Flight from Xiamen to Shanghai (2 hrs), to Washington DC (14hrs), to Indianapolis (2hrs), drive to West Lafayette (30 minutes). We we're so glad to see Sharon and Travis in the airport and pumped to see the rest of the family the next morning!
We spent a week in Lafayette, Indiana with family (everyone joked that we arrived earlier for Sharon's wedding to help with preparations than we did with our own wedding earlier in January).
Here are some of our highlights from our time there:
|
Lunch date with family at Olive Garden! |
|
Playing with the foxtail ball in the park This shows our height different... just remember we're standing on a hill :) |
|
Thank you Travis and Sharon for introducing us to the card game "Curses!" My new favorite game! The game that made me laugh so hard I was crying.
|
Travis, my new brother-in-law, grilled out and made a huge dinner for all of us |

Took Debbie out for her birthday (enjoying our first US hamburgers while being back) |

Loved getting to go on a walk and explore more around Lafayette with Debbie |
