Black Friday...

...Is not celebrated in Uganda.

Happy Thanksgiving!

So I'm living with a whole bunch of American's and with Thanksgiving being strictly American, we decided to celebrate at our house.  Every student paired up and made something (I made cornbread stuffing) so we had a ton of food.  We also had a ton of people, I think it totaled something like 30 people... students, staff, our cook and some families from America.  Anyhow it was a good time.

My favorite part was the fact that I won a slap bet last night so I truly got to celebrate Slapsgiving today!  (You would only get this if you watch how I met your mother).


I went to Kitgum last weekend!  It was amazing to go back and see the girls.  It was incredible to see the transformation, some girls that I only saw smile once or twice were laughing with the rest of the girls.  So great.

The education fund I'm working on is getting approved in the higher levels of FH and seems to be going well.  Everyone that's looked at it has said that it should be approved.  So we'll see.  One of the girls even wants to go to secondary school and then nursing school. I just have a lot of hope in this and how it could turn out for those girls.  Again, will update as I learn more.


Andd we leave Uganda in two weeks from today.  Insane.  I can't believe it's so close to the end.
