It is nice to be home

Ok, so we have been in the USA for about a week. It has been wonderful hanging out with the Wollersheim family in Wisconsin. Ashley has had a complete makeover since arriving home. She has had a haircut, eyebrows waxed, facial, french manicure, she has bought new cloths, make-up...etc...etc. To prove it we did a before and after. The first photo is our first day back and the second photo was after a few days of shopping and spa treatments. Ashley said she feels like a whole new person.







This is one of the last photos I was able to take in Mali. It is a giant storm rolling in along the Niger river near the center of Bamako.

When I arrived home I had got to meet my niece for the first time as she was born a month after I left. She is awesome!

My mom got me an ice cream cake to welcome us home.

  1. Joe and Ashley,

    It's good to have you home and safe. I feel like the past two years didn't even happen. Even though your niece is on her way to being two years old. It's good to have you here playing and holding Anna. May the next couple weeks be fun and relaxing as you travel to see family and friends. Oh, Ashley your hair cut looks very cute and more you. I can't believe how long your hair got. It must feel nice to do all the things that you waited so long to do. Thanks again for going to Mali, Africa. I had a great time reading,looking at pictures and most of all writing on your blog.

    Love
    Jody
