Kelsey: A week in instagram

Really its more like a couple weeks. So we arrived and we were all yay America! And then I got malaria. And then I got better and then we got engaged, yay engaged, and then I got bronchitis. Denis has been extremely patient with me being sick for like 3 weeks straight. He has been busy learning to drive on the right side of the road. Tonight we cooked Ugandan food for American family, made me so homesick for Uganda.



Flowers are still in bloom! We arrived early enough in the fall to see the colors. I love the colors! When we first arrived and were landing in Newark the forests were completely red. It was beautiful.




Hello beautiful backyard. Do you want us to play soccer on you?




Family photo fun.



There we go, everyone looking the right way except for Will.




We made a spur of the moment one day road trip to Michigan and got to see Stef!




Guys. You might think that you have had good waffles. But you have not. These waffles are a Todd Little specialty and I do not think I am exaggerating when I say they are the greatest thing in the world.

Obviously only to be enjoyed with real maple syrup. If you have fake maple syrup in your fridge you walk over there and throw that in the garbage right now. Then you hang your head in shame. Only real maple syrup is acceptable!




Gordon's name means handsome, but we should have named him "looks sweet but is actually pure evil." This cat has been terrorizing large dogs, including Becky's adorable puppy!




I pretty much love all large bodies of water, but there is a special place in my heart for Lake Michigan. 




Denis and Santa have really gotten close lately.




Becky's super sweet puppy Daisy! She is very excited!




Grammy and Pop-pop. I found this old picture of my Dad's mom and dad. They were pretty amazing. 




Why do people drink real champagne? After Welch's invented fake champagne I see no reason to ever suffer through the real stuff. I love me some sparkling grape juice. 




Thanksgiving! My aunt and cousin set a beautiful table. So warm and cozy and thanksgivingy.




I might be taking a lot of pictures of my ring. I keep thinking I will not be that girl... and then I am. I have been engaged for a week and a half and I have so far gotten chocolate and paint all over my ring.



There he is. :)

  1. You have bronchitis?! What the h? Also, we need to take more advantage of being in the same country and talk on the phone more. Get better, sicko.

  3. Yay! What a cute picture of the Daisy dog. I was hoping that her Gordon trauma might make her more polite and tentative around our cats, but so far no luck.
