Red Couch

Today we did the famous red couch pictures here at the White Swan. This is Maya getting ready to go to get her picture taken. This is probably as frilly as anyone will ever see her so take a good look. Aimee, one outfit was about all we could do. We may try tomorrow to get her in your outfit.


This is the family shot. It really didn't turn out too bad???


These are our guides Jocelyn and Kathy. What wonderful ladies these two are. They have been our strength and held our hands through some though times. Jocelyn gave Maya a little talking to in Cantonese and she hasn't been the same since. That is a good thing. We could not have done this without these two fine people!


These are all of the Yangchun girls in our group. I don't think I've ever seen a prettier bunch of tiny girls. L-R Mia, Elizabeth, Maya, Ella and Kaytee Beth.


Me and Maya and Laura and Ella. Our bestest buds on this trip. Also great hand holders and supporters during some trying times. We will miss the Lazars so much after this trip and we see many visits to Atlanta in our future. We hope they see some visits to West Virginia for them too.


This is all of the 10 families in our travel groups. A great bunch of folks all with beautiful new daughters. Missing from this picture is Nieve, Jemma and Martin.


All of the new girls except Nieve. She's got a bit of a cold and was sleeping. Every one of these girls are going to loving homes with exceptional parents. We are all so lucky...girls and families!
It's no easy task getting 10 little girls to cooperate for a picture. This is the best of about 10 pics that Mike took.
Good night from Guangzhou...only 1 more night after tonight. We've already started packing!
