JAZOOM just got a little fluffier...




Meet Jessie.


Meet Jessie's birthday present, Bitsy.


Jessie is surprised to find out that Bitsy is not actually a small ball of fur, but a small bunny:



Bitsy is a dwarf bunny, adopted from an island, off the coast of "Back Bay". She is full of charisma and has a strong desire to learn. She loves corners of rooms, Jared Gibo, RockHarbor, and curling up on all her friends' laps. She can't wait to have play dates with Grey, Sage, and Clark.

Introducing her to the family:


Three peas in a pod.

Happy Easter, from Bitsy the Bunny!


Please call/text to schedule your next appointment with Bitsy.

LIFESTYLES OF THE RICH AND THE FAMOUS

Every now and then, JAZOOM let's the paparazzi in on their everyday lives.

Now, we try to stay out of the public eye as much as possible, lying low, focusing on our character and inner beauty.

But once in a while, we find a photographer we believe in. A photographer who not only grasps the essence of JAZOOM, but longs to attain it. A photographer who uses the camera to capture both outer beauty and inner sparkle.

Capturing the charming wit and undeniable charisma of JAZOOM has proven to be a challenge time and time again, and many photographers fall apart under the pressure of such an inconceivable request.

LADIES AND GENITALS,

WE FOUND HIM. The photographer who could capture the impossible.

You are about to witness the brilliant work of TREVER HOEHNE. You could say, JAZOOM has been touched by an Angel.

WAIT.................. WHAT?!

Yep, that's right! Jazoom is back. We're hot, single, and a little taller! Watch out bloggers... the internet just got a little bit spicier. Due to slower internet connections in Uganda and our increasingly demanding social agendas, we were forced to take a six-month leave of absence.

Well folks, the dry spell is over. This is for you, Tom Ritz, Mandy Taylor, and John Neimeyer. Your cupeth is about to overfloweth.

Without further ado,

JAZOOM'S TOP 9: UGANDA EDITION

1. The two men in our lives: Ronnie and Jacob. One loves us, one is deathly afraid of us...



2. Hangin' with our homegirls: The ladies of 31 Bits!




3. 3's a crowd...BUT 4'S A PARTY! The main mode of transportation in Uganda: Boda Bodas. Basically a motorcyle taxi....and we had no problem jazooming around on these bad boys for 4
months.....what now Harley Davidson??? If only we brought more leather... From hanging with our favorite Boda driver Eric, to getting multiple marriage proposals, Bodas always made for a fun, cheap ride. ;) Now for a safe ride...2's the limit....but why not get a little crazy right???.....


4. The Village. We trekked an hour outside Gulu on boda bodas to visit one of our ladies' villages. We cooked local food, danced the night away, learned to speak Luo around the fire, and were repeatedly urged to marry a villager and stay in Uganda forever!!! Now you know JAZOOM, and we couldn't just leave our country roots behind...meet Uganda's newest (and maybe only) cowboy...


5. We're in D'Nile!!!! No but really! We're in it! We rafted it. We conquered it. We drank it. We hung with Bob in it. (Bob the raft guide.)



6. Halloween in Uganda??? Yep, that's right...we partook in the 3rd annual Gulu Halloween Bash...fulfilling a childhood dream of Jessie's....we managed to dress up as trolls! We searched Kampala high and low and found just what we needed for these prize-winning ensambles.


Meet our friend Jamie...the Yellow Troll, and some of the finest bachelors in that time zone, The Village People.


7. Our Honeymoon. Alli's parents treated us to a weekend at the Haven in the beautiful town of Jinja....where we stayed in none other than the honeymoon suite! That's right, JAZOOM honeymooned in a sweet hotel with a SHOWER THAT OVERLOOKED THE NILE!!!!! Alli took what was almost the best shower of her life....but while she was getting a view of the Nile...a maintenance worker got a great view of her! BAH!!!


8. Power's Out! Shortages of water and electricity are not a rare occasion in Uganda....so sometimes you're forced to make your own fun...between a flashlight and a portable ipod player, we found our source of entertainment....at least until the batteries ran out....


9. A Bus Ride to Remember. 2 weekends a month in Kampala to get supplies, also meant many, many hours on the bus. Our final bus ride in Uganda, ended up being one to remember. Alli sat 4 to a three person seat and was peed on by a small child, and Jessie sat in the middle of the back row, a few guys on her right, luggage piled high on her feet, and 4 boxes of none other than Kenya's Finest Chicks on her left. LOUD chicks. Loud chicks for 6 hours. Check it...



So there you have it, JAZOOM'S TOP 9: Uganda Edition. You've laughed with us, cried with us, sang with us, and grown with us. That was a small glimpse of our time in Uganda, and we're sure more stories will be revealed as the journey continues...but for now...sleep well as you dream of where JAZOOM might take you next....
