Pictures from the Taylor's Visit

Here are a few pictures of when Keith's parents were visiting. (from over a month ago, sorry!)  We didn't get too many before our memory stick became "unreadable," but we got a few.  Anyway, we were really glad that Bill and Katherine were able to come and visit.  It was SO good to see them and we had a great time hanging out with them.  

We are also making sure that everyone knows, VISITORS ARE WELCOME!  We would LOVE it if more people came down to visit!  (You can stay in our extra bedroom for FREE!)

(All of these pictures were taken at Cabrits National Park)

9 days of nothing but Twilight!

Now that I am only working  a few hours a day, I have had a little bit more time on my hands. So, I gave in and started reading Twilight. I borrowed Twilight a week ago from Sunday and started reading later that afternoon.  By Wednesday, I was in dire need of New Moon (the 2nd book) and by Friday, I was on to Eclipse (the 3rd one).  I finished Eclipse Saturday night and started Breaking Dawn (the 4th one) on Sunday evening.  By Tuesday, I was done.  Completely obsessed, but done.  Other than working and teaching English class for 2 days last week, I honestly did nothing other than read from the time I woke up until the time I couldn't keep my eyes open any more at night.  I have never read a book that I honestly "couldn't put down" until now.  (Harry Potter was close though)  Needless to say, the books were better than I expected them to be and I might reread them shortly, but at a much slower pace.   :)

Oh, thanks Keith for eating Soup so much last week for dinner.  You are so great to understand that I just "didn't have time to cook."

One month and many events later.....

It may appear as if I have abandoned by blog, but the fact is, I have just had zero desire to even look at my blog.  Why?  I'm not sure, I've just been really busy, our memory stick for our camera stopped working so pictures weren't a motivator, and when I get home I have 2 things on my mind: food and sleep.  My job working all day is over now though, and I'm at just 2 1/2 hours, so hopefully I will be more committed to blogging.  Quite a bit has happened in the past month, so here is a short update:

**Keith made it through 2nd semester, which is great.  It wasn't very fun.  He didn't do to badly either!  (Good Job Babe!)

**Keith's parents came to visit at the end of August.  We had a lot of fun touring the island with them and just being able to visit and enjoy their company.

**Keith and I decided it was time we had a break from this island and we headed to St. Lucia, which is 2 islands over.  We stayed at Coconut Bay Resort (which was all inclusive) and lived the life that many of you back home imagine us living:  Relaxing in hammocks on the beach or chairs by the pool, reading (or napping), and drinking pina coladas all day long.  For one awesome week we answered to no one, ate all of the food we wanted whenever we wanted, had unlimited food and drinks, received a free massage, and wore our swimming suits all day long.  It was awesome.  Unfortunately, we couldn't take pictures because our memory card was screwed up.

**Now, we are back in the grind of everyday life on "The Rock" as our beautiful island is often times called.  We do enjoy it here, but Coconut Bay was more our style!
