A.R.Celebration!

Emma tucking Reese & Henry in

as the sun went down

Emma was very excited last night as we put the puppies to bed and she got into her own pjs: She was on pins and needles over her A.R. party today at school. Both she and Tristan have been in Rosslyn Academy's accelerated reading program pretty much since we arrived in Kenya. She along with six other second graders were treated to a Java House picnic today by the High School fields.

The kids playing games before dessert

Erica made brownies and sprinkle-covered ice cream for dessert, and we all played several games (A part of the reward was that the kids were able to miss a class for the party!)
