The LDS med. wives got together this week a the most beautiful pool at Arielle Quiton's place, Rainbow Beach Club in CupeCoy. It has an amazing view of the ocean.
The kids had a blast playing.
Eli, Lincoln and Quinn
Boys being boys. They are siting in the top part of the water falls that flows into the pool.
Lincoln and Lacey's Caribbean friends.
We go on a lot of walks. Usually 3 or more a day. We walk Josh to school each morning at 7:30am, we walk and pick him up for lunch ( it's usually pretty HOT out then), then walk him back to school after supper. We love our walks and we also get to see Josh a little bit more while doing them. On our morning walks we usually see local men out sweeping with large palm tree leaves.... We see Josh 2.5 hours a day if that. You'd think we'd get use to this medical student schedule/ life. Nope! It's still hard on all of us. We all miss each other, but I am grateful for the time we get together with our crazy Caribbean life...
I love this quote. It makes me remember there is always something to be grateful for. Even the little time we have with Josh.
The sister missionaries teaching Lincoln's primary class.
They have been having water issues at church, with the rain we had last week caused a cracked in a pipe so the septic tank keeps over flowing, they've emptied it twice in a week and it's still over flowing.... So they've had to turn the water off at church. So no fountain for the kids to grab a drink in a hot church, no toilets other then for emergency uses, which we have to take a bucket of water to help flush the toilet. Plus they have filled the baptismal font up with water for flushing the toilets with. The font doors aren't locked. Drives me crazy a kid could drown. This would never happen back home, actually we had a primary girl go in the water before church she told her mom she wanted to get baptized.
Letter Q- Quail Quater, Queen, Quack.... We also did letter R because Lincon really insisted on doing two letters this week.
Here's a island truck they are so small.
Lincoln in all his glory at the Sarafina Bakery in Marigot.
The French love their bakery's.
Everything always looks so good.
Our first family picture at Fort Louis.
Lacey loves putting on mama's bras.
Here's Lacey's trying to escape from the yard.
The next three pictures are of Cole Bay from a different view. We drove up a steep road and there was an amazing view.
The simple things- We finally got firm grapes at the grocery store this week :) It's been 3 weeks since we've seen firm grapes. Lately they are soft and mushy. Needless to say we haven't benign buying grapes. So we were quit happy to see firm grapes. We take for granted the grocery stores we have back home in Canada. I look ward to the day when I can go grab everything I need at one store.
Our Zuvo UV water filter is causing issues again... So I have been boiling our drinking water again. Not Fun! But I am not willing to drink tap water that hasn't been filtered.
