Needles Anyone?

Happy New Year! Even though it still seems like a long way off...our planning for Uganda took a serious step forward this past week with the reservation of plane tickets (exciting) and immunizations for the kids (not-so-exciting). It's too bad that the kid's first real experience concerning Uganda is getting poked in the arm three times....but that's just the reality of travelling overseas. The experience did, however, prompt us to look at pictures of our past trips to Uganda to remind ourselves of why we are doing this in the first place.

The kids did great with the needles...no tears. Their mother--ever vigilant of making sure her kids don't throw up--switched one immunization shot for the seasonal flu shot....so they have one more visit to the travel clinic for one more immunization shot for Uganda (Paisley has two). Deep down I'm sure the kids are thankful...way deep down.

And we're thankful for your interest and support of our trip.

Blogs will increase in frequency in February or March.....or when Tracey takes over...whatever comes first.

Peace.
