Due to the cost of flying our family back to the States, we spent the summer in Kigali. Our boss is truly kind and found work for us to do at school, so that we could be employed for the summer months. Although we MISSED going back to the states, we LOVED having visitors. Here's a glimpse of what we did and who we were with...
Our dear friends Alison, David, Gideon & Jemma Ellis brought along Riley Egge, Emily Frier, and Izzy Kohler.
We had a full house and full hearts!
The pictures above are of us all getting ready for a Rwandan wedding.
We went on safari...

We worked for a day in the village...

| Removing corn kernals |
 |
| Hauling bananas |
 |
| Carrying the baby |
We enjoyed making music, sharing meals, playing games, and just being together...
About two days after our friends left,
Carol and Ovid McNatt (Nana and O) made their first international trip.
We took walks in our neighborhood, traveled to Uganda for safari,
and enjoyed being together at home.

It was an incredible blessing to share our life here with

We'd love to host more guests in the future.
Let us know if you'd like to come see us in Kigali!
