Meili's 6th Birthday...

Image
Meili's only request this year was to spend her birthday in Bear Lake.  That was not a problem.  Since it was also Raspberry Days that weekend, my family planned to come spend a fun-filled weekend with us.  Russel and I decided to come the night before and bring the three little kids with us.  We thought it would be super fun to go down to the KOA and rent a 6-person bike and ride around town.  It was a little harder than we thought since Russel and I were pretty much the man power.  We kept telling the kids to start pulling their weight and get pedaling!  JD kept complaining a little that his heart was hurting.  Well he's definitely a little athlete so I'm just thinking he's being lazy.  I kept telling him to get his groove on and get moving. Well after about an hour we returned the bike and went for snow cones.  The best snow cones in all of Bear Lake.  Yum!  Anyway, JD kept saying his heart was going so fast and I kept brush...

A couple of Sundays ago, all the kids were out playing on the deck. It was a beautiful night. The wind and the rain started up and Meili just went crazy. She loved every second.

Here We Go....

Well, for the most part we are ready to get on that plane!! We have all the stuff from the Eagle Project packed up and ready to go and all of Meili's stuff is packed....and nanny gifts, and guide gifts, etc. There's a heck of a lot of stuff we are taking that thankfully we get to leave there. We have our flights booked. We leave Wednesday the 28th at 5:00 and reach Beijing at 11:30 p.m. on Thursday! It'll be a long flight but also very exciting. We tour around in Beijing for a few days and are still working out the details but plan to spend a couple of visits with Meili. Her 3rd birthday is on Sunday and we are hoping it works to bring her cake and have a little party. Our itinerary is a little messed up right now. They first told us we would be meeting her in her province on August 2......when we got the itinerary it has us down for picking her up on the 3rd and flying to her province on the 2nd. I questioned my agency and they weren't sure why the difference....
