    Yes, it’s so interesting to hear more about Kenya and the different life style. When visiting your grand parents in the village, I assumed they probably choose to live there, cause that’s where they’ve always been. It makes me feel so sad to see the homes and how little they have. Please don’t take this the wrong way, but do they accept help from your family to maybe upgrade a bit and have more comfortable surroundings?? It’s good to again see that many people don’t have what we do. I thought it so sweet to again see the love you all have for each other as you sat out there in the fields and everyone has a smile. Your family touches my heart so much.

I have worked a lot with Kenyans. Now I realize why they usually send money home to their family's. My suggestion, when you move to your new house, you purchase a new mattress for every person. I remember you put some in storage but I am concerned of snakes, mice and other animals getting in them. I would also consider an intercom system since the house is so large. Thank you for showing us the house. 😊

    Glad y'all had a wonderful trip to Kenya and are safely back home. Know you will be so happy to have your new home finished - coming along nicely, although it's the inside/finishing work that seemed so long in our home building. Well worth it though!

    The new house is HUGE! I like the view you got when the trees were taken down around the lake. It just looks much cleaner.

    There was a lagoon in our old neighborhood and it definitely stunk! Never throw a rock in lol
