Pictures!



African children are so cute.
The 2nd from the left is Amin's daughter, Gloria.




More colours.






Some more beautiful children.
The girl on the left was a wild and brilliant singer.








Christina braiding Melissa's hair.







The main road into town






Baby :)






Matthew and his camels.







This is Matthew showing us how to milk a camel.







Tarzan vine!




This is the waterfall we hiked up to.




Mobile clinic time!




To weigh the little kids, we would hang them up
in funny blue pants.



After weighing them, we would measure them.



The kids who were old enough would just hang on to the scale.





A lady making some beaded jewelry. They're all so talented!
I mean, look at the necklaces she's wearing!




Holding hands with little kids. One of my favourite parts about Africa.




Here are a few of the silly balloon hats we made at the party.




Some of the young women dressed up for the
biblestudy/purity talk we had with them.




HERE is the picture you have all been waiting for...
THE WARRIORS!
Okay, so we only got a sneaky picture of them while
we were sitting in the truck, but you get the picture.
Aren't they exciting?



Giraffe!!!


We sat and watched this herd of elephants for so long...

This is the monkey that pooped on Melissa's supper.

This is what Sara and Melissa looked like after
they took out their braids.

At the elephant orphanage.

And, these pictures are self explanatory:

Thank you all for your patience, prayers, comments, love, encouragement.
It's been a fun journey.
With Love,

-Team Kenya.

Pictures!

Dearest friends,

It has been a month and a half since we were in Kenya, and we still haven't put up any pictures for you to see! We are very sorry, but today is the day that will all change! Here are some pictures that will make some of the stories come to life. Enjoy!



Sara and Melissa with Amin and his family infront of their house.
(minus one daughter who couldn't get out of school for a picture)





This is the lovely vehicle we travelled in.




Amin with a brand new soccerball hat.



Lovely Gloria surrounded by some beautiful children.




Three Cheers for Team Kenya!

Language lessons with Amin!
We tried so hard to learn Samburu...



A women's meeting in the church.

Kids :)





Everyone hanging around talking after church.


This is the dispensary. The big building in the middle is the office
building where we would write to you from.
