One more week

Here we go again torn between two lands. One more week until spring break. We have started (as much as we can start) to plan our exit from Cayman. One more week until spring break. We have our tickets to Halifax and possibly a place to stay when we get there. One more week until spring break. Again we are doing this whole moving thing and it's a lot of work. One more week until spring break. We have to save money, sell some stuff, pack up the rest, say good bye to Gramma and Dude (that is going to suck) and try to stay sane through it all. One more week until spring break. Help!

We had a great visit with some cousins last week. One more week until spring break. The kids had such an amazing time hanging out with them. One more week until spring break. It was so nice to see our kids just relax and have a fun time playing with kids they felt comfortable with. One more week until spring break. Silver still doesn't have a good connection with kids here. One more week until spring break. He does try but most boys in his class play soccer every recess and it's hard to break into that. One more week until spring break. He cried pretty hard when the cousins left.

One more week until spring break. Trinity has made a couple of good friends but she loved playing with her cousins too. One more week until spring break. She can't wait for us to get to a place where we can get another dog (three if she had her way, and a rabbit, turtle, frog, donkey........). One more week until spring break.

We plan to take full advantage of the Island while we are still here. One more week until spring break. We will have as many beach days as possible, pool days, time with Grandparents, and time not wearing snow suits. One more week until spring break. Did I mention it's only one more week until spring break? One more week until spring break. We're all pretty excited about it:) One more week until spring break.

Two months, two shmonths

I took these pictures today March 7th. We needed to get out of the house for a relaxing walk.


So it's been about two months and I can't remember everything that has happened but here are a few things.

We have spent over 200 dollars seeing the foot doctor. Silver got some crazy warts that just wouldn't leave and he had to have them removed. It was horrible. Needles, screaming, crying and a bill at the end.

Trinity also had some medical issues. She some how got some kind of fungus on her hands. It kind of turned her hands dark brown and then started to peel. We again saw the Doctor and again got a bill for some fancy cream. It's almost cleared up.

Being a Canadian I still can't get used to paying for Doctor visits. It's sucked up all our fun money for the past two months. Sucks.

We had sports day at the school last month. It was a really big deal. They run all sorts of races and some other stuff. All the kids in the school are split into 'houses'. Then the 'houses' compete against each other. Our house the Saints won! Yippie. Silver had a seriously ruff day. He was only signed up for two races because he was out sick the day the all signed up. So he was bummed. He got hit on the head with a cricket ball. They HURT. It was really hard to watch him have such a crappy day. Trinity on the other hand had a pretty good day. She ran a bunch of races and won some second and third place ribbons. Good for her!

Then came awards day. Silver got FIVE awards. Two for honor roll, one perfect attendance for the first 1/4 and I can't remember the other two. He also got a medal for being involved in the soccer team. He really earned that one. What a ruff time he had but he kept playing.

Trinity got 4 awards. Two for honor roll and again I can't remember the other two. But she was feelin great!

I was feeling healthy for one week and now again have caught something. My throat is crazy sore and if I don't take advil I can't even function. Half of the pre school class was out sick on Friday. Sickness just rules that class.

I finally got my camera but haven't had much time to snap photos. I am trying to get back to enjoying some hobbies. I have to force myself too. I half painted a picture I wonder if I will finish. O.K that's all for now. I will try to keep up with this from now on. Our internet connection has been really crappy the past few weeks so I haven't been on much. If it gets fixed I may be inspired to write more.
