China

As I type and get ready to go to bed, my oldest daughter is eating lunch after touring the Imperial Palace in Beijing, China.....













After her lunch, she will go to Tian Anmen Square and the Beijing Zoo to see the Pandas...














After her trip to the zoo, she will finish the evening off with a Duck Dinner.
At that point, my guess is she'll resort to the saltines and peanut butter we packed in her suitcase two days ago... :)

Miss you Haleigh, have an incredible time!!!

See me turning green over here? I'm so jealous! I hope my kids see the world. You're only young once. Then you get a mortgage.

ADORABLE little rap you have there - gotta love coffee!!

I have the BIGGEST BADDEST (wow, I've never typed that word before) notion to click on the little handicapped man down there, but I don't wanna wake Harry up to "k-m-y-h-u-p-m".

coffee

I have to take issue with something. Dave Ramsey... love him. usually. But, today... I got an email from him (not because we're personal friends but because we've paid to take his FPU class)... and he had the NERVE to say that coffee is not a necessity. it is a luxury. I'm contemplating my open letter to him. Something like this... Dear Dave, Although I appreciate all that you have done in your life and ministry, I have to take issue with one point. Coffee is not a luxury. How can I ask my husband to extend a special line item in our budget for Starbucks when you continue to claim that it is a luxury? Let me educate you on the value of my daily Starbucks .... First of all, it is research... when I get the necessary funds, I plan to open my own coffee shop, and it is vital to my financial peace that I complete the research needed for a successful coffee shop.

I had been promising her that we would go on a bike ride together for a few days. Why didn't I promise her a trip to Starbucks for a nice hot latte? So, we ditched a few responsibilities and went on a bike ride. But, I didn't have a bike. So, I was going to walk. She said I could borrow Abbie's bike. Except Abbie has the bike seat from the land down under - you know what I mean. And my rear was not meant to sit on that tiny thing. But, I rode it anyway. After we crossed the street, we started heading down the road and it was pretty nice for a couple minutes. Luckily, my dad lives 2 blocks away, so we had to stop there to say hi and to tell him that we are on a bike ride. Then, we headed back on our bike ride. We left my dad's and there is a slight hill. Emily got tired just-in-the-nick-of-time so I had to walk...
