Host mom finished her last little girl dress! Her three littlest daughters are going to be so happy (and so cute) in their new dresses!

The dresses were so adorable that we Toy Voyagers insisted on being photographed with the pretty princesses wearing them!

Host mom and her littlest daughter took me for a walk down the alley behind the house, to see what we could see!

We are helping Anastaysia on her goal of visiting 10 cemeteries, so the host family took us to visit Iola's new cemetery. There are stones that date back into the 20s, so it's not THAT new. They looked for their friend, Patty, who succumbed to breast cancer last year, but could not find her stone. Her daughter had said it had roses on it, but there were so many that had roses, that didn't help narrow the search!

Kansas City Airport, MO, USA - 5th May 2012
By: MamiTig
Host mom had to take a trip to the airport very early this morning. She watched the moon the whole two hour drive, since it was supposed to be a "supermoon" today. When she got done with checking in her cargo, the moon was nearly to the horizon and kept threatening to go behind the clouds, so the pictures aren't great- but the moon sure was pretty!

After watching the supermoon set, we took a nap and woke up hungry. We drove to Ryan's, where we enjoyed the breakfast bar!

Charly was excited that host mom knew a place where she could safely get a Missouri state line sign picture! Sadly, there wasn't a Kansas sign when we crossed back in, so we didn't get that But, there was a lot of lovely clover!

Pleasant Ridge Cemetery, OP, KS, USA - 5th May 2012

On our way back toward the highway, we found a little old cemetery. Anastaysia got really excited, so host mom was super nice and stopped so she could see. It is the Pleasant Ridge Cemetery in Overland Park, KS. We found information about it here: click here! Who knew cemeteries had so much history?!

Host mom started an interesting new project. She said she is making armor out of craft foam for her son's history presentation, where he has to dress up as Chandragupta Maurya and do a presentation.

The host family were looking for a service project and found a garden that needed weeding. The garden belonged to a lovely lady named Lula, who lives way out in the country. It was hard work and sometimes the kids wanted to quit, but when they looked up and saw Lula's happy smile, it made them work twice as hard We made quite a dent, but there's still plenty more to be done... we plan to go back in 2 weeks and do some more
