We’ve been blessed to have the kids’ grandparents visit us each year that we’ve been in West Africa. This year was my parents’ turn and they timed it so that KJ and “Granny Sarah” could celebrate their birthdays together. During their two weeks with us we toured around northern Ghana a bit taking them to […]
Elephants in June at Mole National Park

Happy 3rd Birthday, KJ!
This weekend we celebrated KJ’s birthday at our home in Nalerigu. KJ’s grandparents had come to visit and Granny Sarah’s birthday is the day before KJ’s so it was a dual-birthday party! Lots of KJ & Trey’s friends came as well as some of our colleagues and visiting volunteers from the hospital.
Vacay Time!
