Since
we threw such an awesome Halloween Wine and Cheese last year, we were asked to
host again this year. I think the guards thought we were completely nuts
as we decorated the inside and outside of the house with all sorts of
skeletons, body parts, a zombie pit, and another flaming pumpkin.

The
party was another success (and another late night). This year we went as
Lydia and Beetlejuice. We only managed
to get Rascal into the dinosaur costume for a few minutes, but it is always
comical.

On
actual Halloween day, our good friend Diana was having a Launch Party for her
new company, Changing Horizons. Changing
Horizons is a tour company that provides unparalleled access to some of East
Africa’s most intriguing and imposing places. They specialize in trips
that explore recent history, taking visitors to sites of past importance,
cultural heritage, and memorial. Our
siblings were some of her unofficial first customers back in January when they
visited us. Since then, Diana has been working to get all the proper
documents in order so she can officially open.
We hope to take the tour during the remainder of our time in Uganda.
The
Launch Party was a huge success with a big turnout. Diana had these
delicious custom drinks made that she called the Bleeding Bullet.
She had ice cubes shaped as bullets which were dyed red inside the
drinks, quite tasty and interesting to see. She even got the famous
Ugandan rapper Navio to perform (it helps when he’s your boyfriend's brother).

We
had a fun night out and wish her all the success now that Changing
Horizons is officially open for business!
