South Africa Heritage Day

Heritage Day in South Africa.  We were supposed to dress in our own heritage dress, but we
decided to adopt Africa.  Dad is a Chief from Nigeria (the shop keeper guaranteed that the hat
is authentic so it must be) and I'm dressed traditional Zulu.  Of course, Grandpa was a "hit!"
The workers at the office all call him 'Captain' and expect candy everyday.

Two of our favorite people--Sister Kaye Hatch in everyday South African dress and 
           Lerato (Lee) Herbert who is an indispensable computer aid in our office.  We are 
so much better at our job since she has joined us.  She is dressed 
in a beautiful Indian dress.

More from the Area Office:  Dlamini, Lerato, Tirhane, Dominic Tshabalala the National Public Affairs Director, and Thoba Karl-Halla.

I think Kay and I could both use a little sun!  We look a little pale for Africa.

Elder and Sister Hartman--dear friends.  He wrote the "Color Code" Book and we have had a lot
of fun with that here at the Area Office.

  1. Love the costumes... I'm guessing we might have an African weird Santa next year? :)
