Pictures of China

Hey there,

While I had a couple of minutes I thought that I would post some pictures of China. I am presently working on downloading video to our blog so you can see the amazing Great Wall.

Here is Jonathan looking out the window, which turned out to be his last look at his home country.David and I at Tienanmen Square with the Forbidden City in the background.

Here we are an elementary school in Nanchang. This is the dance class I was telling you about.

Here we are at a very historic Buddhist temple. The brother of the emperor that built the Forbidden City hid here for fear of his life.

Gotcha' Day

Here we are at the city park of Nanchang. Included with us is the other family that traveled to Nanchang to receive their daughter.

Have a wonderful day,

Who remembers Remingtons?

Hi All,

The other day I posted some country songs on our blog. You can hear them if you scroll down on our play list at the bottom. This reminded me of my single days with my also single friend Angie. On Thursdays a country bar and dance club called Remingtons ,which is no longer there, would have line dance classes at 6:00. Angie and I would slap on our boots and head to class. Then after class we would stick around, practice, and see who else would show up. Sometimes it was just she and I and then other times other people that we knew showed up.
I was remembering a time specifically where Angie and I went to Remingtons, but it was just she and I and honestly we were getting a little bored. Then we spotted a table of guys sitting across the way and thought we would go talk to them. We ended up talking for about an hour and then they asked us to dance. As we got off the stools I was shocked to notice that I was at least a head taller than all of the men at the table. Angie is 5'4" so they were perfect for her. Fortunately my partner was a fantastic two stepper and it turned out to be a lot of fun, but as I remember, we only danced once. The height issue was a little awkward.
There are times when I remember those days with fondness, but what is the old saying about selective memory. I think I remember only the fun times, but forget about the not so fun times.
Now that my life is richer I would like to take my David to the Electric Cowboy and create new memories of country music and two stepping.

Have a great day,
Jennifer
