Just another week

On Monday, as we were taking the mail out, Jacob wiped out on the driveway. He scratched up his face and his hands. He cut his mouth in two places. Then on Wednesday, Kiah was running out of her room and Jacob was running in and there was a collision. Thus resulting in Jacob getting another bloody lip.
Jacob is learning another new skill this week, time-out.


I took this picture of Kiah in Uganda. It has become my favorite picture of her. This week she said the cutest thing. Jon was walking out of the office and she said "He is a really good guy."


I tried on Wednesday to get the kids to take a picture together. After about a half-hour, I surrender defeat.

Sunday Morning Worship

For some reason, Sunday morning worship here in America wasn't the same today. Enjoy this clip from Madoch Africa Gospel Church in Kumi, Uganda.

Update on Cambridge

In addition to being accepted to a given Faculty and the Board of Graduate Studies, it is also necessary for the potential graduate student to be accepted to a given college. The University of Cambridge has some thirty-one colleges, and in order to apply I had to select two. During our visit to Cambridge last winter, Jennifer and I were able to visit Selwyn College. It was a delightful experience and we walked away with a strong sense that this would be a good community to be with during our time in the U.K. As such, we made Selwyn our top choice. It was therefore, with great joy that we recently learned that Selwyn College accepted our placement. Here are a few pictures of the college. Enjoy!




Pictured above is the front entry into the college compound. The Greek text translates as: "Stand Strong in the Faith."


Upon entering the compound, one observes the central courtyard. The building in the center is the college chapel.


Here is a photo of the main dinning hall. As you can see, the table is set for a banquet.

More Safari Pictures

On Wednesday, Jennifer and Kiah took a boat ride to the bottom of Murchison Falls. Along the way, they saw lots of hippos, crocodiles, elephants and colorful birds. The rest of the pictures are from our evening game drive.
