These shirts are what my parents started selling these shirts to raise money to bring Princess home! We had NO idea how far these would go and how well we would do! These are the new designs they just came out with! Tell me what you think! My Parents own a screen printing and embroidery so they made the shirts "out of house!" lol Just thought I would share these shirts!

By the way in Volleyball news we now have a record of 3-7- Ya not so good but were getting better! Hope you all are having a great week!

I am a terrible blogger!

I am a TERRIBLE blogger! I am SO sorry I have been SO slack! Let me update................... Let's start with my birthday!
September 20th- Got up that morning had Bojangles! Then My Mom, Nana, Anna Grace and I went to get a Manicure and pedicure! The we went to a few different stores and then to meet my Dad who was taking me to the mall! He took me shopping and let me go wherever I asked! Then he said "Lets go to Frankies and ride go-carts before we meet everyone at the Olive Garden! (YUM)
I was like "UM ok then" We go to frankies and start walking towards the go carts when I hear some people yell "SURPRISE!!!" I was freaked out and surprised! We then spent a few hours at frankies and then went to the Olive Garden to eat! It was great! No pix YET soon they will come! OH but I must say the best part of my birthday was when Nana let me DRIVE! I drove in my Dad's office parking lot! It was SO much fun! :) Anna Grace still thinks it is her birthday and when you ask her "Anna Grace whos birthday is it?" she says "It is Annaboos!" then walks away singing happy birthday to herself! SO cute!

Here is the not so fun part of my week-

September 24- I went to school very regular day- I went to volleyball practice and while we were running around the gym a girl accidentally ran into me- Our gym has these little storage doors under the stage that the cheerleaders were getting stuff out of for the game yesterday night- They left it open and I was running and when she pushed me over I was running to fast to stop- I ran right into the door and now knows what it feels like to fly! lol I got up and finished running that lap until I reached the coach- All I saw was a scratches all on my thigh- My coach told me to wash it off when I went into the bathroom i pulled my shorts up and there was a gash in it! I freaked out- We went to the nurse and they called my Mom- I didn't really cry- It hurt though! I just got back from the doctor and they cut the dead skin (eww gross I know) and they touched it to make sure there was no wood in it- It was very painful but at least it is not worse than it is! Sorry I don't mean to make this post all about me! I tried to add stuff about my beautiful mei mei!

Here is what I am thankful for this week:

• My family
• My leg is OK
• My Beautiful Mei Mei
• The t-shirt sales are going GREAT
• We are all healthy (knock on wood)
  
• My new phone
  
• Being on the volleyball team!

I am SO blessed! We sometimes don't realize just how blessed we are and we even at some point forget to be thankful for what we have- Here is a beautiful song by Josh Groban called Thankful! I love it!


I will post pix as soon as I can! Our laptop is messed up and my Dad deleted our pix on accident!! Pray we get them back soon!

Happy Birhtday to Me!!!

OK OK I know I am being cheezy but........................... Happy Birthday to me!

Here are some conversations I have been having with Miss Anna Grace and some things she has started to say-

On Tuesday we were having our 1yr homestudy and right before the lady came Anna Grace took her glasses off and wrapped them around her ankles and started walking around with them like that- Here is the conversation between her and my Mom-

Mom- Anna Grace where are your glasses?
AG- On my feets
Mom- No Ma'am! (gently pops her hand (not hard enough to hurt) )
AG- (In verry pitiful voice) OH Mama you need ta be gentle with the baby!
I thought this was quite funny! My OH My what else can she say??!?!?!?? lol

Anna Grace- Hey SISSY- I need yo ipo*
Me- I'm listening to it baby you can in 1 minute
AG- (waits 10 milliseconds) OK it been minute now her turn! (she constantly talks in 3rd person)
Me- (Hands over ip*d)
AG- OH tank you sissy tank you
Me- Your welcome
AG- (puts earphones in her ears and starts dancing)

On her birthday in bank w/ Mom-

Happy Birthday Princess

Today is Anna Grace FuLai's (or Princess as you all know her) 2nd Birthday- I am SO sad! I can't believe how time has flown! She is SO big!

Dear Princess,
You are my life- I don't know what I would do without you. I can't imagine going through a day without you- I know I haven't gotten to be with you much since volleyball started and I really hate that- I hope you know how much I love you and miss you during the days- You can ask ANYONE I know you are ALL I talk about. I can't believe we have had you for 15 months- It doesn't feel like it at all it feels like forever. I hate I wasn't here this morning when you opened your gifts and It was hard for me not being there. I wish time would freeze and you would be 1 forever but sadly today that changed you are no longer my 1 year old sister you are my 2 year old sister. :'( It makes me SO sad to think about how much you are growing up. I can't believe how much you have changed before my eyes. I hope you had a wonderful birthday! I'll love you until the end of time. One thing I know that won't change is you will always be MY Mei Mei.
Happy Birthday Princess,
Sissy

Happy Birthday Meighan Fu

Look at how little they were (they still are little but look it makes me sad :[ )
I would like to wish one of Princess' Xiushan Sisters and very best friends, Meighan a Very Happy 2nd Birthday!!! kjhasdhjkkhsdkhc kdilsdkjsd==fmsddiuikjsd- I just let Anna Grace write you a Happy Birthday note Meighan- We love you and hate we couldn't be there with you! Anna Grace and I miss you SO much! Princess asks to see you everyday! I hope you have a GREAT day! Love you and Miss you!
Ashton and Anna Grace FuLai

Prayers Please

Please Pray for Princess she doesn't want to keep her glasses on- She rips them off and throws them down or pulls at them- Please Pray she will keep her glasses on and not continue to take them off I can't imagine how it must feel to her to have them on all day but please pray she will start keeping them on again- Thanks for all your prayers-

Ashton

I cannot believe in 6 days Anna Grace FuLai will be 2! I am SOO sad! :o( She is growing up WAYY to fast-

Princess has a new outfit!

Well Mema made Princess Annarella a new outfit! Is it not beautiful! Mema you did a GREAT job!! THANK YOU!
On Sunday I got Princess dressed and we went outside and snapped a few pictures! Is this outfit not absolutely precious??!?!?!?!!? She was laughing at her "Hayney" in the pictures SO I got a few good ones~


Here is what we did this weekend:
On Saturday we got up got decked out in our Clemson gear and at about 10:45 we left for the game- On our way there we stopped in Commerce and went into a few stores- We then went to AppleBees and ate some lunch it took FOREVER!!! lol It was torture. We left their and headed to the Georgia Dome- We went into Centennial Park and played the games they had set up! It was a lot of fun! Princess stole the show we had Alabama players coming up to us saying "I don't care if she is Orange she is precious!" She loved the game and would YELL "Go Tigguuuurs, WIN WIN WIN FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT! YAY TIGUUURRS!!" lol It was PRECIOUS! She looked precious in her Clemson cheerleading outfit and her pigtails with BIG Orange and Purple Bows! Here are a few pix!


Sunday:
On Sunday we were DEAD tired from the game- We didn't do much all the pictures I have are of Princess Above

Monday: We didn't do much we just relaxed- My Mom, Nana, Princess, and I all went shopping we got lunch and then we went to Ross, AC Moore, and Marshalls (You all might not care but they have VEra BradleY on sale there!!) My Mom also got a CricUT at AC Moore! We are going to have some fun! The best thing about it was it was on Sale!!!

Hope you all had a GREAT weekend! and are having a great Week!!!
