It is so hard to believe that we celebrated Father’s Day in Ecuador with our 2 kids!  We waited and prayed for them for so many years before we were blessed with them.  Kane actually arrived on our 10 year wedding anniversary.  It is such a gift for us both to be able to celebrate Mother and Father’s Day as parents.

Scott is such a wonderful father.  He loves our kids so much!  When we were dating, I always thought whoever he marries, is getting a really awesome father for their kids.  God sure blessed me!

We planned to go zip lining for Father’s Day. Unfortunately, Scott was not feeling well, but still wanted to go and watch.  Our kids were SO excited about going!  So we went…

After zip lining, we caught a ride to town, then caught a local bus back to Cuenca(only 25 cents per person).  We had no idea where to get off, so I asked a lady who told me I should get off now by the bus terminal.  So we did and ended up taking a taxi back to our hotel.  Who would have known we were within walking distance to our hotel.

You definitely could tell this was a special day.  Look what we bought before lunch and after the ice cream sandwiches.

After lunch, we walked around the main plaza in Cuenca.  Kat was so sweet and bought Scott and I roses for Father’s Day!

Our hotel told us there was a Pizza Hut at the mall(a mall, wow!), and the pizza was better than the US.  Not quite true, but it was fun to check it out.

It is so weird that they sell beer at the food court at the mall.
