Our US visit has been nothing but blessings thus far. We had a great travel experience from Kenya. Though long it was well tolerated by all. Since our arrival we have experienced many things. The kids got to see salt water for the first time. This is a picture of Papa Bill and Tekoa exploring the Puget Sound beach along Fox Island.
Of course we have taken every opportunity for playing in the Park which is another leisure the kids don't get much where we live in Kenya. They love the soft grass and the enormous play equipment. Eliza especially likes the swings.
Though the Snake River is much higher then we expected there are still a few beaches to enjoy. We captured maybe the last few days of warmth and sunshine in the valley and the kids got to revel in the sand and sun. It was so fun watching Eliza attempt to swim in the sand and not the water. Tekoa had tons of fun with his newly met cousin Shaelyn and Aunt Brandi.
Family time is always a highlight and priority. Here we are eating long missed tender roast.
We have also had an opportunity to get away from town and enjoy the mountains. We wanted the kids to get as many outdoor experiences as possible before the cold weather set in. Both Tekoa and Eliza couldn't get enough of the four-wheeler. By the end Tekoa thought it was his "motorcycle"
Life is full of experiences. Some good and some challenging, but it's always important to remember the lesson from Ephesians chapter 5 to make the most of every opportunity. Currently we are off to have a picnic with Jess, Jeremy and the kids.
