I just wanted to thank everyone for the comments on the site so far. It really means a lot to know how many people are watching out for us. I promise to try and answer some of the questions being asked if not while still here then when we all get back to […]
is sleeping in our room right this very minute
I’ve left Wendy and Betsy taking a nap after a very long and trying day to sneak down here (website) and bring everyone up to date. Sorry for not posting yesterday, but it was a bit hectic to say the least.
We were […]
to go and get Betsy Ye!

BTW, here’s our hotel. It has a *huge* jade ship in the lobby just like the peabody does along with a giant Easter bunny display. Easter is oddly enough, quite popular here. The stewardess on the train over gave out little chocolate easter eggs and wished us happy easter. Wendy […]

You’ll have to forgive the weird spelling and […]
Well, we made it after all, and right on time to boot. Unfortunately, it’s been really difficult finding internet access for keeping this site up to date. The hotel has it in the room at a decent rate ($15USD/night), but you have to provide your own computer. They will rent you one […]
Northwest has a rockin’ website. Here, for example, is our flight schdedule.
Wendy and I got the chance to see our daughter’s picture (see previous post) today plus find out a little about her. She was named Huan Ye Mao (after the orphanage) and was born on Christmas Day, 2003, which will make her a little over one year old right […]
After almost two years of waiting, we’ve *finally* gotten a referral for our daughter, Betsy Ye Nations!
