Hong Kong

Michael has done quite a bit of research over the last couple of years and has been accepted to present in some pretty awesome places.  When we found out he was accepted in Hong Kong we both agreed it was a once in a life time opportunity so we had to go.  We were so grateful that Kellie and Robert were willing to come hold down the fort with our crazy crew.

Hong Kong was amazing, but VERY different than any place either of us have ever been to.  We did some touring, ate some interesting cuisine, visited some tourist attractions, and found some breathtaking hikes which was the highlight for me.   

A view from Aberdeen, a fishing village
We visited Big Buddah
And saw a traditional Buddhist monastery 
And these were just some of the views from our hikes

This little calf followed us for quite a while


 The kids were happy as larks back at home with Nana and Papa.   I'm pretty sure we missed them more than they missed us.   I was so thankful for the recaps of their fun while we were away and these were just some of the pictures we got. 

Kirby even got some extra loving with lots of runs and extra treats :)  
Cool man Luke and Nana
Ganging up on Papa
Checking on the neighbors
Papa and his fan club
Our kids are so blessed with awesome grandparents
It was a blast being away with Michael but I was very happy to be back on U.S. soil when we returned and I couldn't get back to our babies fast enough.  They all came to pick us up from the airport even though it was well past bed time and this mama couldn't have been happier!
