Thursday update

Hi everyone!
Yesterday we visited a Buddhist temple which was very incredible and beautiful and we visited Greenlake Park, which is a hugh park with a lake in the center of Kunming. We strolled around the park and listened to some of the local people singing and playing instruments. You would have thought that we were stars with lots of people surrounding us and wanting pictures taken with us. Logan and Jennifer's hair really fascinated them. People especially wanted their babies pictures taken with Jennifer. You would have thought that she was a princess or a movie star.

Bought Meigan squeeky shoes today. They're so cute. Everytime she takes a step, they squeek because they have built in squeekers in the shoes. Actually, her Pop Pop bought them for her. Jennifer also got a new pair of shoes. They're really pretty pink dress shoes with a little heel. They also have beads on the top. She just loves them.

Tomorrow we leave for Guangzhou. We will be there until next friday, sept. 29th. We are anxious to see the other families again that flew over with us from Chicago. They all have their babies now and we will all be staying at the same hotel in Guangzhou. Hopefully, in Guangzhou, we will be able to post some new pictures. They don't have internet service in the room here so we have had to use a computer in the business center and it's too hard to figure out how to post pictures. Most of the words on this computer is in Chinese, so we pretty much guess at most things or just try to remember from our computers at home.

Will try to post tomorrow or the next day for sure.

Glad to hear things are going so well. Have a great time in Guangzhou!!

Is Connie your guide there? If so, please tell her hello from Mali & I. She's the best =) I'm sure she sees a lot of people, I don't know if she'd remember us. She used to call Mali something that sounded like 'joo-joo' and it meant little piggy (hehe). Maybe that'll spark her memory . . .

We can't wait to meet up with you guys again & meet little Meigan!!
