Last night in Nanchang.





Well, this is officially our last night in Nanchang. Tomorrow we will be taking Alexa away from everything that she has ever known. It makes me kind of sad to leave, but she will have a great life back home in the states. We will also be leaving our guide James who was the same guy we had here in Nanchang when we got Aleia. He is so wonderful. He has played such a big part of our getting everything official with Alexa and Aleia and has shared such a wonderful experience with us. I will be sad to see him go. We asked him if he could go to Guangzhou with us. No luck. ha, ha.

We went to the police station today to get the girls passports. What fun!!! She can come to the US now. Whew. After that we shopping for porcelain. This province, Jiangxi, is famous for it so we went and got some souvenirs to take home.

This will be our last post here in this city. We fly out to Guangzhou tomorrow (sat) at 2:00 pm (which is 2:00am for you). This city is very americanized with tons of americans with asian girls. Yes you all at Ferris Chevy, they are going to take over the US. ha,ha. We take an oath there on Tuesday about bringing the girls back to the states and promising never to hurt or abandon them. Then we fly home on Thursday morning here which is Wednesday night at home. We miss you all so much. Thanks for making comments on the blog. We love to read them. Love, Lisa, Bob, and Alexa

P.S. the car that I am posting is some kind of a Chevy. Maybe an Aveo?!?

I finally went ahead and setup a goggle account because I couldn't leave comments for you or Kari and Erich.

Alexa is so cute and always is cheerful or smiling. She has mounds of hair which I can see you already are putting bows in. The girl I work with who is from China could't get over the amount and type of hair she has. She looks like a normal one year old but you mention she is tiny. Pictures don't always tell you everything.

Hope the rest of your trip is as nice as what you have had so far. I know you probably haven't gotten in the real "spending" areas yet, so please hold yourselves in check.

This is Traci's aunt barb.

Just wanted to let you know we think Alexa is beautiful too. She has the sweetest face and I love her hair. Aleia is going to be so excited when you get home. Have enjoyed your posts.

Hope you enjoy the rest of your China visit. Can't wait to see all 3 of the girls (and Aleia)(and Jack, the celebrity) when you are all home and settled.

We are so happy for all of you.
