Going South

Here are a few pics. of our last few days. There is a small synopsis at the bottom.


We were celebrating Emily(7) and Taylors(8) birthdays.
These bathing beauties are Emily, Evie, Taylor,and Hannah.


Here are a few pics. of a beautiful peacock that was perched on our upstairs porch. They sure are pretty to look at but not pretty to hear at 3:00am and then again around 4:00am. When they cry out they sound like a child yelling help.




These are termite hills. Aren't they huge? There was one stretch of road where they were on both sides for a long way.

For the last 5 days we visited the Southern Province of Zambia. We started with our friends the Wilcoxes in Gwembe. We were able to go to church with them on Sun. and visit with them in their home for two days before traveling further south to Sinazongwe. Our friends the Langstons had invited us to come and help celebrate their two girls birthdays along with the Wilcoxes and the Smiths(friends from Kaoma). We had a cookout and the kids got to swim. It was fun seeing a different part of Zambia and learning more about the Tonga people. The men all went out fishing one afternoon but it was too windy to catch anything.
