Well tonight is our last night in China. We are leaving with a mix of emotions. We are ever so ready to get back home and get into our routine, but we are also sad to leave this wonderful country behind.

The Chinese people have been so great to us, we have enjoyed their warm embrace of us. We took Amie down to the American Embassy in Guangzhou and she received her visa to America. We will have to "re-adopt" in the states so she can get an American birth certificate.

We gave Amie her first ice cream cone tonight after dinner- Mango ( Blanton's suggestion:)) She loved it!!!








We also took the traditional picture of the babies and families on the "Red Couch" of the White Swan Hotel today. All the babies were just so cute dressed in Mandarin style dress.

We will post pictures tomorrow while we are hanging at the airport.Can't wait to be home- Please pray for a safe, smooth trip home!!!

    Amie is just so darling in all your photos.. and more so in person I'm sure! As the "Cajun Gingerbread Boy" would say... "My, my, bon appetit! You look good enough to eat!"
