Train to Zhengzhou

-




Sunday February 21st 2016
    Today we started out with another wonderful breakfast in Beijing at the Jianguo Hotel.  We left for the bullet train station at 8:30.  We had a half hour drive to the station and waited for our 2.5hr train.  We enjoyed the view during our 305 km/hr train ride.  Once in Zhengzhou (Henan Province) we were met with a sign that said Jeff and Jim Bostrom.  Danielle is our guide while here picking up Jasper.  We were taken to our hotel and shown where to can find the stores we need.  We just snacked for lunch.  Power bars cucumber flavored Lays Chips…  We later wondered the mall and settled for a coffee at Kapiluwak Coffee.  After more wandering we went to a noodle restaurant called Master Kong Chef’s Table.  I had a Korean spicy beef noodle dish and dad had a beef and rice dish.  We picked up a few items for us and Jasper from Walmart and are ready for tomorrow.  We love you Jasper!!!  Less than 12 hours till you are in my arms.

Our precious Piper will be two weeks old tomorrow! So much has changed and yet she has slipped right into our family so perfectly. I will have to write more to tell you what has been going on in our home, but for now enjoy these photos I took of her this morning. I love the simplicity of her holding the pink carnation. So beautifully organic.

When we were first Married, Jeff's Dad would always ask us if we still love eachother...well we do. This weekend we are celebrating our 6 year anniversery of our first date! I had to show off what Jeff got me because it is so neat. He said it is to help me feed Cooper...but I know he wanted it for himself too. He is very sneaky...hehe. Anyway, I will be enjoying my new Eagle's Nest lounger for a very long time. (If you come to visit us I might let you try it out.)

Day 3: July 28

Today was THE day!  Miley Mengcong Bostrom’s Gotcha day!  We woke up anxiously at 5am and waited until 6:30 before going down to breakfast.  Breakfast was wonderful.  There were all kinds of food we had never had before and some that looked familiar like fruit, sausage, and bacon.   We had to wait until 10:30 until finally getting to meet Miley so we walked around the inside and outside of the hotel.  There is a lap pool that is amazing. We can’t wait to swim in it….maybe tomorrow.  We found a bakery that sells the cutest cakes in the shape of cars or cartoon characters.  We will probably buy one for Miley, because tomorrow is her birthday.  We were mainly trying to waist time… When it was finally time, our guide told one family member come outside and get your new child.  Well that wasn’t going to happen, Jeff and I both went with him….and….we….waited….again!  It was probably one a couple of minutes, but suddenly we saw three people with three babies walking toward th
