Easter






We awoke to the beautiful Bamberg Church Bells at 5:30 am on Easter Sunday, but only after being awoken by Mia at 4:00am, 4:30am, and 5:00am respectively due to excitement of the arrival of the Easter bunny! She was so excited :). The previous afternoon, we decorated the eggs, and she enjoyed her little Easter Egg hunt with the help of her brother and Sister, and her friends Calye and Harrison. They seriously celebrate Easter here, with everything closing for; Good Friday, Easter Sunday, and Easter Monday (you definitely need to plan ahead grocery-wise :-)). 3000 citizens attended the 5:30 am "stations of the cross" walk that overlooked the city - I did not attend, but it sounded incredible. A nice day!

Love the Gotcha Day and Easter pictures. It is a shame you all were not able to attend the church services since it will probably be the last Easter you will be in Bamberg. Mia has grown more beautiful and has lost the "baby" look. I know she has been a blessing to your family. She will realize some day how blessed she was when you all flew to China and brought her to America. Thanks for the pictures. Have a wonderful weekend. Hugs, gp
