Heading Over Austin

Since David and I weren't able to make it to Austin during the Mother's Day weekend, we postponed it to the Memorial weekend. I liked it because we got to spend more time with Amy, Kendall, and Chloe. We packed, mailed out the check to the Beijing church, had a good breakfast, and we were on our way to Austin! The weather was beautiful and hot. We learned several Children's songs from the CD. David knew many of them already. We made good time to arrive Austin in 3 hours and 15 minutes. We bought some diapers for Chloe after we got there.

It was a joy to see Chloe. She is more and more beautiful each every day. Her big brown eyes scanned everywhere in front of her. Amy said she just learned to use her hands and feet. She is still exploring and processing! We had lunch at a nice Mexican restaurant. Then we headed over to an outlet mall to buy the sleeper for Chloe - she outgrew her outfit already! It was so hot and dry in Austin. We stayed the rest of the day at home: playing with Chloe, talking, and eating.

Late at night, David suddenly remembered that we hadn't told everyone in the Sunday class that we were out of the town tomorrow. Nobody was available for teaching on Sunday. We began to make calls and found out none of our class members was able to make it to the class - it worked out perfect!
