Ping Yao

We spent a wonderful day in Ping Yao.  It was such a nice break from the City Life. Ping Yao is an ancient city full of beautiful temples and rich heritage. Many of the families living there are direct descendants of the Ming and Ching(its spelled with a Q actually) Dynasties. People still travel from all over to pay respect to their "gods" It's very interesting.( Graven image has taken on a whole new meaning.) The architecture is gorgeous . The people are adorable. The food was amazing. It was one of the highlights of our time here in Taiyuan. Liam and Steve had a lot of fun with their new wooden swords. I think Liam thought it was real. He was afraid of the dogs there at first but once he got his sword he was armed and dangerous! If a dog would come close to him he would swing his sword and say Hiya!! and they would run:-) He is definately a character. 



Today I got my first voluntary kiss from my sweet little man. My heart nearly burst. He took my face in his hands and kissed me on the lips. It just doesn't get any better than that. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. That is the greatest blessing ever. 

Today is absolutely gorgeous! We're heading down to the park for some fun! We love you all and miss you! Talk to you tomorrow! Jen
