We are thoroughly enjoying our vacation in Malaysia! Our flight out was delayed at least 10 hours due to fog, but I was happy because we were able to sleep in our own beds all night instead of getting up and trying to drag ourselves to the airport in the middle of the night! We left around 2 pm and had a good flight. We then spent a couple of days in Kuala Lumpur, shopping, looking around and enjoying places like A&W, as seen above.
The famous "Twin" Towers of Malaysia. We found some great shopping and eating places in the basement mall. Dunkin Donuts and Toys R Us made for some very happy boys! Oh my goodness, you would think that our boys have never been in a toy store, for all the commotion they raised! It was very exciting for them and they couldn't understand why we couldn't buy them everything they wanted!
Oops! These were supposed to go on first but I still haven't figured out how to switch things around. Anyway, a couple of days before we left, we spent the day at the Millers, celebrating "Christmas" with them. Riley always enjoys sitting on Grandpa's lap, especially if he gets to take pictures!
Jensen read the Christmas Story and we passed out presents. The boys remembered how Grandma used to have piles of presents and they used to take turns passing them out. She didn't disappoint them and the fun lasted for quite a while! We are so blessed to live so close to family. We spent the rest of the day eating yummy food, including goodies my mother-in-law brought out of hiding, like cashews, honey roasted peanuts, cheese balls and all kinds of chocolates! It didn't feel like we were thousands of miles from "home." I really miss the rest of our family and friends. Some days I walk around with a big ache in my heart. Yet I am so grateful for the family and friends we have on this side of the world.
