PEARL RIVER CRUISE

Last night was the Pearl River Cruise. We have been on the cruise twice before, but it is such a BEAUTIFUL and relaxing time, that we didn't want to miss it. In the past, we have eaten dinner on the cruise, and let me tell you, the food was quite gross!!! This year, all of the families in our travel groups opted to order Papa John's pizza instead!!!! Molly Kate and Callie Beth really enjoyed the cruise. They loved it when we went out on the upper deck, and the wind was whipping through their hair. Everything is SO beautiful. Many of the buildings are lit, and there are boats passing by with bright lights. I don't remember the name of the tower, but it is the 3rd tallest building in the world. The lights on it are just unbelievable!!!! Eiley Joy enjoyed the cruise, too. I am including a couple of pictures where she is smiling really big. The REASON she is smiling like that is because one of our adoption friends, Sarah Lynn is holding her, and she has a hold of Sarah Lynn's hair. The harder Sarah Lynn tries to get her to let go of her hair, the harder Eiley Joy laughs!!! She is a STINKER!!!! I am also including a picture with the four little ones from Shanghai Healing Home. The little girl on the right in the man's lap isn't from SHH, but she is an adopted sister of the one on the left who IS from SHH. (By the way, those two girls are children number 10 and 11 for this gentleman and his wife---the 6th and 7th adopted from China. His wife couldn't come because she is 7 months pregnant!!!)

Eiley Joy was able to get down and move around some on the boat. She is like a streak of lightning, though, and is hard to catch. She doesn't walk---she RUNS!!!! She LOVED the balloon animals, but she kept trying to chew on them and I was just sure she was going to pop them!!! We had three tired little girls by the end of the cruise, but a good time was had by all!!!!
