Travis & Mindy: Africa Day 8- "Child Sponsorship" (Ghana)
http://travisandmindy.blogspot.com/2010/12/africa-day-8-child-sponsorship-ghana.html
Friday, December 24, 2010. Africa Day 8- "Child Sponsorship" (Ghana). Children are such a blessing from God! I would love to have children of my own someday. But my husband and I have been married three years now and still haven’t been able to start a family. We trust that God will bless us in His timing. But today….He put someone special into our lives. His name is Alfred! And I am his new World Vision child sponsor. I wish you could meet him! How can I really make a difference in Alfred’s life? Secondl...

Travis & Mindy: Bangkok, Thailand
http://travisandmindy.blogspot.com/2011/03/bangkok-thailand.html
Wednesday, March 2, 2011. Yes, this is a real chimpanzee! The chimpanzees opened their act by flying in on ziplines, rocking out as a chimpanzee rock band, then doing a boxing match between themselves. so wouldn't happen in the U.S! Drinking a Pepsi from a plastic bag bc the street vendors don't let you keep the bottles. Posted by Mindy Mizell. Wednesday, March 02, 2011. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Travis & Mindy: Christmas 2010
http://travisandmindy.blogspot.com/2011/01/christmas-2010.html
Sunday, January 16, 2011. On vacation with Mindy's family in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. Mindy loved driving the snowmobile solo! Mindy and Dad skiing Wolfcreek. Mindy never uses poles when skiing. Travis had an eye injury and couldn't go snowmobiling or skiing. So Mindy took a picture to crop him in later. Catching up with good friends Brad, Wendy and Annabelle in Dallas. Travis got new shoes and a golf driver for Christmas. Mindy got new boots and a black vest for Christmas! Posted by Mindy Mizell.

Travis & Mindy: Tanzania Day 2- "Microloans & Fish" (Tanzania)
http://travisandmindy.blogspot.com/2010/12/tanzania-day-2.html
Wednesday, December 8, 2010. Tanzania Day 2- "Microloans and Fish" (Tanzania). Today's journey to Manyire, Tanzania to visit the Shirima family has me questioning what makes a GOOD Christmas gift? Is it a new IPad, snazzy new shoes, or a gift certificate to your favorite store? Or Is it how much money someone spends or how excited the recipient is when they open the wrapping paper on Christmas morning? You'd probably look at me like I was crazy! Getting money .but then having to pay it back?

Travis & Mindy: Africa Day 9- "Orphans and Vulnerable Children" (Ghana)
http://travisandmindy.blogspot.com/2010/12/africa-day-9.html
Friday, December 24, 2010. Africa Day 9- "Orphans and Vulnerable Children" (Ghana). I knew today was going to be tough on me. I’d braced myself since the beginning of our trip to Africa for what would likely be the most emotionally trying day. Today’s feature item in our Christmas Gift catalog was what World Vision calls OVC’s…orphans and vulnerable children. We were going to a small village in Ghana to meet four children who had lost both their parents. Until this trip, I’ll admit…I didnR...Today, I ...

Travis & Mindy: Africa Day 5- The Power of Prayer
http://travisandmindy.blogspot.com/2010/12/africa-day-5-final-day-in-tanzania.html
Friday, December 24, 2010. Africa Day 5- The Power of Prayer. Being in Africa for December, it’s sometimes difficult to remember that Christmas is just a few weeks away! We’ve been wearing short sleeved shirts, swatting away mosquitoes and enjoying warm, sunny days. Yet, as we hit our halfway point on our True Spirit of Christmas tour, what happened this final day in Tanzania was a stark reminder that December 25th is nearer than I think. Yet I wasn’t prepared for what happened this afternoon. For Helen,...

Travis & Mindy: Africa Day 10- "Medicine & Supplies" (Ghana)
http://travisandmindy.blogspot.com/2010/12/africa-day-10-medicine-supplies-ghana.html
Friday, December 24, 2010. Africa Day 10- "Medicine and Supplies" (Ghana). I was a little worried that today’s item in the World Vision Christmas Gift Catalog could be too boring to feature….Medicine and Supplies. I know. Yawn. I didn’t know if there was a way to make antibiotics, antifungals or de-worming medications sound cool or exciting. I was wrong! I could make a movie out of the compelling story we heard today! Their only other option was to find medicine….quickly. The little boy was treated with ...

Travis & Mindy: Africa Day 11- "Water & Wells" (Ghana)
http://travisandmindy.blogspot.com/2010/12/africa-day-11-water-wells-ghana.html
Friday, December 24, 2010. Africa Day 11- "Water and Wells" (Ghana). Unfortunately, I spent our last full day shooting in Africa on my back, sick in my hotel room. I couldn't keep any food down and slept for nearly 32 hours straight. I was so glad to see my bedside table chock full of bottles of water to drink every time I woke up. Ironic, that on this same day our team was covering water in Ghana. In Africa, clean water is hard to come by! I don't know what made me sick. We suspect it was something ...
