Our main plan for the day was to go back to Andrea and Mike's house and make a Persian dinner, khoresh bademjan (eggplant stew over rice) for everyone. After a few around-the-house chores and preparing the eggplants in the oven, I put all the ingredients needed for our dinner in the car and we all headed to the Killeen playground for a bit before heading over to their house.
Once we got to their house, the two little girls went off to make trouble. It's so cute how friendly they are. Kian started playing with some of his toys, and Andrea and I started making dinner.

Kian was a little bored again, but honestly he was too busy earning tomatoes in Turbo on the iPad to even notice.
We were all busy chatting and cooking and chatting some more, and so we did not take too many pictures.
We all ate dinner, had dessert, and chatted some more!

We ended up staying way past the kids' bedtime, but when you are in good company it's always hard to leave :)
Our family of four is chased summer around the world. Now we are a family of 5, back in the US, and planning our next great adventure.
