Engagement Pictures!

Thanks to our friend Serge we were able to get our engagement pictures done! 

Short note about Serge:  He decided to sell his stuff, pack ONE bag, and is traveling the world to serve people!  He's been in contact with organizations, ngo's, and people all over the world and is volunteering his time and skills (as an IT guy and photographer).  He stayed in Xiamen for a month and lived in David's living room, helping at the orphanage, and doing some IT work for different companies here.  Serge was such an encouragement to all of us and we are all very grateful for him.  As soon as he found out we got engaged, he quickly volunteered to take some pictures for us!

In China people do not do "engagement pictures."  When they see the pictures of Dave and I they are confused and ask, "Why didn't you do wedding pictures?"

In China, most people don't have a cermony, they just have a big banquet and lots of big extravagent pictures taken.  I'll work on getting some pictures and will post them soon to show you what I mean.
