Thanks Mr. Peabody for the use of the Wayback Machine, today we're traveling back to late January 2011 for some of the pictures of our adventures in Kansas when we visited the Hisles for Chinese New Year.
We had a great visit, got a chance to catch up on happenings, and have some fun. Plus, the weather was a lot milder than we had been having in Iowa.
We went to a very nice celebration at the Nelson Atkins Museum in Kansas City, which included a shadow puppet performance. A really neat traditional way of telling a story.
Arts and crafts for the kids.
Miaya playing with a Chinese yo-yo, the performers were truly amazing in the tricks they performed.
Super neat!
The next night, we had a truly great meal at a local Chinese restaurant in Topeka.
The "less mess" method of eating egg drop soup! The straw is good for more than just beverages, what a concept.
Zia Joy putting the cheater chopsticks to good use.
Both girls did really well with the cheaters. It was Miaya's first real time eating with chopsticks.
"My Best Friend Buddy" as Miaya describes Zia Joy.
The yummy kind of arts and crafts -- icing sugar cookies at the Hisles.
Look at that concentration!
Time to add the sprinkles! Now, we EAT!
