Hard to believe just a few days ago Craig's parents took off back to the States. As often is the theme of our blog, we were so blessed to have them here for 2 weeks! :) (144) Had lots of fun- playing rummikub, going for walks, exploring new places in the city, trip to Xian!...So thankful for such great parents/grandparents! (145) Kids had a blast with them of course.
Saw the impressive Terra Cotta soldiers and also super exciting got to see sweet friends on our trip to Xian ;) (146) It was fun too that Hudson is old enough to enjoy the tourist spots- he loved the "terrifying soldiers" as he was calling them to begin with. G and I- on the other hand- spent a lot of time outside the exhibits there, which was sweet time with my girl. (147) Another thing I am so thankful for was my bioband! (motion sickness bracelet) (148) Worked so well on the flight there (Hudson got sick though)- and on the way back worked really well for him! We've ordered another one- WELL worth the $11- for me and H to get to avoid using the little paper bags...so exciting!
