Summer Vacation: June 23-July 14
Thanks to God’s provision through Uncle Sam’s rebate checks, we were able to spend three short weeks in China with Kristin, Kevin & family. Many priceless memories were made, many of them because of these little ones.

Summer time means ice cream!
Kai’s ice cream of choice was… guess what!

Some side benefits were seeing the terracotta soldier burial grounds and museum – incredible!
The Great Wall.
And the Summer Palace.
Words to describe China: huge, people everywhere, fireworks, smog, friendliness, noodles, mysterious, history, development, ingenuity. A wonderful time with family!
