We are enjoying Beijing! The flight over was long but smooth and we had GREAT seats! We slept as much as possible on the plane but we were still wiped out when we got here. We are staying at the Holiday Inn in Beijing and the room is nice and large. Today we went to the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and went for a ride on a Rickshaw Bicycle. We toured a silk factory and bought some awesome silk pillows and sheets. We also bought some beautiful dresses for Isabella and Carson (our newest niece). At lunch we went to a Tai Restaurant and watched traditional Chinese dancers. We have met several families traveling in the group and are getting to know more about each of them as the days pass. We are counting down the days until we meet Isabella. We have taken lots of pictures and will upload them the next time we get on the computer. Tomorrow, we have plans to see the Great Wall and a Chinese Acrobat Show.
Please continue to send lots of prayers! We have received them! They are working! Frank has not been anxious and I have been really relaxed! Thank you Lord for your protection and Safety! Please continue to look after our family! Also, thank you for baby Carson! I hear she is beautiful! and I can't wait to meet her! I have a beautiful dress for you baby girl! THANK YOU LORD FOR ALL OF THE BLESSINGS YOU HAVE GIVEN US AND ALL THE WONDERFUL ONES WE ARE YET TO RECEIVE WITH THE BIGGEST BEING ISABELLA!
Love,
Dawn & Frank

I know you are so excited. Glad the flight over was nice and hope the rest of the trip goes as smoothly. Making plans to see that beautiful girl next summer and hope I get to see Miss Carson as well. Love to you all and continued prayers. Nicole
We are so excited that you all arrived safely and are having some down time for touring the country. Better enjoy your last few days. Timing is everything and your big day is around the corner. Got your wonderful card in the mail today and cried a bucket of tears. As Memaw and I write this we can't wait until you see and kiss Isabella. There is nothing like the adventure you are about to begin. Hurry up and join us on ours. Much love...Josh, Diane Carson,Coco and Memaw.
PS. talked to Lydia tonight and all is well with the animals. She said she was enjoying the stay and the animals were great.
Dearest Mommy & Daddy,
We are all home awaiting your new arrival Isabella. It takes a village to raise her and I want to be part of your village.
Praise God!
Love,
Maureen
So glad to read your update. I miss you both. Don and I played with the dogs today and gave Oscar a workout. I saw Alex was relaxing under the truck. I'm awaiting your next post after you see Isabella! WooHoo. And congratulations to Diane and Josh on their little Carson. I look forward to meeting them too.
