Fireworks in Africa!

Friday last week, we went to a fireworks show at Baobab School. It was a LOTT of fun and it was the best firework show I'd ever seen in Africa. My family and I were really impressed! Something else that made it really cool, was that we were really close to them. Kathryn and I said that watching fireworks in the states isn't as exciting because they keep you far away (with good reason) but it was definitely more exciting to have them exploding right over your head. :)

Good-Bye David :(

We had a good-bye party at our house on Saturday last week. David Straw (a kid from youth) is moving to Australia. We had too much fun, but it was a sad time as well. One of my sayings is that life for an MK is "hello and good-bye". The funny pictures of people putting on clothes are from the relay we did. One of the steps in the relay was to open a suitcase and put on the clothes that were inside. We had a ball!

Band Practice

Hey Everyone! We have started a youth band PRACTICE. I wouldn't say we're a band yet, because we're not that good, but practice makes perfect, right? We try to meet once a week. A Baptist Bible study we attend here has asked us to perform 2 songs sometime this month so that's what we're working toward for the moment. Kathryn and I sing mainly, and Kathryn also plays the shaker. In the pictures we have Verona on the keyboard, Caleb on the guitar, Lucas on the trumpet, and Callie on the Drums. We have two more guitarists but they are gone for a while. Enjoy!
