we're back from china!

we're back from our two-week vacation to china and hong kong! it was an amazing experience, for sure! we have quite a few pictures to share, which i will do soon, but just wanted to post and let everyone know that we are home safe and sound, praise God. the last few days and nights have been pretty terrible, with all of us up and not able to sleep even at 3 am in the morning (ugh!), but we are slowly working our way back to u.s. time. to keep ourselves awake on our second day back, we headed out to get our christmas tree and decked our halls so that we are now ready to celebrate Jesus' birthday!

our first day in beijing, at the Temple of Heaven (Tian Tan)

our last day in hong kong, all of us inside one small hotel room

with ALL of our luggage (Packed Sardines)
