Happy Thursday!

As you all know, Sally and Buffy were recently here to visit us! It was a lovely break and so much fun to show them around! We got to see a beautiful waterfall and feed monkeys among many other things. If you haven't seen them yet, check out Sally's blog for some great pictures!

The girls just started school again, so we’re finally settling back into our routine. Their love for learning never ceases to amaze me. After a full day of school, they’ll come home begging for English lessons! It’s paying off though-we rarely need to have Mercy translate for them anymore! They’re doing so well :)

In other news, we will be celebrating Lucky’s tenth birthday tomorrow! This sweet girl is constantly smiling, singing at the top of her lungs and looking for ways to help. We often call her Mama Lucky-she always looks after the other girls and makes sure no one is left out. We love you Lucky! Happy happy birthday!

Thanks so much for all your prayers and support!  You should know that the girls thank God almost every night for all the people in America that love them and pray for them :)

We will be visiting the States in a few short days (14 to be exact) and Teddy and Ellie will be arriving in Ghana just before we leave! We love you are so excited to see many of you soon!

Landon, Kate and all 8 :)

Beautiful Lucky

English lessons with Buffy


This is their all-time favorite game. We don't
really understand the rules, but it involves a lot of
jumping and clapping!


Much to Landon's delight, I found a recipe
for yeast-free pizza! It was an all-day affair,
but oh so worth it :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Guest Post | Sally & Buffy

Hello!
This is Sally- Landon's sister. My mother and I just got back from our visit to Ghana to spend time with Landon and Kate and to meet their 8 sweet girls! We had an amazing trip- I have posted some of our travel photos over on my photography blog- www.manlovin.blogspot.com and am sharing some things here as well. I have so many photos to share, but I thought for this post I would share one of each of the girls and some group photos :)
Enjoy!

















More soon!
Love,
Sally
