Well we have made it safely. We love it!!! So far the ultimate highlight has been meeting our little girl Tumani (Hope) that we sponsor. She is beautiful. It took a few minutes for her to warm up but she now will grab my arm and wrap it around her. We will be meeting Irene today as well. They both live very near to the base so we will be seeing a lot of them hopefully.
Today we went into town to a mrket and it was an experience. Dave did his wonders as always with his favorite pastime: BARTERING! Maddy and I were a bit overwhelmed at first but I think we will get the hang of it. I'll try to post some pictures now.

Yeah I am glad you made it there safely. Elissa made it home safely too. I gave her huge hugs from you. Did you find anyone to give the shoes to? Did the clothes you got work for them? I can't wait to here more. We are praying for you.
How exciting! I can't wait to see pictures. That cracks me up about Dave! Only Dave could fly half way around the world and still manage to get a deal! He needs to give classes! Have Fun! Love you! Leah
I'm so happy this dream is coming true for you! What a blessing to meet your (sponsored) kids!! I was told that shopping in Africa is much better than shopping here. CeCe told me that bartering is the best. Good thing you have Dave with you!!
Have a blast and soak up as much African culture as you can. Pick up some recipes for us to try when you come back.
Love you!
alina solver says I and my family have been praying for you and I can hardly believe how fast time has flown. You have been such an inspiration to me as we watch you and your family serve God with every thing and all your money and possesions that you have. How heavy your crowns will be as you cast them at Jesus feet. You have glorified HIM ! Well done HIS children. lots of love, and we want to see your photos when you get home too. love, Alina and fam
