More photos of China

This was outside where they make the fake Terra Cotta Warriors. I thought it was really interesting.

You could buy these incense and light them, and say a prayer. It was quite neat. My prayer was that we were all safe during our travels in China and that we all arrived home to the States safely! It worked!

Random street shot in Beijing.

Julia with cute panda.

Cute panda statue in Beijing.

Random lantern photos taken in China

These first four photos of lanterns were taken in Xi'an, October 2009.

I loved all the lanterns in China. These next 11 shots were taken in Chengdu, October 2009.

All the lantern photos below were taken in Shanghai, China, November 2009.

Xi'an, China

Is this little poodle cute or what? There was a news stand/store just near our hotel in Xi'an, and this little cutie belonged to the person working there. Julia always had to stop and see this cute little poodle and pick it up! More photos from Xi'an and other cities in China to come!

Michelle and Lance

Aren't Lance and Michelle just the cutest? These are a few photos I took of them for their Christmas cards, and since those were mailed out long ago, I'm now posting these photos. I ran pool party from the Totally RAD Actions first, and then Indie Jane's grunge. Does this look cool or what? Michelle likes her photos processed in a cool funky sassy way! It matches her personality!

Birthday Girl-10 year's old!!

Julia turned 10 on January 2. She was so excited to finally be in the double digits! She got a second piercing in her ears, that's it until she's an adult!!!!! She ended up having a reaction that set her lymph nodes off and had little lumps all over the back of her neck near the ears. We were both freaked out about the lumps until the doctor told us he thought everything would be okay.
