We have been in South Africa for a year now. In many ways, it feels like an eternity, in other ways like we just arrived.

I have tried blogging, but realize that I am just not cut out for it. I should not be feeling guilty for only blogging occasionally and wondering where time has gone by in-between. What does make me feel guilty though is the cost for not using it, especially in $ terms when there are many other sites where it is free. So, I have decided to go for a free blog and to stick to Facebook and Twitter. Please feel free to look us up on Facebook and Frikkie's Twitter account is called, "Bringinghope." I will be updating this blog one one time over the weekend after the USA vs England World Cup soccer game that the family will be attending in Rustenburg on Saturday. GO USA!!!!!!
