Day 1: Paris to Africa

We are here! The trip from Paris to Africa was simple, since the airplane had individual tv screens the kids watched movies the whole time while the parents slept.

Upon arrival, we made one stop at the bank and then went straight to the orphanage. We met Little Matheny! We startled him pretty bad that first meeting.

Emily and Titus are doing great, Emily's favorite thing about Africa is "that cute little boy." If we can get the internet to work, I hope you can see his face tomorrow.

We are so blessed to be here. Thank you, thanks to you all.
