Victoria Falls

We have had such a good time having our whole family together again!  Recently, we went to Victoria Falls and got to do lots of fun things!  It is only about a 6 hour drive from where we live and it is well worth the trip. 

 Zach's girlfriend Megan has been with us for the last month as well.  It was fun showing her the Falls and lots of animals.







 Me and my Sweetie!

Kids grow up way too fast these days!

 I know it seems like I have a lot of family pictures but we haven't had one for over a year so I'm just making up for lost time.  Ha!

 Justin, Zach, and Hannah



 For some reason I had never hiked down to the bottom of the falls.  It was so beautiful and looked like a jungle most of the way.  At the bottom was this fantastic view.  Zach climbed down even further out on the rocks.

 The next day Zach and Justin bungee jumped among other things from this bridge!  Pictures to follow in another post!








 We didn't get as wet as we did last month but still got some wet.  Well, me and Kevin didn't get as wet as last time!  The kids got pretty soaked!

 Me and my boys!

 The whole gang!

 I love this picture!!  What's even better is I didn't even ask for a kiss!  

 I sure am going to miss this boy!

One last family picture!

Another day at the orphanage

 We went back to Breath of Heaven Orphanage another day.  We have all fallen in love with those kids!  They are so precious!

 They love to play on the playground.

 We helped some more kids write letters to their sponsors.
This took a while but it really helped us to get to know the kids better.

 Hannah and Memory

 On this day we took some fingernail polish and polished nails.  They loved getting this done!



 They loved showing their nails off when they were finished.

 Zach helped teach a young man how to play the guitar.



 He showed the kids how to juggle.

 



 We took some tangerines to share with the kids.  They seemed to like this treat.



 Of course, they liked playing games again.  Here they are playing "Red Rover."










more painted nails
 
 and toes!

 Judy was listening to the kids read.  They love to read books!







The kids loved playing with Megan's hair!

We had such a good time! We are hoping to go back again before Zach and Megan leave!
