| The kids got to stay up late to see Pop and Gramm get to Uzbekistan! |
 |
| We went to a big Zoo and got a picture in the cool photo booth area. |
 |
| Just holding a couple of monkeys in Uzbekistan, nothing to it really. The monkey Jeremy is holding was likely trained to pick-pocket people because he stole his glasses off his face and tried to get to his pocket (he was disappointed that he found an insulin pump instead of money!) Gramm got to hold the monkeys too! |
 |
| William turned 4 years old during the visit! |
 |
| Shashlik is a local meat kabob that's tasty! |
 |
| Pop, Gramm, and Jeremy went sightseeing in Tashkent on day while William was at school and Kaitlynn and I were cooking some food. |
 |
| The colors used in their architecture are my favorite colors. |
 |
| Gramm just fit right in as a tourist here. And her Russian accent when she said the word "tourist" was awesome! |
 |
| All smiles! |
 |
| Two of our local friends invited us over for dinner during the two week visit along with two american families so we were blessed beyond measure to break bread with brothers and sisters here and with family. |
 |
| We took a day trip to the mountains and our friend showed us this amazing spot where we had lunch. This is my new favorite place in this country. It has water, mountains, and is just relaxing! |
 |
| Sonny and Angi at Chorvak |
 |
| Our table overlooking the water |
 |
| Kaitlynn posing for a photo with Gramm (and William being not so cooperative with the camera opportunities) |
 |
| This is their picture face aka "Cheeseburger" face |
 |
| Me and my little girl |
 |
| This might be my favorite photo of her this year! |
 |
| Just a bunch of sheep walking on the side of the road on a mountain, that's all. |
 |
| Overlooking the reservoir on the side of the mountain. He spoke it all into existence! Isn't that so cool!! |
 |
| Our friend and taxi driver to the mountains. We love this dude! |
 |
| Breathtaking view |
 |
| We took a day trip to Samarkand and enjoyed the sights there. |
 |
| Our taxi driver for the day in Samarkand asked this bride and groom if Sonny and Angi could have a photo with them. I'm sure this photo will be in their wedding book one day :) |
 |
| My handsome husband, whom I don't take photos of often enough! |
 |
| Being chased by Gramm at the playground was so much fun for these guys! |
 |
| She was giggling the whole time she was running! |
 |
| Pop is pretty cool and he is a good photographer too! |
 |
| Guinea pigs and turtles in the same cage at the zoo...interesting. |
 |
| our friend took Kaitlynn out on the ledge of the mountain to show her the water. |
 |
| William and Mommy on the bullet train on the way to Samarkand |
 |
| William helping Pop find his way around. (In reality Pop learned his way around quite quickly and was able to get to and from the hotel on his own each day by the second or third day here and was able to buy things from stores and bazaars without much help!) |
 |
| Just enjoying the food (even the pretend food in Central Asia is delicious!) |
 |
| Laughing together was a great part of the visit! Thanks be to the Father for a sweet visit with Pop and Gramm! |
