More Fun Memories From China 2006

In light of my recent post about Nai Nai's attempt to get a visa, I thought I would post a few pics of her ,and some of William's other family members in China. We spent three months there during the summer of 2006 and we hope that someday we can make more regular visits. Of course, we also hope they will be able to visit us here. Anyway, these are some fun memories and if you're interested in more pics from that trip, look under my older posts because I posted several China pics in another post, as well. Enjoy!

Nai Nai was teaching Abraham how to make jiao zi (pot stickers) and he decided to take matters into his own hands.

If you look closely, you'll see that he is holding a chicken nugget and she is holding a cheeseburger. We definitely "converted" her (at least in the fast food area). The kids and I would convince her to go to McDonald's more often than I care to admit here.

See any resemblance here? And who is that cute, bald little girl?!

Abraham gets introduced to mah zhong with several of William's aunts.

This is us with William's parents, his older brother, wife, and their daughter.

Here is Annabelle with her Ye Ye, visiting one of the uncles in the countryside.

Three generations of Qians. Could Ye Ye be any prouder?

Nai Nai, her Mother (who passed away last year) and me.
