How to Celebrate Your 3-Year Anniversary in New Zealand

Oak and Mercy made the cake


Our 3rd-annual celebration involved our traditional cake and singing the national anthems of USA and NZ.

This year our celebration happened at the same time as we signed up for a USA-based streaming service just so we could watch the Olympics!  So fun!

Even the commercials are fun when you've never had a TV connection in your home!

Lights turned on for Sage, who thought her friend, Lutia, was just making excuses about having to run home after school to see her favorite TV show.  (Sage:  "Now I GET IT... you CAN'T pause or go back!")

Lights turned on for Mercy as she realized that Studio C was spoofing a weather report in their end-of-the-world-weather skit.  When Mercy saw her first TV weather report, she said, "It looks just like Studio C!"

All the kids are learning important American vocabulary like "Jimmy Fallon" and "Chevrolet."
