Christmas Day!!
















It's Christmas Day in China!!





There are Christmas trees, lights and Santa Clauses everywhere! Last night on Christmas Eve, it was like Times Square here on Shamian Island. The street was packed with people and it was very lit up!





We had a very nice dinner with our group at a Tai restaurant and then walked around the streets a bit. Sophia even ate duck!





This morning the babies had their medical exams. Miss Alena came in at 19 lbs!! They also had the "red couch" photo taken in their traditional chinese outfits. Alena was not having it unless I was behind her holding her. Sophia also wore a dress and I put her hair up in a bun with a fancy chinese hair ornament. She looked beautiful.





We bought Sophia her own China tea set and jade chopticks set for our Christmas here in China and we purchased gifts to put away for Alena for when she is older.





Enjoy the pics and your messages are awesome. We wish everyone a very Merry Christmas with your loved ones. Miss you all.





Love,





Jenni

Merry Christmas you guys! It is Christmas Day here with gloomy weather. Not cold enough to snow! Grace and I continue to bond, along with the cats. You guys look wonderful all together. This experience will be something you will cherish forever! We miss you all and hope that you have a safe trip home! Can't wait to see you!

Love, Tracy, Bernie, Lars & CJ
