insects
Ariel needs at least 17 insects for her biology class. If you would all please begin carrying a ziplock bag so that you will be prepared if you encounter a great specimen. Thanks.
You are too funny! We will be camping this weekend so if I see anything interesting I will KILL it and bring it to you...OR does it have to be alive? Cathy
You know the Civil War Guys? We're sorta like them except we do the Middle Ages and Renaissance. It's kinda like a Ren-Faire, except we're not a "spectator sport."

This is Simon who will turn 11 this spring.
2011
This boy with the adorable dimple, lives in Xinjiang, which is somewhere near Kazakstan and Mongolia. He will turn 10 before we meet him.
Fall 2010
2011
Last year we added two more children to our family ! We brought home Dominic, the little boy we first met when visiting Cheryl in 2006 in Yunnan and also Rosemary, a little girl who lived in Guangxi. Nellie, Rosie and Dominic will soon turn 12 so we have virtual triplets and Andy ,9.
We have had such fun with our new kids, that we are going to China for a fourth time! This year we will bring home two boys ages ten and eleven, who will fit nicely (we hope) in the middle of our kids. They currently live in Xi'an,Shaanxi and Shehezi, Xinjiang. I thought we went traipsing all over China the other times we were there, but those trips will totally pale next to the amount of country we will cover this time. I know Someone must be laughing at the way He is stretching this 'reluctant traveler'.
Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Lord whom you serve. C0l 3:23,24
2014-Jerry and I have been married 38 years. We are currently parents of 15, and soon to be 17, children. The first 8 are self supporting adults :) with only Ariel , the youngest of our first nine, still in college and living at home. After raising our first 9 children we thought we were finished until God took us on a serendipitous adventure that led to the adoption of 6 more children, 5 from China. That story is covered at andyweiwwright.blogspot.com .

When do you need them? Aren't you in Hotlanta? If I find something spiffy, I might be able to mail it to you.
