We went to Gatlinburg this weekend to reunite with our China travel group. We have not seen them since we left China 3 1/2 years ago. Madeline was soooo excited to see her “China friends” as she called them:). Madeline is usually very slow to warm up to people when she first meets them or has not seen them for a while but she jumped right in on Friday evening.
We had a wonderful time catching up and also meeting the new additions to our families. Three families have returned to China to bring home brothers and sisters and three more including us are going back:)
What a wonderful time for Madeline and your family!!! LOVE the two pics of red couch photo now and then~ adorable! You did GREAT with all your photos!!! LOVE them all! SO wish we could have a reunion with our families!!! In time maybe.
Blessings!
XOXO
Oh Paige, what precious photographs of such a special reunion! What a blessing for all of you, but especially sweet Madeline and her "China Friends"!
Ummmm, John David really looks like he'd enjoy a little brother, too…just sayin' :)!
These pics bring back wonderful memories. We spent Christmas in a log cabin above Gatlinburg!
So grateful your family had this time to treasure with your special friends.
(((Hugs)))
Aww – I really can see some similar features in Madeline and Sara Helen! What a precious, precious reunion of some beautiful China babies!
