THE WHOLE CLAN!


OUR EXTENDED FAMILY AT OUR FAMILY CAMPING TRIP
(click on the picture to enlarge it)

We made up T-shirts for our extended family with Chinese characters denoting everyone's relationship to our new children. Annie had lots of fun finding the correct Chinese terms and typing in the characters. All our family were great sports to wear the shirts and pose for countless pictures!


HERE IS ANOTHER PICTURE OF JUST OUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY


The characters are a little easier to see here. You can probably make it bigger by clicking on it. Mine says, "Ma Ma" or Mom, Dana's says "Ba Ba or Dad" Annie and Rebbecca are Jie Jie, big sister, Tim and Jonathan are Ge Ge, big brother and Daniel is Di Di, little brother.

It is fun to wonder just where in the family the new children will go and if Daniel will indeed continue to be the Di Di, because there is a small possiblity that he will be a Ge Ge :-)

Great T-shirts! : )

Annie- about getting a picture header at the top of a blog- Just make the kind of graphic you want and upload it to something like photobucket, then in your blog go to settings and put the URL of the photo in the description part-(not title) It should work, although I know it doesn't work with all the templates, I had to change mine to get it to work. Good Luck!

Lori is grown, and already a mommy with #2 on the way, Michael is a college student at Notre Deme de Namur University (age 21) and Miss Kyra Grace is 2 years old and the joy of our lives. Like you, we wanted siblings, and so we are adopting Harper Faith and Taelor Hope. They are 7.5 months old. Blessings to you! I hope yuo get that call SOON! (BTW, there are two little boys at Cathwell right now.. 3.5 and 6 months old.. Florida Home Studies has their file.. they're adorable brothers.. but you wanted a girl and a boy? Well, just thought I'd mention it..)

Love,
Val
