Safari...

Craig and I just got back from a short trip to Lake Nakuru. We had lots of fun and saw lots of animals...we will post pictures soon. They are just so big so we have to make them smaller and then will upload them! COMING SOON!!!

SLOBBER TRIP :)

BIG KISSES...not sure what else to say. But he did let the giraffe eat out of his mouth/off his face about 3 more times. I guess he life giraffes! :)

So...here is the story. Craig and I went with Daylan and her parents to the Elephant and Rhino orphanage. They find the animals in the reserves and places, that have been abandoned or injured and they help them live. So, we were visiting and watching and just enjoying and of course taking lots of pictures. So, we were posing for the next picture and all of a sudden I hear this elephant running (and my back is turned) and then I hear the elephant keeper guy start running...so I freaked out...and this was the picture we got. As you can see he was going for the guy next to us, who was squatting down (BIG NO NO). We were not attacked...but I did freak out a bit! HA! GOOD TIMES!

Easter Wedding

This is one of the teacher's from our school who got married this weekend.
It was very beautiful!

Here is the happy couple after they were announced!

We were practicing taking pictures...ha!

We got better! It was a fun cultural experience.

1st place after all!!!

After a long season of soccer games and tournaments...yesterday the league finals were announced. WNS girl's soccer won 1st place in our league. We did not even know until we showed up at the awards ceremony so it was quite exciting! Not only that, but we were also awarded the sportsmanship award. This was especially exciting to me! I mean last semester we got the sportsmanship awards and I was so proud of the kids...but they did not have a very good record. But to beat everyone and still get the sportsmanship award, was really exciting! I am so proud of the girls!!! The boys' basketball team got 2nd place in the league. It was a good sports season...maybe because of our excellent new Athletic Director ;)

Team pictures at last!

They were pretty excited to make into the final game...they worked SO hard all day!!!

The boys' MS team accepting their first place award!!! They were REALLY excited!!!

Accepting our 2nd place award...we were excited!!!

Here is our team of middle school girls that worked so hard! It was a beautiful sunny day!

Another 2nd Place

With the size of our soccer team this year we were able to fit into to leagues. We had a junior varsity team as well as a middle school team. Earlier in the season we took the JV team to a tournament and got 2nd place. It was an awesome day and the girls worked hard. On Saturday we took our MS teams to another tournament. Last year the boys' basketball team got 2nd place but this year they were able to get 1st. They played well all day and it was fun to watch their games in between ours. Not only did they do well...but so did our team. Last year we placed 9th out of 9 teams :( OUCH! But this year we were able to get 2nd place. We missed 1st place in a shoot out that went to 8 people shooting. It was a close game the whole way. The girls did AMAZING and it was so fun!
....I will try and add pictures soon...internet is SLOW today! :( TIA!!!

One year of love...many more to come!!!

Craig and I celebrated our 1 year of dating on Feb. 28th (Brookie's Birthday). Probably the only time we will ever celebrate our "dating" anniversary, but it was a nice night out. He surprised me with 20 AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL white and yellow roses. Thanks baby! It was a special day for us...LOTS MORE TO COME!!!

LONGONOT TOGETHER!!!

After my many hikes up Mt. Longonot Craig and I finally got to do it together. It was great to finally get to share the time together. We were able to hike up last Sunday with some friends. Now that Kenya is really headed in the direction of peace (PRAISE THE LORD) we are able to get out of the city again, we are enjoying it! Thanks for all the prayers!!!
