Yes, this IS my home!
I told you Ilkiding'a ward was beautiful. Jena took this pic on our walk back home from visiting a village where we had to watch a teaching and give back constructive criticism. The pic above is of our favorite Mama; she owns the shop (duka) were standing in; she sells tea and donuts. nom. Sometimes I watch the World Cup in there on the 10 '' tv they have hanging on the wall, with the rest of the neighborhood football fans---Cameroon owned that game against Japan, what a sad ending.
Kids are so inventive! yesterday I saw a hoard of them with jump ropes made out of tree vines. Soccer balls made out of a bunch of plastic bags tied into a ball with rope is popular too.
I hate missionaries--sorry if youre reading this and are offended---they come in with a van, drop off a bunch of useless toys (balloon animals and plastic balls), preach their bullshit and then leave. I hear "give me my money" and "give me a present" from 50 kids a day as a result. Its all these kids know, so you really cant let your frustration get hte b etter of you.
love lvoe love!!

also, matching skirts is not mandatory--we just love eachother so much we thought it would be appropriate.
