KC Vacation :)

Our sweet friends from Detroit, Kimberly and Aeson Leclercq, have been here this week. Thanks to their visit, we've had a real week of "vacation" here in KC. The weather has been great and we've been out and about with the boys. We got to know Kimberly and Aeson in Guatemala as she lived there for six months fostering Aeson. So it was a bit of a reunion week- we just were missing a few other faces from Antigua!! As you can see below, the boys didn't seem to skip a beat and had a great time...
We hit the zoo on Wednesday. I promise the boys were more excited than they looked in this picture....




We went to Jack's Stacks so Kimberly could have some KC BBQ. Then the boys admired the trains that run behind the restaurant.


We also hit Crown Center's Wizard of Oz exhibit and Fritz's. Luke Williams joined us for this outing- here they are following the yellow brick road!

Last night we got together with six other families who have all adopted from Guatemala. Here are the kids... what an adorable bunch. This picture is missing Paulo Harris. I didn't get one that had both him and Otoniel in the same picture- they were on the run (at least in this one some of the kids were looking!). We ate at El Cipote which is a "Central American cuisine" restaurant owned by a man from El Salvador and his wife from Guatemala so they have Guatemalan food on the menu. Deliciosa....

And a group hug to end the night.... I think Erick and Samuel are going to be lost without the constant playmate they've had all week!
