Life is a beach, play in the sand we love our new home in GRAND CAYMAN

 
 
 
 
 
 
 




We have been on the island for 11 days and had time to settle in and upload a few pictures of our new island home.  I have never felt so welcome to a new unfamiliar place as I did when we arrived.  We had a welcoming committee of 3 members from the local branch who greeted us off the airplane helped move all our bags to our apartment, helped us get a rental car and took us to the grocery store before the holiday (New Years day).  That same night we were loaned 2 cell phones and introduced to the missionaries, who are doing an awesome job here.  That morning when we awoke all jet lagged we even had a member drop off a fresh loaf of home made bread.  We spent our first few days looking at every availible apartment around and by accident we found the place we ended up signing a lease.  We feel so lucky to be living right on Seven Mile beach within walking distance of school.  Jane and Nolan can't get enough of the water, they hit the pool and beach multiple times a day, which is a big feat considering Ashley does it by herself since I am in school from 7AM-5PM every day.

OMG. Dyyyyying here! I almost cried when I saw these pictures. We miss you guys so bad! But it's so great to hear that you're doing so well. Can't believe the pictures. Payton laughed out loud when he saw the picture of Jane being thrown up in the air and said "I think Ashley said that's not a good idea!" AUGH! So great to hear of your happenings and thrilled to hear that things are going so well. LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
