Yao got a job
Many of our friends and family know Yao has been job hunting since the Olympics finished (that was his criteria). He has been successful in his own small business ventures but had yet to be hired on with a company. Yesterday was his first day in training with UTA. He is a passenger counter on the Frontrunner while he pursues other possibilities such as: teaching Chinese for Davis School District or working for Zion's Bank.
BTW: Yao got his permanent green card last month. We'll both be happy when we don't have to give all our $ to the immigration department.

Summer Fun
Yao and I are trying to enjoy the last few days off we have together. We spent a fun-filled week with Mom and Alyvia before they left for Alaska. We rode the Frontrunner down to Salt Lake, went to Brigham City to swim, and spent the 24th at Ogden's rodeo. We also recently went to Timpanogos Cave and camping in Bear Lake.

First time for everything
We are first time bloggers. It seems everyone is doing it and we didn't want to be left behind. Yao and I are in transition right now. We just got back from a 6 week trip to China. We stayed with Yao's family and also traveled around the country to see some of our old students. I've attached pictures of some of the highlights.
School starts back up for me August 25th but I have to go back to work on the 13th. So I'm trying to soak up all the extra sleep and fun I can in the next couple weeks. Then it is back to the grind. Yao is preparing to take the GMAT while looking for a job. His aspirations are to work for the Post Office j/k.
The last of my family has just left for Alaska and Yao and I are ready to enjoy a house to ourselves. As you know, there are certain perks to living alone. It was a lot of fun having everyone here for awhile though.
Stay tuned for more excitement to come.
