Heidi Moore's going away party - Naomi's Village

Our friend Heidi is about to go over to Kenya for an indefinite amount of time. She will be at Naomi's Village, learning swahili, being a "Mom" to orphans and trying to implement some ideas to help turn the economy around.

Stats from the website:
UNICEF estimates there are presently 25 million orphaned children in Sub-Saharan Africa. In Kenya alone there are currently 2 million orphans out of the 12 million children (16% of all children under age 15). 700 children a day become orphaned in Kenya – 1 every 2 minutes!

This is an awesome video about Naomi's Village. Joshua's story is heartbreaking, but he now has a better life at Naomi's Village.

Heidi is very passionate about helping out children and serving the Lord. She is a true inspiration to everyone she meets.

Family

Eggs, Gardens and the Park

Who are those monkeys?

Aunt Lindsey and Bailey!

We got misted on.

Lindsey still being a monkey!

A night out with family and Flat Stanley

Jets and Strawberry Surprise

We had our own personal air show today!

This used to be my strawberry plant.

It is now a nest for some house finches.

Bailey and Stinky

Bluebonnets

It's nearly impossible to get Bailey to sit still and smile nicely when I'm trying to get pictures of him.

Bailey took this picture of me... with the port-a-potty of course.

Chocolate Ice Cream Cone Face

Funk Soul Brother???

Fat Boy Slim's song "Funk Soul Brother" was on the radio today long enough for Travis to decide he needed to find a different song (maybe 20 seconds). When they got home Bailey was singing this song at the top of his lungs, making up his own words, of course. I had Bailey recreate it for me to video, so I'm sure its not as good as the original.



Yes, I'm WAY behind on blog posts. Updates coming soon?

New Kite

Here is B and Travis flying the new kite.

We borrowed the neighbor's yard (less power lines). Bailey likes it, but he gets bored pretty fast.
