I realize that some of you who visit this blog are not on Facebook (all 2 of you ;)), and I don’t always post everything there anyway, SO I thought maybe this would be a good time to catch you up on what’s been happening in our world since the beginning of May.

Living Hope Children’s Club in Masiphumelele.

Zeke’s class took a field trip to Imhoff’s Farm and got to feed and hold bunnies. Cassidy tagged along for the fun :).

Mother’s Day.

All 3 kids are in swim lessons now. They have learned so much in the last 8 weeks and we are confident that they will be ready when summer comes.

Mother’s Day lunch with the Moms and Tots group from Masi and Ocean View. This group of women graduated from the program on June 10th.

Walk-a-thon to raise money for the kids’ school. Avery ran/walked 19 laps, Cassidy did 4, and Zeke did 29! A quiet competitiveness came out of our boy that day…while the majority of his peers were playing and having snack/rest time, he kept running and running until we eventually ended the event and told him he had to stop. It was pretty fun to watch!

Parent day at Avery’s school. We got to shadow her for the day and we had so much fun being a part of her world!

Parent day for Zeke! We are very proud of how well he’s doing in the Dolphin class!

Visiting Gram and Pop at Beachside church in Kommetjie.

We found this guy in the bathroom. The kids saved him and released him (after he ate dinner with us that night…eek!). All I wanted to do was scream, run and hide!

A cold, rainy Father’s Day. Winter has arrived in Cape Town. Happy summer to those of you in warmer places! Blessings and hugs from our family to yours.
