  1. Marla,
    The hotel looks beautiful. Great planning on your part! Everybody looks like they are having fun. Everyone here is doing well and can't wait for you to come home so we can see all of you and meet precious little Sasha. I'm so proud of Jakey and Ava, they look like they are great at being big brother and big sister. Please tell them I miss them so much! I was really excited to read in an earlier post that you have been using your Chinese. The best way to learn a language is to hear it and speak it. I can't wait to brush up on my Chinese so I can speak it to Sasha Tian Tian. Right now, all I can remember how to say is Happy New Year. I don't want her to think her auntie has lost her mind.
    Have you used all that bug spray you packed? If not, save it for when you get home. Because of all the rain we have been getting here, we have some Jurassic Park sized mosquitoes! Miss you and love you!

  3. WOW! That hotel is so pretty. I can't believe you had breakfast next to a waterfall. That garden looks so amazing. Jakey, Ava, and Tian Tian look happy and relaxed. What about you? How do you feel?
