Kibaale Visit

It's been great having a few days to visit with the Dyck family down in Kibaale.  We drove about 3 hours south-west from Mpigi to Pacific Academy's school in Kibaale.  Here, about 750 kids get a great education.

Our accommodations were certainly a 'step up' from the Mpigi guesthouse, and Shannon cooked us great meals!  The kids played all day with the Dyck kids....we barely saw them!  Last night, we celebrated Sean's birthday with a delicious chocolate cake cooked by his wife Jamie (another missionary couple from PPAC).  All in all it's been a great 2.5 days.

Yesterday, we piled all the kids into the back of a truck and did a few home visits.  This is the first significant 'perspective-building' opportunity for our kids as they met families in significant need.  The picture of the mud house is the new house that the family can now enjoy.  We could see the boys processing the fact that this home was an improvement for them....hoping for a few conversations in the next few days to hear how they are processing it all...

Today we head back up to Mpigi with Sean and Jamie.  Lydie (our French friend who is staying in Uganda with us) is not feeling well today and is staying here in Kibaale until Sunday.

Here's a few pics (hopefully) of our time in Kibaale...
