Uganda 2018
Well-- it is happening!  On June 18 I'm heading back to Uganda for 2 weeks.  THREE of my current/former students as well as my youngest daughter are coming too!  We also have one BRAVE parent and two of my friends bringing our group up to 8.  Our plans include visiting 3 schools, one baby home/orphanage and (our main focus) working with the children (and teachers) at the Lulwanda Children's Home in Mbale, Uganda.  The teens in our group will do some landscaping for 2 new cottages at the children's home...  Blog link will be posted here!

I turned my 2015 blog into a Shutterfly photo book.  Here is a link to where you can view it online.

Uganda 2015--
June 9-23

This year I worked with a new school, in a new city and with a new team!  The best part was that one of my Algebra 2 students went with me!  My trip would not be complete without a visit to the Lulwanda Children's Home school in Mbale-- I led a one-day seminar for the school's math teachers.  For the first time in my Ugandan adventures I was able to go on an overnight safari!

Uganda Trip 2013

In June of 2013 I traveled once again to Mbale, Uganda with a group organized by Books are the Beginning--I was there a whole month! The first half of our mission was to organize 20 tons of donations that included a full library for a local school!  The second half of the mission was to work with the local teachers where we led teacher workshops. 

It was an awesome experience!

Hi Friend-- what's for dinner?
This is THE snake that has interrupted a few tutorials (6 ft long Texas rat snake).  She won the battle of the baby birds this past spring...  The picture is of her scaring my poor husband to death as he was attempting to let our dogs out the back door late one evening (notice the door knob!).
