Laundry, Soccer, and a Birthday



If youre going to live in Africa I highly recommend not waiting a month to do your laundry...


We have to do it all by hand...
3 loads of color, 2 loads of whites, and 1 load of jeans later...Or should I say 3 1/2 hours later, my laundry was just about done when the water ran out.

This cow kept me company though so that was nice...


This is the tank I get my water from that ran out of water half way through so I had to run to the shower to refill...This is also the trough(?) i use to scrub my jeans...


And these are the tubs that I scrub all my clothes in...One of the women who works at our house, Mary, thinks we don't know how to do laundry...Obviously, were American...


After laundry we were meeting the house boys at a primary school down the street to play soccer and hang out...it turned out to be a pretty low-key and nice afternoon...



Justus and Johnstone


Once again, I gave my camera to some of the house boys and this is what I found on it once I got home...

Allison likes to call this a "Cornstache" or a "Mustalk". I know, I know...


David was a frog...


I'm not quite sure...








Please don't mind me and my sweaty face...We just got done playing soccer...On the other hand I love Moses' face...how is it that Africans don't sweat?


Cute Braum


Again, please don't mind the sweaty face...


Today was one of our housemates birthday's. Her name is Tanya and she is from Ukraine...She teaches English at one of the schools here in Kitale. She is so sweet and just a really great person...

Chris wore this nifty sweater to dinner, (the one that one of the women here made for us) and Allison thought he looked like Alex P. Keaton from Family Ties...


What do you think? It's ok if you don't think he looks like a man anymore
