We Made It To Hebei Province...


Our train ride was quite an adventure!!!
Trying to get 4 people plus 4 suitcase's, 4 carry-on and 4 backpacks on/off a train was crazy!!
We had 2 minutes to get all of these items off the train before the doors closed.  We had to push and shove to get on and off  the train.

We will be leaving our hotel at 8:00 am to travel 2 1/2 hours by van to Colin's orphanage. I promise I will post pics as soon as we return from his orphange.
Please continue to pray with us as we travel there and that Colin will feel comfortable with us.
Can't wait to hold/kiss our sweet little boy!!!!

I will check FIRST thing in the morning for pics!!!:). We took the train from Guangzhou to Hong Kong and it got so funny, we wished we could watch a video of the 2 of us with 3 kids, 4 suitcases, 4 backpacks, 2 carryons. Makes me tired just thinking back on it:)
Praying for you allllllll!

Praying for you all, especially little Colin, that he will feel comfy with his new family and bonding will happen quickly. I kept thinking about him today when I was at church. Seeing all the little toddlers made me think of him and what a huge change will take place in his life tomorrow (today for you). Love you all.
