Solid travel date!!

We got an e-mail last night confirming our official travel date! We are leaving the 26th of June. We will miss the Daw family reunion this year which is a bummer - but getting our little caboose will be well worth it. We are busy getting the rest of our paperwork and visas ready, but there really isn't much left to do but pack right before we go. We will be gone two weeks, till the 10th of July; the kids are all staying at friends houses. We will go to Beijing and then Shaanxi to get Mason; after that we go to the consulate in Guangzhou. Back to Beijing and then home! Lots of traveling - Jim is hoping to try many Chinese dishes while we are there, and of course I will take every opportunity to shop, mostly for Mason though! We will post updates and pictures while we are there, it will probably be the only trip to China we will ever take so we will take as many pictures as we can!
