Trousers Here I Come!

We are headed to Jinja on Monday and I get to wear TROUSERS! I can't wait. For those of you who know me know that I am into fashion and I love variety so this has been a humbling experience to limit myself to 7 outfits for 3 months but I must say I'm doing pretty good at it but I can't wait to break out into TROUSERS! "I'm so excited...I just can't hide it....I don't wanna loose control but I think I like it......" But really I must say I am blessed, I have 7 outfits and the children at Smile only come with what they have so I know some days I get tired of my 7 dresses but I am blessed. When we leave I am donating my dresses to the woman here I can't wait because I know they will be so excited. Ok well I need to run along but just to keep everyone updated I will be away in Jinja for a conference, white water rafting and a safari...and yes I said white water rafting on the NILE RIVER! I actually didn't want to go I was scared I wouldn't make it out alive but I have been talked into going so pray that I survive it. Also pray for those in my boat because anyone riding with me should be prepared for a Courtney adventure. I'll return with great memories and details will be coming your way. God Bless and Happy New Year!

Store brands

Here are some of Tororo's brands. We have some Wilde Orange juice, Feba dish soap, American Pizza Sause, Popcorn in a can, Vim with 99.9% bleach, Bio veggie wash, and Blue Band butter... Gotta love the variety but at least we keep it interesting around here

Gods Gifts

Sometimes I take for granted the gifts that God has given to us but I am so thankful that he does give us gifts and I wanted to take a couple of the photos and share them with you. When the girls were sick we had been couped up in the house for a few days so when we saw the rainbow we got so excited. It was beautiful and a perfect treat for the day, then on our very first day outside on our way to Smile we came upon the lizzard outside our house. He was BEAUTIFUL. Its crazy to think that God has designed even the smallest creatures and he does it with such finesse. There are tons of butterflies here that are all different shapes sizes and colors as well but I haven't been able to capture them yet but when I do I'll be sure to share. I know most of you reading this right now are stuck in cold snowy weather but there are gifts in the winter too, they may be a little harder to recognize because all we want in sunny weather but this is just my little note to help us remember to thank God for the small details.
