The First Week

Ni Hao! God has been so awesome to us. We finally arrived in Asia after our 30 hour trip. Now being day 4 Phil and I are just able to sleep through the whole night and today is my first day without a nap. We arrived at 2am Friday morning. It was such a blessing to see not one happy face to meet us at the airport but four. Josh, Linds, Lily, and Cade all stayed up to pick us up. They had some friends babysit the three youngest (Hadassah, Viv, and Olivet). It has been such a joy since we arrived. Every day I wake up to 5 beautiful tiny smiles. You would think sharing an apartment with 9 would be tight but it has been anything but. The past few days we have been sleeping, playing with kids, Linds, a friend, Karis and I went for a 4.5 mile run through the city, took a bus to green lake, and had job meeting. 
Here are some picture to document our travel and stay so far.
