Consulate Appointment and Dinner Cruse

We had to be up really early this morning, and meet in the hotel lobby at 7:45.  We left headed for the US Consulate.  Our appointment was at 8:30 sharp. Wellllll, the bus broke down about half way there.  We were stuck in the middle of the road (literally) for about 30 minutes.  They sent a new bus and we were on our way....just a little late.  We took our oath and submitted all of our paperwork. Sorry, no cameras were allowed :( Hannah's VISA should be ready tomorrow afternoon!!!! (one big step closer to going home, yay)

All of the adoption families met in the lobby for a group pic.  
We dressed the kids in traditional Chinese dress.  
They were all precious.

My China Doll playing with her China Doll :)
(P.S.  Kaka, I bought you a dress just like Hannah's :)
Deacon, you even have a Chinese outfit too.

This is sooo a "Hannah look"
.....like ok Mama, that's enough :)

Tonight we went for a Dinner Cruse.  It was so beautiful to see the city at night.
 

 We went up on the top deck to take in the sights.  
Hannah thought it was hilarious with the wind blowing on her face. :)

LOVE Y'ALL!!
