A Christmas visit with the kids

We rounded up some awesome American families and lots of fun playground toys and headed to see the kids at Leamogetswe Safety Home to share some pre-Christmas cheer.

One of the families even brought a loved Rudolph toy which the boy I was carrying around claimed as his own.  Whenever he would drop it he would point until I handed it to him again.

We made a quick stop at KFC to bring them a lunch they would love. (KFC is hugely popular all over South Africa)

Charlie and Kyle were awesome ketchup squirters, they made sure every kid had PLENTY of ketchup!
 

 All the little helpers, including Mo Mo the dog, who was super popular with the kids.

Kelly did some slow motion videos with the kids skipping rope and hula hooping, they LOVED seeing themselves in action!  I love seeing their smiles.

It was so wonderful to have tons of new toys (hula hoops, soccer balls, bubbles, etc)  to share and lots of families to play with all the kids and give them some attention.  

Noah is a rock star with the kids, he plays soccer with them and lifts them up and spins them around-they love it!
 I loved looking out on their field and seeing balls and toys and happy kids everywhere.

The kids were asking when we would be back and they were also asking us to bring back our friends big dogs who came on the last visit.  We promised to come see them in January.
