Soccer and Sunning

I am lacking the energy for a full blog post, but thought you might like to see a little of the view from where I am. This is what we have been up to for the last few days. My students arrive soon and we will be going to the rainforest in Kakamega before Adam and Lauren leave for their safari.
Me and Lauren basking in the sunrise.
More Basking.......
The hand shaking begins.....I kinda like it, makes me feel like the president :)

Lauren did a fabulous job with the pad/puberty talk :)

It has become common to find a troup of boys waiting by our door when we get home, requesting "Adams" to play with them. They don't even seem to mind when he uses his height/weight advantage to steal the ball :)

Our front lawn has become the new designated soccer(excuse me, futbol) field. This is a pic of Lauren gaining some street cred with the neighborhood boys. They find it fascinating and hilarious that this mzungu lady not only plays soccer, but does it barefoot :) She may go down in history here as the coolest girl ever.
