Safari!

Danna Jo, Shogo, Jenna and Brendan
It has been a wonderful, eventful and precious ten days with our daughters, Danna and Jenna, and their boyfriends, Shogo and Brendan. This is our first missionary home without our children, and my request for our 25th wedding anniversary, coming up on Sept. 20, was to have our daughters come “home” for a few days. An added bonus was that their boyfriends could come along, giving us a chance to get to know these special young men a little better, and giving them a glimpse into the missionary life that our girls have grown up in. 
Don't they look African?!
Together again!

The girls loved playing Sogo's drum!
We spent the first week here at KIST, where they all contributed in various ways, such as networking the office computers, organizing the card catalogue in the library and helping with a community health outreach. The girls and I also got to record some of our songs in the CBH studio, and the kids had African outfits made.

Then in the second week, we went on SAFARI! Enjoy the pictures, and learn some Swahili!

It was definitely a great way to celebrate our 25th. God is good! Bwana Asifiwe!
