I’ve finally scanned and uploaded the last three months of Makana’s mission pictures that she has been sending us. Things look quite cold in her neck of the woods, but I’m sure she’s adjusting just fine. The new albums are December 2004, January 2005, and February 2005.
From one of Makana’s recent letters:
Well, this week.. I am out of my little piece of heaven (transferred).. I think I cried enough to flood a small village. I knew that the time was coming but I just met so many people that I fell in love with and also the town.
Now.. I am in Omaha.. a sprawling city of 400,000 people plus two major Universities. UNO (D2) and Creighton, a medical school. It’s weird and I feel out of place.
We are in the richer area too which I am not used to but I hear that the ward is wonderful and the Bishop is supportive and so I am excited. Well, I am usually always excited.. but more so. I am thinking I will be here for 3-5 months and then finish in the TC because president wants to keep me proselyting as much a possible.
After months of brain storming and procrastination I have finally put a fresh makeover on the look of the website. I’m still tweaking things here and there, so feel free to send suggestions or let me know if something’s not working. I only had time to check compatibility with IE6 and Firefox 1.0, so I’d especially like to hear from those using other less common browsers.
We will use this front page of the website to post updates on our little family of three. As you can see Kalani is growing by the day and never stops laughing or making us laugh. She keeps us busy at all hours of the day and can be quite the handful. She turns one on March 7th, I’ll see if I can get some nice shots of her shoving cake into her nose. Hopefully I’ll also have time to upload her pics from the last three months. (edit: pics uploaded)
I have lots of ideas to post on this website, it’s just a matter of finding time to put everything together. I have quite a few pictures of Makana to scan and upload. I may post an occasional letter or two from her as well. Robbieand Adam will be leaving on their missions this year — so expect a fewnew photo albums. You may also notice the new hobbyist section, thatcould be fun once I get around to it.
