When we were in Nairobi we spent some time with Hollye Conway at a children's AIDS clinic. These are some of the children we spent time with while we were there. |

Being in Africa has taught us to not care too much about personal space. Here are Nathan, Chris, and Ben in the back of a car on our way back from a church in Kisumu. |

One of the biggest blessings has been getting to know some of the missionaries here in Kenya. We were so grateful to spend some time in Nairobi with the Conway family. Here we are at a popular tourist restaurant called the Carnivore. |

Where else in the world can you go and feed giraffes? In Nairobi, we were able to get closer to giraffes than we will probably ever be able to in the future. It was really cool. |
|
|
|
This is our youth rally in Mafuta. The Lord blessed us with over 300 people on Sunday morning. It's probably not that hard to find us. |

Holly Conway was our guide at the orphaned baby elephant & rhino park. |

Here is Mark preaching in Mafuta with our good friend Shadrack translating. |

It has been tough to get a kiss in Africa. Chris decided to try feeding this giraffe with his mouth. |
|
|
|
|
|
While at the orphaned elephant park, Nathan got the chance to play with one of the Baby elephants. |

Collins fell asleep while Ben was reading. We really love the little guy. |

Kenyan coast in Mombasa |

While snorkeling in Mombasa, we were so glad when we saw the "special" sandals we would get to wear. But we think Denton was the most excited. |

Have you ever heard that you can get worms in Africa; it's true. Here is Nathan picking a jigger worm out of his toe. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some of our souvenirs from snorkeling were unknowingly still alive. This is Denton finding that out the hard way. |

As much as we love rice and beans, it was nice to go on vacation with good seafood. Here are the guys with Jamie Swift at a nice little restaurant in the bay. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
We had the opportunity to spend some time with the Swift family in Mombasa. Here is little Gabbi Swift admiring Mark. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
We are all looking for wives. Here we are at the Swift's house before we left to come back home. |
