Remember Us?

Yes, we are still here! There hasn't been a blog post from us since May! What can I say? ...it has been a busy few months! And once out of the habit and behind on the news, it was hard to get back into it. I will attempt to revive it now! 

We have recently returned from a great week in Kenya which was a wonderful break after all that activity! We drove to Nairobi with two of the girls' friends (15 hours of fun, singing every song under the sun!) and dropped them all off at Camp BlueSky, a Christian youth camp, the following day. They had a fantastic week of fun and adventure with loads of other young people. We are so thankful to Tim's mum for making this possible for them! Meanwhile Tim and I escaped to Malewa for three nights and enjoyed the peaceful quiet in these beautiful hills! It was wonderful to stop and breathe, enjoy reading, walking and just being! It was just all over far too soon!

While in Kenya, we made the most of every opportunity and enjoyed the luxury of good coffee in lovely coffee shops … with croissants!  We also enjoyed the opportunity to be with the Deliverance Church Umoja in Nairobi on the Sunday we were there! We were so warmly welcomed and received; it was good to reconnect with people there!

Here are a few photos of our time away! And over the next little while, I hope to update the blog for those of you interested to hear what's cookin' in Tanzania! There does seem so much to share and be thankful for! Maybe I will start with the bees …

We watched the World Cup in a packed outdoor mall in Nairobi!

A real treat! A holiday fruitcake from our rationed dried fruit!
