Beijing - July 2014


We visited Beijing, China for a unique experience as 'surprise' guests on the CCTV show 'Waiting for Me'. We stayed at the Millennium Hotel Beijing which was beautiful and taped the show one afternoon after our arrival. The next few days we visited many sites including; Mutianyu Wall, Tian'anmen Square & Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven and Pearl Market. We had wonderful hosts and ate at the most amazing restaurants. Thank you CCTV, Jun Luo (teacher), and Ms. Zhou.

Lena turns FIVE!!!

We had two celebrations for Lena's 5th birthday. She chose to have an "Under the Sea" theme with mermaids and pirates. She had a great time at her home party with her family and neighborhood friends. We had a jumpy house, a treasure hunt, and a wonderful cake! Her school party at CMS was fantastic with her classmates and teachers. Thank you to everyone who helped make it so special!
