Shipment pictures and a couple others

Here are a few pictures of our shipment:
















Arlo loves having his wagon...




And Gamma and Pawpaw arrived safe and sound (and a little late). Their flight from London was cancelled due to a bird strike or something, so they were re-booked on Emirates and had to fly through Dubai. So, it was a stressful morning for us when they didn't show up at the airport as originally scheduled, but after making some calls we figured out what was going on and had a grand reunion at the airport.

Here are a couple of pics from the first day with Gamma and Pawpaw (many more to follow).

Gamma and the boys playing cars:




Here is a picture of the whole gang. Mike Rodewald is the man standing on the right. He is from Concordia, but currently lives in South Africa (he's lived in Africa for almost 30 years working as a missionary). He was in Addis for the week so we had dinner with him and took this picture for the Concordian.




We are headed to Gondar and Lalibela this weekend, so we'll have lots of great pictures and stories to share!

Love to all,

Nate
