part from my home I've made.

Aw that's so great that you got packages from home! And I love the yam garbage can man!
Hey Kim! I was going to sleep over at your house, but everyone was busy! I really wanted to, but it doesn't sound like it is going to happen.....:(
I'm so glad you got the package and that the spaghetti-o's were still in there!! Enjoy!! Garbage can yams??!! Maybe we will have to try that for Thanksgiving! ha ha. Sounds like it would be fun to try. (Better than fish soup!) I love you!! Eat a garbage can yam for me! (And your neice!) :)
Hello from your favorite aunt. Do you think you could mail home an authentic garbage can yam? I love reading about your experiences. Enjoy every minute!
