An Evening Like Home

Last night was a very non African evening. We just hung out at the house. Made some pizza. Drank some wine. And played some Ping Pong. We had a good time though. Not sure what is in store for today. Will and Joe (Will's roommate) don't normally have much to do on the weekends. Kim wants a lazy day of watching "How I Met Your Mother" and I am perfectly good with that. Will is making pancakes and chicken sausage for breakfast. His friends (and now ours) are still here from last night.

We are trying to decide what to do for the weekend. There is a park in Nairobi we may go to tommorrow. Kim is desperate to see some animals. And I wouldn't mind myself. Get out and do a little something other than be around the house.

Monday we plan on beginning our construction projects at the LCC and at their day school they have. Assuming we can buy lumber. We stopped at the lumber yard on Friday and they didn't have any wood. Supposedly they will have some on Monday. If not we might not get anything done. The sad thing is the nicest hardware store was in the grocery store. We went to 4 different hardward stores looking for a skill saw and only found 2. The first was $450 bucks so that was a no. The second was $130 from the grocery store so we decided to buy it. I just can't make myself do construction with a handsaw. Spoiled I guess. The three projects we have are to put a new roof on a kitchen, build a chicken coop, and build a rabbit pen. I think we can get them all done.

Ok its my turn now. For those of you who might be confussed, this is Kimmie talking!!!!! This place is really amazing. One moment you are in the slums and the next you are looking through hills and valleys that you only see in the movies. I am loving the food, so far its mostly vegetables. We have had meat with most of our meals although Will tells me they don't usually eat a whole lot of meat. At first I thought Steven would starve but he is being a good sport and eating all his vegetables. This morning everyone one is just kind of laying around talking while Will cooks breakfeast. Hopefully we will get to see some animals soon so I can post some cool videos. I am having so much fun driving Steven crazy with my camera :) I promised my sister I would let Steven film some so I would actually be in the video so I apologize now for future clips starring me :)
