Home in the valley


this photo cracks me up because there is an address on the window


Spider web in our bathroom

I love that he is laughing

the first home we visited in the valley - The 12 yr old headed household

Marcus - one of the kids at GGA
His eyelashes killed me -so long and beautiful

Khanysile and I - right before we got in the van to leave

This is one of my favs of Khanysile. I think it shows her beauty and her pain

Jon and Debbie (this is actually from year two)
We moved all those cinder blocks... we worked hard.

Girls practicing the hand clapping game we taught them

The elephant as it was charging us

Fish Eagle

a nicer elephant (taken in year two)
