Greetings from the Ramstack Girls - Katie and Mary.

OK! We finally succumbed to the pressure. We do not want to be signed up for cement mixing duty at high noon.
Some people think we are sisters, mother and daughter, or friends. But the truth is we are Aunt and Niece and we will let you figure out which is which. So, this is our story:
The photo is a picture of a recent adventure to Costa Rica - we survived that trip and thought we were ready for another adventure -- Africa. We are excited about the opportunity to live and experience a new culture and see a part of the world that we have never traveled before. We look forward to meeting our team members and working beside each of you. And also, gaining an appreciation for all the gifts we have been given and sharing them as well. However, being single female homeowners, any home repair skills we pick up will be icing on the cake!
Mary is from Chicago and is one of ten children, and the oldest girl. She has been fortunate to be able to see many parts of the world in her job as project manager for a global pharmaceutical company. When Mary is not traveling for work she enjoys playing a round of golf and gardening. Africa has been one destination that she has wanted to experience and she has also wanted to have an opportunity to volunteer abroad. This trip will achieve both of these goals.
Katie is from Charlotte, North Carolina and is the middle child of three. She has a three year old dog, Luxie (named after Luxemburg from her student abroad experience). She is an account manager for an employment background verification company. She has studied abroad in Europe and has had the opportunity to volunteer as a Habitat for Humanity team member in Florida during a holiday break in college. She thoroughly enjoyed that experience and is back for more. She is very excited about the opportunity to meet people from around the world and share her caring nature with others.
Growing up in a large family has taught us to be patient and also to enjoy life - many of our family memories have been filled with much laughter. We hope to bring this joy of life to this adventure.
See you in Mozambique!
