"Ni Hao" from Southern China

DSC_4953

After 22 hours of "un-eventful" in the air flying, we made it safely to Changsha! We can't believe that just three hours from us, is our precious Spicy Girl! And, in just three days she is going to be in this room looking at her Provincial City outside our 19th floor window! We are so excited!

In the meantime, we are going to take in the end of of the Chinese New Year Celebration. The Lantern Festival is on Sunday. My camera will be ready!

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your prayers. It is so humbling to know that we are being lifted up all over the world!

Please jump over to Sienna's site for more photos from the beginning of our China adventure!

Blessings,
Diana

P.S: Her Rubiness is doing fantastic at Camp H!

Woo HOOO! I am so thrilled you are all there safe and sound! Now all the fun begins. You have waited so long to get to this point. Relax, get caught up on sleep and prepare for your heart to burst open with more love for Sienna. We are all praying and waiting anxiously to see her in your arms:)

Love,
Kim and the family

Diana,
So glad you have arrived safely and it was "uneventful" which is always a great thing when traveling. The Pearl is amazing..still smiling after 24 hrs. of flight. How special for her to be a part of this incredible trip. You are all in my prayers! Ruby looks like she's enjoyed a taste of having 2 big brothers :)

I am so glad to hear you made it there safely and without incident. I was thinking of you all day Wednesday and yesterday.

I am off to check out Sienna's site to see more Rouse eye candy. I'm sure it'll include beautiful, happy Ainsley. Give the big sis a hug.

Love you~
Lisa

Hooray!!! :) So glad to see you're settled into your hotel already. Love Sienna's website and so glad your trip was 'uneventful' ...that's exactly what we'll be praying for, too!

I'm with Kim, use this time to relax (have a glass of wine!) and get all rested up for Sienna Day! I can't wait to see your photos of the Lantern Festival. How blessed you are to be able to take part in the final week of CNY! I've heard it's just beautiful the way they decorate and celebrate this big event... bigger than Christmas and NewYears in the States!

Counting down the hours to Sienna Day!!!

Love Ya,
~Tanya

Praying that the Lord will prepare hearts for tomorrow - that you will be knitted together immediately and that you will all feel His loving arms holding you as your family changes.
