First Family Vacation as 7

One month ago we took a trip to South Africa with my brother, Bob and a few friends. I have not done a good job getting the pictures off of my camera so here they are a month late. Highlights of the trip were... Polita and Nthabeleng seeing the ocean for the first time. They were amazed at the size and sound of it. I was amazed at how hard it is to get sand out of their hair! Elijah, Faith, Mercy and Bryan went zip lining for the first time ever and it was a crazy big and high gorge that they went over (Oma - you are next for the zip line!!!). I can not believe how brave my 3 older kids were with the zip line. I would have gone too but.. someone needed to take photos and watch the younger two cause they did not weigh enough to try it, even if they were brave enough (which they weren't cause they take after their new mommy who is a chicken)!!! I just loved being with my family and some close friends. Polita and Nthabeleng fit so well into our crazy family and they did super amazing on our first of many family adventures. Here are a few highlights in picture form:
