Ryan and his mom and dad went out this weekend and had some fun with the snow and then got cold. Then we made a fire and went inside to warm up. Watch the video and enjoy!

Ryan has been studying so much lately and we’ve got tons to show you all!  Today’s word: TIGER

For those in China:

While translating our Super Bowl comic Mx and I were using our good old Google Picasa and again the Google translation from Chinese to English made us laugh.

加油 jiāyóu in Chinese means “GO!” or “COME ON!”  But literally in English it means to add more fuel.  加 means to add and 油 means fuel.  For whatever reason, Google decided to translate it as “Refueling…” which came out really funny!

This was another Google translation that made us laugh from last Christmas.

This is the jiāyóu entry in NCIKU.com which is by far the best Chinese/English dictionary on the web today.

Oh. and if anybody noticed in the last frame of the comic on the right side is a poster identifying the place that I was able to watch the Super Bowl for many years in Shanghai.  Good old Malone’s American Cafe.  Frankly speaking, I only went in there for the Super Bowl.  (Ok I went in a couple of other times…)  Great place for a Super Bowl Breakfast!!
