Moore updates!!

Hello All
I am running out of cute ways to use our last name in the title. Any ideas are welcome. SOoooo where do I start. We have been so busy. The boys started school on August 6Th. Yes, I was doing the happy dance all morning. Paul and I took them on their first day. We took them to there classes gave them hugs and kisses (well I wanted to do that but they wouldn't let me.) Paul and I went to a new parent reception and then hit the road. We weren't even in the car 5 minutes and I got the "now that the boys are in school all day maybe you should get a job" speech. Huh?? I'm sorry a WHAT? no thanks. I have big plans...i was going to go work out after the bus left in the morning and get moving and go on big adventures every day. Well here's how that turned out. We have to get up at 5:15Am and they leave at 6:10. Then I go back up stairs and go back to bed..shh that's a secret. I think if the boys found out the would string me up!!! I do go work out and then shower.....then I can't think of anything to do but chill out in the condo. Lame lame lame!!
So I am fixing that problem this week and I am going to hang out at the Embassy on Wednesday morning and take an orientation class. Then they are going to show me the library so I can volunteer in there. Library that's the place where they keep books right?? Yeah I will be very useful there!! Then on Friday I am going to take the walking tour for about 2 hours and meet some peeps.
Wow I wish I could show you what just happened. Its the rainy season here and for the most part I have not seen any monsoon rains. Well it is raining now. I will try and send the pictures I just took.
Anyway some of you already know this because I called you but we hooked up our Internet phone. Same number we had in Washington 253-238-9136. There are no international charges for you or us. So give us a call. West coast, we are 14 hours ahead of you. Midwest 12 hours ahead.
Tomorrow is mothers day and the queens birthday. The boys are off from school and Paul is off from work. We are going to try and get out and take some pictures of the palace. Its suppose to be decorated with lights and flowers for the Queens birthday.
The boys want to go to the snake farm....um no!! I am scared of lady bugs for Gods sake!!! I will have to work my way up to that. With my luck one will escape and seek me out. Can you imagine the headlines in the Thai paper!! Blondzilla dies of heart attack when Cobra escaped its cage. Or maybe its basket whatever they keep them in.
Some of you have asked about Keegan and how he is handling everything here. He has been awesome. He has been so adventurous. Loves walking around town and seeing all the neat things. He loves to haggle with the street vendors. He is a tough sale. Its so much fun to see the boys getting comfortable with everything and meeting all the people. They are very anxious to get out of the city and explore. We are hoping to go to Hua Hin for a weekend. They can ride elephants there.
Okay so I have hopefully attatched some pictures. Maybe in the first couple you can tell its raining really hard. There are some of our visit to Pauls office also. The boys on there first day of school as well.
Moore later
