Hello all (My first Post on Dawn's Site)!

There was no better way to spend my 40th birthday today than to spend in Guangzhou China with my 2 little Chinese born daughters! (and of course Dawn & Camden).

We were able to have a great dinner with another couple we met from New Orleans, with birthday cake and a great US steak. The best present of the day was Harper singing Happy Birthday in her language - "eppy si di coo you, eppy si di coo you" to the same tune we sing to!

I have enjoyed seeing Dawn post and read all the comments on our journey. We feel very loved by each of you.

I have to say that I had a wonderful time the past week and 1/2, BUT I am ready to get back home! Harper needs to fatten up, so I look forward to taking her to Krispy Kreme doughnuts and five guys for a burger & fries.

see you all soon,

Cole


* Now it is my turn :)  Hope you enjoy the pictures!  As you can see, she is really coming out of her shell - opening up more and more everyday.  This girl has a wonderful sense of humor.   Silly faces are happening ALL the time now.  We LOVE this girl's personality!




Look at Harper's face - You think she like's ice-cream???





This is our travel group!  We have enjoyed getting to know these other two families and very glad to share this awesome trip with them.



What a birthday present!  Happy Birthday to my awesome husband :)


Amazing the people you meet on these trips!  Love hearing other people's stories and making new friends :)
