Before you take a peak.....

You need to be aware this is our old blog. Dave (the blogger) started blogging when, as a family, we went to India for 3.5 months from April - August 2008. This blog is the story of our time there. You'll find lots about our story by going to the 'archives' section of the blog to the left below.

We are loving our Thursdays....

Thursdays are becoming a real feature of our weeks as we go over to Accept (see previous post about this org.) and play/teach with the kids there at the orphanage. All the kids there have HIV and all are orphans. They are just the best kids in the world though...

Today we too over 20 new skipping ropes we had bought from Es and Josh's school in Hereford. The skipping club at the school had helped Es and Josh raise £100 before they came out here and wanted us to take some skipping ropes to teach the kids skipping.

The result was an afternoon not to be forgotten by any of us. Tim's first visit their so he enjoyed it too.... It was an amazing afternoon - none of us wanted to leave......


We are now signed up as volunteers to visit Accept each Thursday as a family!!

All the pics are on our online album which you can access here but here is a sample to whet your appetite.....gorgeous, gorgeous kids who just touched our hearts. Sorry there are a lot of pics but we think you will agree they are worth the blog space...!
