family on their way!

Today is a big day in our household! We've got family coming to town! Now, if you lived somewhere "normal" like, for example, America, family coming to visit wouldn't be so news-worthy. But when you live in China, this is big stuff. Matt's sister and brother-in-law, Krisanne and Paul, arrive this afternoon. And..... his parents arrive tonight!! 4 visitors!!!

[Thanks to my parents recent visit, my girls know exactly what to expect from a grandparent visit and they are READY!]

I am especially excited that Krisanne and Paul (who have been traveling in Asia and spent last night in Kuala Lumpur) arrive in the afternoon. Because of flight schedules, folks arriving from America do not get to our city until really late (usually a little before midnight). So the girls have never been to the airport to welcome visitors. But not this time! All four of us are heading to the airport to meet Krisanne and Paul. Don't worry, I'll be toting the camera (of course!) so I'll get some pictures.

If your girls are anything like Caroline and Will, they will be mesmerized by airplanes and talk about them for days! Have fun with your visitors!
