On of my missions in life is to love on and get to know the Somali people here in Louisville. God has really opened my missions heart towards these people and i have really enjoyed getting to know my new Louisville friends. If you have kept up with my blog, you will see – i have taken quite a few pictures of them. I hope one day to visit their country or take a photography mission trip there to just see what kind of life they led before they were forced to leave – some of the people i know here in louisville have lost family members in the process of escaping from their homes in Somalia. One of my dreams as a photographer is to use my photography for not just weddings but to impact the world however i can through pictures and images and to hopefully create in your heart – a love for people all over the world.. just as i love my friends here.

Recently .. we had a cookout just for fun and they got to roast smores and eat hot dogs (beef – of course! they are muslim) And we played for hours on the trampoline.. so much fun!!! We wore those kids out .. haha. They pretty much all fell asleep on the way home. Here are some pictures of all the fun:
