Flashback Fingers: Beijing Edition

I know I'm way behind over here. Our niece was in town for a week and this blog isn't the only thing that went undone during that time. You should see what gets stuck to the bottoms of my feet every time I walk across the kitchen floor! On second thought, you don't want to see that, trust me.

So while I scrub the floors and wash the dirty sheets, here are some photos to look at. A little info: my parents, uncle, brother, and sister-in-law recently returned from a fabulous trip to China where my brother married his wife all over again, Chinese style! I'm miserable that I missed it but determined to go along on their next trip. They sent tons of pictures and some little gifts for us and the girls. I won't show you all their travel pics - if you know them, you'll have to hit them up for the link - but I will share a few and some shots of the girls opening up their loot.


The whole gang in Beijing, including Jasmin's parents and brother


There were lots of photos of food!

Earl is very interested in Maggie's teapot.

Bracelets and teapots - Everything came in very pretty boxes.


Katie likes this red silk purse.

Maggie decided the red teapot was Kate's and the gold teapot was hers.

Some coin banks shaped like a Chinese prince and princess
