finding teg -- photos from our trip to ethiopia

our cozy life in addis ababa


Our Stuff!!! Seriously! How did we fit all this into 2 suitcases!!! Well, the good thing about having one small closet is that when you 'lose' something, you know exactly where to start digging :)

Also, notice the TV? we turned it on once (the night before we met Teg) to watch some soccer. . . but the funny thing is that all the TVs are connected to the same channel changer (this is not a technical term) so when the folks in the main family room change the channel, the channel on your TV changes too!!! it was kind of interesting for about 5 minutes :)


Sleeping areas. . . i think we were all tired enough to sleep outside in the driveway, so where we slept exactly wasn't nearly as important as the sleeping part.



dining area. . . i think i am wearing this outfit in 90% of the photos. anyway, this is where we would take turns eating. the food was AWESOME!!!!! the really exciting part about mealtime was that this table liked to spontaneously tilt. . .


when it was raining, we played here on the floor . . .

THANK GOODNESS for this garden at the guesthouse. . . if it wasn't raining (which it was a lot) we were out here kicking the soccer ball and smelling the flowers (well, Teg's version of smelling flowers is to yank them off and squish them -- sorry guesthouse gardener!!!)
