Last Weekend with Toma & Sandu

We had a great two weeks with Toma and Sandu.  We were sad to see them go.  The last weekend they were here they wanted to see the Capitol, the Science Center, and take one last shopping trip. :)  We also introduced them to S'mores and had a Kazakh meal they, (along with the other Kazakhs who were here with them), prepared at the farewell celebration.

The last time I was at the capitol was in 5th grade on a field trip.
I think I appreciated the architecture a little more this time!

The ladies and I
(I had trouble convincing them that I was not cold--that
the baby keeps me warm--they were always cold!)

The ladies were quite the statue posers :)

Campfire and S'mores 

In Kazakhstan, they only drink hot/warm drinks.  They couldn't
get over the fact that we let the boys drink ice water too.  Sandu
especially gave Ryan a hard time about it, so on their last night
here, Ryan made them take "shots" of ice water.  Cheers! :)
