It has been a VERY busy few days.
We are on our way to CHINA today.
3 suitcases and two carry ons. Not exactly light but pretty good for me. Only half of one of those suitcases is clothes. Then there is a lot of stuff that I guess we can't live without.
Do you know what today is?
It is Joshua's birthday!
Is that a God thing or what?
We were hoping to be with him in August.
He is 8 years old today. Happy birthday buddy.
No trip is without its drama.
We pulled an all nighter. I haven't done that since I birthed my last child. I guess I am officially in labor. I hope I sleep through the contractions for the next 15 hours.
We got to the airport and realized that we had holes in our suitcases.
Duct tape to the rescue.
Stay tuned for more adventures.
Thankful for all your prayers.
God bless.

Welcome to China!! We go to the Civil Affairs office in seven hours. We are just two days ahead of you. Glad we all go home at the same time. We are in Hangzhou Hotel now. We leave for White Swan on Friday night. We go to Hong Kong on Friday morning via train. We will be looking around for you. We visit orphanage on Wed. Happy travels!! So glad you will be on our flight home. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's great! Hope that woman doesn't go into labor until you are safely done with her :)
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you had duct tape; too funny.
Happy Birthday, Joshua, and have a safe trip, Mom & Dad.

Oh girl you know I will be praying and refreshing your blog like Kah-razy during your whole trip! I'm so excited for you! Please hug my boy for me! I'm so worried that he is going to be so sad without his little buddy around! :(
ReplyDeleteSafe travels for you. I'm so glad to hear that your travel hadn't been delayed because of the registrar.
ReplyDeleteSo happy for you!!! Prayers for a safe journey and not too many adventures ;)
