Here's a random assortment of pictures from the last few weeks... These were taken with my phone, so some of them aren't the greatest quality... pole sana (so sorry)

"The Bag Lady" ...every time I see her, I have to wonder what her story is!

Little Sylvia, checking out her new home...

The place was just filthy before we got it swept...

Imagine if all of your belongings could fit on a stack this size!  Seriously!!

The guys getting her bed frame put together...

Time to start unpacking...

When you have three little fellows at a downtown hardware store and they sit so quietly and patiently! :) 

All I said was, "Smile!"

Babysitting these little guys~ Joshua trying out a new sawing technique ;)

Talia... one of the sweetest little ladies ever...

A Sunday afternoon at Zilpa's with Rosemary...These women are two of my closest native friends...

Rosemary's oldest son :) 

One morning, one of my neighbors and I went out early with two fisherman on Lake Victoria.  The experience itself was topnotch, but our success didn't quite match up.  Right now is the "off" season and so our fellow fisherman (in this picture) only got a few Tilapia and some Nile Perch.  It was still so much fun to just relax out on the water.  So many things here line up with the culture in the Bible times, and coming in with mostly empty nets, I was thinking of the morning that Jesus told the disciples to cast their nets on the other side.  Other things too, such as wedding customs, etc. are completely in tune with NT Bible stories.

Babysitting... and making cookies...
