Merry Christmas to all

Hope everyone is having a wonderful Christmas. We are winding ours up actually, it is midnight Christmas Day as I type this. Thought on this day I'd give all of you back home a glimpse of our new friends and diaper pals. On Christmas Eve, we all got together for a little bit, chewed the rag a bit and read the Christmas story. I sifted through pictures to find at least one picture of the families or at least portions of the families who are with us. The Pannells are in the previous blog entry. I currently am looking for a picture of the Swindlers and the Hiers. They actually split from us for a week but are now back with us in Guagnzhou.
Below is Elaine Cunningham with Noelle. Bob and their precious little three old Grace are not in the picture. This was on gotcha day

Fellow Arkansas natives Dixon family with Sydney and their newest Lydia. Grandpa and Grandma Jones are somewhere in the archives of photos. I'll post them later if I get a chance. Also on gotcha day

Found a picture of Luke Hiers with Mama. This little fella will brighten your day. He has the most contagious smile and it is always available.

The Blakefields with Esther. Huddle is about as easy going as they come while Gene reminds of my brother Jordan in some of his mannerisms. BEfore I leave, I've got to record Gene saying Esther's Chinese name, Xiao Pan. Lots of inflection. If I see him in twenty years, that's all he has to say.

Jeremy and Stephanie Wagner with Meilyn. Well, they are from TExas. You know, good things do come out of Texas. So meet the Wagners.

Kirk and Nina Falconer with their oldest Simon and their newest Stella. Spencer is always going around hollering "STELLA"
