Come and see us!

Please!

I will show off for you!!

I'll introduce you to all my friends

Daddy loves to take naps

The front yard of the house where we will be moving.

AG's favorite attire!

Sitting up on my own!!

My favorite toy

Got it!

Lots of bananas, or motoke, one of the staple foods here. There are many different varieties and thankfully our family really likes bananas!

We took a recent trip outside of Kampala

It was a long drive

We visited a school run by Cornerstone Development, the organization we are working together with here. The school is training future leaders.

The school's chapel

AG loved seeing the cows

What is on my head?? Actually these hats are made from used plastic bags which are woven together to make all sorts of things. Making bead necklaces and bracelets out of paper and hats and rugs from plastic bags are some of the projects that can help widows, as well as helping the environment by reducing waste!

AG and some of her new friends (also Americans living in Uganda) having tea time

I can fly!!!!

AG playing with a lizard. She loves insects and reptiles much to her mother's dismay. She will spend hours outside talking to lizards and bugs. She likes snails and caterpillars in particular.
