Slideshow

As has become a bit of a Kazapalooza tradition, we will be putting together a slide show featuring all of our beautiful adopted children from Kazakhstan. The theme of this year's presentation is "Then & Now". We are asking each family to email us 2 high resolution photos showing your child "Then" (referral photos, first bonding day, homecoming) and "Now"( a recent photo). The photos can be of just the child or a family shot. Whatever you like.

Send your photos by email to kzslideshow@gmail.com. Be sure to include the following information in your email;
Child's full name
Region in Kazahstan (ie Almaty, Ust-Kamenogorsk, etc)
Age in each photo
IMPORTANT DEADLINE: The deadline for photo submissions is May 1, 2010.
