Special Holiday Wishes
- To my cousin Cameron and his beautiful wife to be Laura who will be getting married shortly. While I had really hoped to make the wedding, it unfortunately is looking like it will not be possible. Anyone working overseas will tell you that the hardest about this job is missing the important days of the people that matter to you most. I’d give you some words of advice but you obviously got the whole relationship thing figured out better then I do! Anyways, Laura welcome to the family!
- To my Uncle David and my Aunt Jessie who just gave birth to a beautiful baby girl Asa! Words cannot even begin to explain how happy we are for you and how blessed on ever level we feel to have this new member of our family.
- To my Mom who will have to spend her first Christmas without her very favorite son!
Mom, please don’t be too mad you were the one told me this is where I was meant to be. Don’t worry though you got Ryan who I’m sure is gonna be happy to help decorate the Christmas tree.
Trip to Timbouctou
Recently, I just got back from a wonderful weeklong trip across Mali for work. I will try and devote a posting to it in the future. For now, here are some pics from the trip.
