Are You Ready for Halloween?

October 28, 2009 / 26 Comments

Halloween is one of my family’s favorite holidays! We love to get dressed up together and have always gone all out! I thought I’d put together a big gallery of all my Halloween pics from the last few years, and some from when we were kids!

Last year I was debating between dressing up as Wonder Woman, Princess Jasmine or Cleopatra… and in the end I went with Wonder Woman. This year I have decided to go as Princess Jasmine!! She’s one of my all time favorite Disney characters!

What are you guys being for Halloween this year?

Oh, and don’t forget… there is still time to enter our Costuming Up with the Kardashians contest! You can win a bunch of cool prizes and the grand prize winner will receive a phone call from Khloe, Kourtney and me! Enter here!

There are over 40 pics in the gallery so make sure you look through!

A Visit to the Children’s Feeding Center

July 20, 2009 / 23 Comments

We all went to a feeding center where kids and older women were fed
twice daily. We made them milk by mixing powder and hot water and fed
them slices of bread. These kids were so appreciative!
Khloe had a camera and they were all in such awe of it! She would
take pictures and then show them their own photo and they would
scream! They were so lovable and they were crying when we left!

The older women have their own shop where they make everything from
clothes to beaded jewelry. Khloe and I bought a bunch of really cool bracelets! They all sang and danced, which was pretty emotional. This was one of my favorite moments from the whole trip!

Lion Cubs Welcome us to Africa

July 20, 2009 / 64 Comments

After we met with students from the Leadership Academy, we headed over
to Lee-Anne Summers‘ house for a cocktail party and dinner! The dinner was to welcome us all to Africa and
it was a chance for us to share what our experience had been like so far.

Lee-Ann wanted to make this dinner special so she surprised us with baby
lion cubs!!!! I had never in my life gone to any dinner party like this! These cubs make the loudest roar but were so tiny and harmless! They brother and sister 10-week-old cubs. This was a dinner we will never forget!

African Leadership Academy: Future World Leaders!

July 17, 2009 / 14 Comments

I was so impressed with these students. They were so smart and so ambitious! The Diamond Empowerment Fund is going to help sponsor this amazing
school called the African Leadership Academy. The kids were kind enough to meet with us and share their
stories of how they basically came from nothing and have had the
opportunity to get free college funding, and when they graduate if they cannot find a job then they never have to pay back their tuition fees.
They supply all the skills to create their own business so they can
start working while still at the university.

Good luck to them in everything they do! The great future leaders of Africa will definitely come from these schools!

Reggie, Khloe and I go Back to School

Reggie, Khloe and I visited a village designed for all of the miners. We had lunch and visited a school! Our season three finale aired the day before our visit so they were all big fans! We had no idea our show was even popular in Botswana! How crazy!?

Diamonds are Botswana’s Best Friend

July 16, 2009 / 71 Comments

The Diamond Empowerment Fund has brought us to Botswana to show us how
the diamond industry has changed the life of the Botswana people. I
used to assume after watching the movie Blood Diamonds that diamonds
were not acceptable to buy from Africa. However, it is the complete
opposite! When diamonds are purchased, the whole country can survive! In Botswana there used
to be 10 schools but the diamond industry has now funded 300 schools!

We went into the largest diamond mine! It was huge! The trucks they use
to carry the diamonds are 6 million dollars, and each tire is $70,000!
How crazy is that?! Look at how small we look in comparison to the tire!
We saw all the raw diamonds and the process they have to go through in
order to get them ready to be delivered to stores! Thank you DeBeers
for that amazing experience!
