Dry Season

Yes, dry season is here.  The dust and dirt blows around and the grass is drying up.  They say that there has been more rain than normal for this time of the year, so we are grateful.  
Here is a little peak into our month of March.



Right after church one Sunday, we went on a church hike/picnic.  We crossed over this very nice bridge to an island called 'hog island'.  One idea is that this island looks like a hog head from a distance.


It was windy but beautiful.  The children enjoyed playing in the water and gathering sea shells.

These are two peas in a pod.  It's been so much fun having another girl in the family.

It is kite season so our family went on a picnic and tried to get our kites ready for the school kite day.






And no, anxious grandmothers - that's not a 30 foot drop off right behind the children.
  It's actually more like 40 feet. :-)

This is also tourist season so we often see these huge cruise ships docked in St. George's.
 


Marv and I were still trying to wake up one early morning when our children blessed us with a show and songs.  Not sure what the dress-up theme was other than see how many things you can wear.
 

Grenadian's tie their goats out in the football field during the day and we enjoy watching these triplets dance around and play.  So cute!
 

We are having Easter vacation this week and next week.  We have been trying to fit in family time and 'getting ready for VBS' time this week.  The Faith Seniors from PA are flying in tonight (Sat.) and will be teaching VBS this next week.

Jen cleaned out her kitchen on Mon. and found an ice cream maker so we HAD to try it out.  We've had homemade ice cream twice this week now. 


On Thurs., our family plus Miss Wilma, hiked out to the end of the runway and watched 2 jets fly in.  You will notice on our family picture that the lights for the runway are right on the other side of the fence.  It's quite the feeling to be right under a huge aircraft that is seconds away from landing. 


And this is us! 
We are so grateful for God's grace in our lives. 
Please keep praying for us!
