funny.

These videos brought joy to my soul. Kind of mocking the culture of Northwest America...

allah and yosu.

Two of our friends here Allah and Yosu are getting married next month. They asked me to take some photos for their engagement, and here are a few for those of you who have met them. :)

ostrich riding and a monkey attack.

My father, mother, aunt Anna and cousin Katrina were just here for a visit. We had a wonderful time together and kept their schedule pretty packed the entire time. While in Chiang Rai, we held a few different mobile clinics in the Akha village nearest us.  I think this is probably the first time dad gave adjustments with chickens laying eggs behind him and flying over him. After our time in Chiang Rai we drove to Chiang Mai so that the ladies could take a massage course, and so that we could spend some time with my cousins Keith and Rhoda who are currently there. From Chiang Mai we flew to Bangkok, then took a quick 1.5 trip to a beach 2 hours south of Bangkok. We LOVED having them here, and are so thankful for all they sacrificed to come and be with us. They hiked up to a waterfall, rode ostriches, went to a fish spa, experienced Thai massage, met our close friends here, the staff at the clinic I work at, the nurses in Bangkok that cared for Olive, and so much more.

Here are two little videos of them...
