Orphanage Visit

Well, it's been a busy few weeks. Here's a little video of how we spent our Saturday this week.



April helped organize a trip to an orphanage for mentally and physically disabled children. She managed to talk Rob into coming along and bringing his guitar. In all, we had about 30 volunteers, East Asian as well as American, which was good because some of these children need two people with them just to help them move.



We spent much of our time with this little girl who was born without an anus. She was about a year and a half old now and is doing well after her surgery. We were ready to take her home that day! It was hard to say good-bye to those precious little ones. We hope to be able to visit them often this year, bringing more friends who are ready to learn about and love those in need.

For Your Viewing Pleasure

Ladies and Gentlemen, aprilandrob productions is pleased to present:
"Proof that Rob is finally doing something about all the video and pictures saved on our computer"!!!!

Seriously, though, I'm trying to learn how to combine our videos and pictures into nifty videos like this, so we can save space on our computer. Not to mention it makes for much better reminiscing than sorting through file after file.

So here you have (I hope, this internet video thing still baffles me) a 15-minute presentation of our trip to Xi'an this past spring, including a visit to the famed Terracotta Soldiers. My favorite part is the slo-mo yo-yo guy at the park. (and yes, that was a shameless teaser to make you watch the whole thing).

Please leave us comments telling us what you think of it!
