Summer in China - Probably Moving in June

Looks like we are rescheduled to go to China in June, hopefully the week after school is out (the week of June 15). We'll keep you posted as we know more.

Silver Lining....

Every cloud has a silver lining.....The benefits to being delayed in our trip to China....

10) We had a relaxing Christmas and lots of fun in the snow.

9) We had a fun 2 weeks at Disneyworld...Did you know that we plan to see all of the Disney parks before the kids are off to college (or sooner!)?

8) Our paperwork and stuff is even more organized than we could hope for.

7) We have donated loads of stuff and furniture that we no longer need.

6) Our bathroom will soon be painted a sunny yellow.

5) We don't have to bring all our winter clothes on the airplane - they can go in the air shipment.

4) Kiana got to play basketball one more year and both kids will get to play flag football before we leave.

3) We have more time to learn Chinese (we need it).

2) We've had more time to spend with our favorite yellow lab, Chimay.

1) Debi had a mini family reunion with her family. Dad, Mom, Debi and sisters, Laurie and Katie, spent the weekend in their hometown, Ukiah. They also visited with Debi's Grandmother, Aunt Katie and brother-in-law, Ron. Lots of fun and laughter!


Maybe we'll have another 10 benefits before we leave. The latest news is that it will probably be early summer.....but nothing definite yet....
