Happy Thanksgiving!

Olivia sums up our Thanksgiving Message on her bib!I hope you all are having a great Turkey Day! Instead of turkey we had KFC chicken, not quite like home but not too bad, we even had their mashed potatoes and gravy. Sam said he missed having pumpkin pie, I told him he might be able to sweet talk Aunt Suzie into making one for him for Christmas Dinner. :o) We actually had a nice day, we have so much to thank God for, his blessings ever abound.

A quick update on Barron, his appointment brought a mix of news. The cysts have greatly improved, but the his pancreas has another stone, which preventing the hole from healing. When he goes back up on Dec 6 to have the stint removed (which is working) the Dr. will try to break down the stone, however he fears that he will not be able to get to it, in this case he will have to surgically remove a portion of the tail. Please pray that this will not be the case, Barron has suffered long enough, he needs complete healing. God is good and gracious, and we beleive that all is in his hands, we also know that none of this will go to waste and his glory will be honored. Please pray that Barron will experience the gift within the pain, whatever that gift maybe.

Olivia had another full day running through the Yellow Crane Tower. She fell at one ponit and then it the ground with her hand saying "Bad floor, making me fall!" It was a beautiful day and we actually saw some sunshine through the haze of pollution, it makes me sad to know that the Chinese people who most of them go without so much also miss out on the simple pleasure of the sun's warm rays.

We headed back to the large mall and then onto the pool, where I joined n the fun, darn I don't have any pictures to share about that episode! :o) We are heading to Guanzhou where we are looking forward to its comfort and warmth. I'm going to try and get some more picts on before we leave, otherwise I will post again when today when we get to the White Swan, I had a great connection and could even see our blog!

Love you all, and give your kiddies extra hugs and kisses on this wonderful Thanksgiving Day!
