School starts and waiting for Embassy

Five kids started school yesterday.  It was Amy's first day of Kindergarten and Kali's first day of first grade.  Lana and Megan started 3rd grade and Jacob is in 8th grade.  Everyone had a great day. Colin starts his Sophomore year next week (this week he is volunteering at a camp for foster kids).  Luke has twice a day practices with the West Valley College soccer team and starts classes Aug 29.

We are still waiting for the US Embassy to clear us for travel.  Everyone is getting in their school routine and will soon be settled in, so I am ready to plan my trip to Ethiopia.
