Another day in Fuzhou

















Today was another busy day. We went to another park on the Min River. It wasn't as big or pretty as the park yesterday. We then went to the Fujian Provincial Museum. It has some neat displays, on of which was two mummies. A couple from 700 B.C. It was kind of gross. They were floating in water and still had all the parts if you know what I mean. Anna fell asleep in the museum. We then went to a local mall and picked up some really neat wares from this area. I enjoyed the shopping...Scott not so much. He entertained Anna. We then had KFC for lunch. It was good, the mashed potatoes were not. We got back later to the hotel and Anna decided she wasn't going to take a nap. So yes we have been going since 6:30 with no nap. She has done better than I thought but she is getting cranky fast. Don't get me wrong, we wanted her to nap but she decided she wasn't going to. Hopefully that won't happen tomorrow. So that is what we did today. We are all tired. Enjoy the pictures.

The one on Daddy's shoulders needs to be put in a frame....precious! Scott, looks like someone has wrapped Daddy completely around her finger?!?! Girls are something else...
May God bless the three of you as you continue to explore Anna's birth country and learn one another. Love, love, love waking in the AM to see your photos!

Sounds like a busy day! The pictures of Scott and Anna are just precious. Little girls absolutely love their daddies. I overheard Rae talking to her little friend at a birthday party the other day, the conversation went like this:
Ellie: "How about you be the princess and I be the prince".
Rae: "No, MY Daddy is MY prince".
Very adorable! I hope that she and Scott are able to continue to bond...seems there is no problem there! I'm sure he will be a wonderful daddy to her (as he is such a wonderful husband to you). Love you guys. Keep posting, I check every morning! Love, CK

These pictures are just too much for words. The one on Scott's shoulders is priceless. It's easy to see that she has your number, Scott!!! Dad and I were just saying we will really miss these early morning updates every day. It has been wonderful being able to see her and some of her country trough your eyes and experiences. Maybe she will nap today. Love to all of you--
Mom and Dad (Anna's Grenny and Papaw)

I will have a picture of Anna on Scott's shoulders on my wall or desk. It is such a beautiful moment captured. Scott, she must feel like she is on top of the world for more than one reason!!

You all look so happy. PTL!!!!

Love and prayers,
