Spring Break continued....

Here are a few more highlights from our trip back "home".


Tuesday Austyn and I took Stephen to the local Korean restaurant since we do not have anything resembling one in our small city. He managed to eat until he was sick. Poor baby. He was in heaven. I have really grown to love not only the Korean culture, but the cuisine as well. On the way out the door we purchased a big package of pickled radishes and Stephen Baby (his new name for himself) was all smiles. Once they were opened..we had to purchase an air freshener. P-U! From there we swung by the adoption agency to meet a few of my co-workers that had not met the radish eater in person. Naturally, he wrapped each one around his little finger and was just a doll.


When evening fell, we found ourselves visiting with Aunt Mary and Madison and Hampton, affectionately known as Mae and Hamp.

It has been quite a while since we had visited with them, and the kids were beyond excited.

We celebrated some of the birthdays that had passed in the recent months. Mary made one of her scrum-delicious cakes and was quite the hostess.

It was so good to see each one of them again and introduce them to their newest cousin as well.




For some reason I am hearing the words..."...now they work for me. My name is Charlie."

It doesn't take Wil and Hamp long to pick right up where they left off...they are truly great pals..and wiseguys :-)



One must not forget that the evening should end in a pretty good talent show of sorts involving some whimsical clothing changes and several Hannah or Troy/Gabriella tunes. These girls were hilarious and we thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment.
Thank you Mae and Hamp. We miss you!!
PS. Mary, I am so sorry about that tree (don't ask..it involves a little misfortune involving Wilson and his inability to hang upside down from small branch for very long)
