Photo countdown #9 (by Thom)

In 2005 we arrived in Mali as new missionaries with the C&MA. For Amanda it was her first time in Africa and for me it was the first time taking on the role of bookkeeper. A lot has changed in our lives over the past 4 years, not the least of which is the additions of Miriam and Hannah to our lives. Now, we have only 9 days left in Mali before we return to the United States for furlough and eventually our move to Dakar, Senegal where we'll serve in a more regional capacity. With that in mind, here starts a countdown of my eighteen favorite pictures during our time in Mali. 9 pictures of the twins and 9 other pictures. Today is Number 9:

Miri and Hannah love to climb on my scooter. I think they believe they're getting away with something when they're up there.

#9 Non-Twin Division

This is a watermelon stand behind our house. I took the picture from our roof. Where do you buy your fruit?
