Tomorrow is the day!

Our first visitors from home will be getting in late tomorrow night. My mom and her friend, Tina, are joining us for two fun-filled weeks in Beijing. I am so excited to have someone from home here for a little while. It will also be fun to do all of the touristy things that Theresa and I have not really gotten into doing yet. I have a Subway map, a list of sites and how to get there, and some useful things to know while here all ready for mom and Tina. It is a bummer that I have to work while I am here. I wish I could be off and hang out with them. But then again spending two straight weeks with my mom will probably be a bit of a hassle so maybe it is best that we have some breaks in between seeing each other. Be prepared for some really excellent blog posts as we have a lot planned over the next two weeks!

Here is the last time I saw my mama-

My last dinner in the states!
