Ethiopian Picnic

Yesterday the Ethiopian adoption support group here in Colorado held their annual picnic. We didn't make it last year because Fletcher was sick. I'm so glad that we went this year. It was lots of fun, great to get together with friends we already knew, meet other adoptive families and spend the day out in the sunshine. (Although it was REALLY hot!)

Fletch trying to cool down... Someone ran out and bought popsicles for all of the kids at some point.

Dad trying to rescue a wayward kickball...


The kids trying to get into trouble...

Felix chowing down on some watermelon...


Eventually we went over to the other end of the park where there was a little water play area. Here's Felix with Kaden and Oliver, who are the Matthews' boys. They're also with our agency. We met Lori and Kevin over a year ago now and went through some adoption training together. They're moving to Denver soon, so hopefully we'll get to see them more often!


Fletcher gave me some great blackmail shots for when he starts dating. He thought it was really funny to squat over the fountains and get his "business" wet. I'll spare you the inappropriate picture though.


And Miss Macy freezing her buns off. Don't worry, it was like 150 degrees out so she warmed up quickly. Thank goodness Dad took us for slushies on the way home!
