Yesterday Chris and I took the kids to the annual Living Traditions Festival downtown which we look forward to every year. It's a cultural fair with dancing, singing, arts, and (more importantly) cuisine! They set up 20 or so food tents with all different kinds of meals. Bosnian, Vietnamese, Tibetan, Laotion, and Salvadoran to name a few. Em, Mike, and Lainey met us there and we all set up a little picnic area near the kids crafts area. It was pretty warm outside with a constant cool breeze. Chris and Mike periodically ventured over to the tents to bring back a new plate of something to try. We had a ton of different things to eat. Pakistani chicken curry, Tibetan momos and spicy potatoes, watermelon, Swiss chocolate hazelnut cake, and Bosnian palacink (crepes filled with nutella and strawberries) and Cevapcici which was by far the best thing we tried all day. After stuffing our faces we all just layed around and relaxed. Maddy made a few crafts, Liam and daddy strolled around the grounds and I soaked up some sunshine. It was really fun to spend time with the Em, Mike, and Lainey as well. We love them so much as do both of our kids. Another great weekend.

| This watermelon turned out to be a HUGE hit with the kids! |

| Liam kept lurching forward to get more. |
 |
| He looked so cute sticking his tongue out before he took a bite. |
 |
| They were full of smiles...and watermelon |

| Liam couldn't eat it fast enough! |
