Merry Christmas! We hope that your last few days have been filled with love and joy as you celebrate together. We have missed being near you during the holidays. We had a wonderful time here with our friends, relaxing together and enjoying the peace and joy of Christmas. We also had some wonderful and amazing food and our now rested with belly's full. We are stocked up on candy as well for rest of our stay here in China. Speaking of our stay here in China, we have purchased plane tickets back to Oregon and will be arriving home at 7 AM on the morning of January 25th. We are excited to be home and see all of you but we are also trying to take the most of the time we have left we so many wonderful friends here and students as well. We have only a week and a half left of regular classes and then two weeks of testing and then we will be off to the Dolphin Bay Resort in Hua Hin, Thailand for five days of relaxation and rest before returning home. We hope to ride elephants, ride moped, kayak and walk on the beach during our stay at the resort on the beach. It has been getting colder here so we are looking forward to the tropics of Thailand, but we also bought a space heater here and have been sitting next to it the last few days, watching movies we received for Christmas, as well as a video of the Wolves and my talented brother Mark, playing football, which has been a great treat. We will keep you posted as we continue to prepare for 're-entry' and can't wait to see all of you soon. Here are some pictures from our holidays here in Nanning.
Sincerely,
Ryan and Kealy Thorson
