A photo summary of our year
 |
| January in Texas |
 |
| Nate loved his firetruck birthday cake |
 |
| February - first day of school |
 |
| March was hot. It's usually the hottest month of the year on the coast of Kenya. They were either looking at the moon or watching an airplane. |
 |
| Easter They love millipedes. The one they are watching here is actually rather small. |
 |
| April, at our new house, before it was ready for us to move in |
 |
| May, we moved to Kilifi. This dining set was Rodgers' birthday gift. He fell in love with the wood. |
 |
| Mother's Day - they both miraculously ate everything that was served. It was the start of a new trend! |
 |
| a trip to Haller Park in June |
 |
| July - our first outing without diapers |
 |
| At the beach in Kilifi |
 |
| August - watching the waves in Malindi |
 |
| Ben cuddling Grandma after getting in trouble |
 |
| September - Ben considers his birthday cake |
 |
| Kilifi beach again. Nate and Ben would wait until the waves came in, then make a run for it. They are a little afraid of the water. |
 |
| At Grandma's house in October |
 |
| Nate dips chicken in soup. He was such a picky eater in 2012, he has really amazed me this year by eating so many different things. |
 |
| Also at Grandma's house |
 |
| November - putting up the Christmas tree |
 |
| Trying out the top bunk in our room at a guest house during our trip to the Great Rift Valley. I told them they have to be 6 years old to sleep up there, though. |
 |
| In December, we had a big party for our MKKs. Of the 30 MKKs we now sponsor, 22 were able to come to the party. |
 |
| Rodgers' mom had a big party to publicly thank God for healing her of a major illness a few years ago. Here she is surrounded by her kids and grandkids. |
 |
| We moved again, just a few houses up the street, to a place with a house for us and a duplex we can use as Maisha Kamili Transition Homes (a few details about that here). |
 |
| Our housekeeper left us to get married. We decided to get a washing machine for my birthday/Christmas gift instead of hiring a new housekeeper. |
 |
| As always, we end the year celebrating Emmanuel, God with us. Here's our play Nativity before the boys tore it up by playing with it so much. |
 |
| Merry Christmas! |
