CWA Picnic

Greetings from North Carolina! I finally figured out how to get on the internet in my hotel room so now I can post some of those CWA Kyrgyzstan faces! I had a wonderful time meeting the families that I met in cyberspace and have emailed. Like someone else said, it's like you know these people personally! I wish I could have spent more one on one time, getting to know the children and the families, but time was short, M wasn't feeling the best, and it was hot!! So we all hope to see you again next time! We were joined by some of the embassy officials and some visitors from Kyrgyzstan. This will be short. I want to get some rest, we've been out and about touring the NC area, what a great place to visit! Way too much to do! For now enjoy some of the pics I took, if any of the picnicers have some great shots, please, please share!

You did a great job getting pictures of everyone! I didn't do nearly as well, I'm going to have to steal some of yours! :)

Thanks for sharing. I wish I could've crashed the party to meet all the other Kyrgyz kids and their families. I especially would have loved to see you :)

Glad you had a wonderful time!!!

Wow what great pictures. I love seeing all the kids, and especially since I have trouble keeping up with all of the blogs :)

Like I posted on Jamie's blog, I SOOO wish I could have been there! I say we host a yahoo picnic at Disney next year (or this year if you are heading down anyway). Who's with me?!

I love Michael's new big boy haircut and the picnic looked like a blast. I wish the picnics were inter-agency. It would so cool to see all the families together.
