Camana Bay!!

 
 
 
 
 

We love love love Camana Bay!! Every wednesday we go to story time which was originally at Book and books, the cute bookstore here, but it has gotten so popular that they moved it to the movie theater, so they do 3 songs and 3 books, all which are projected on the big screen... it is super fun. Jane has been dying to go to a movie, so that is a bonus... after storytime we go play in the fountains, they have two fountains, a small fountain that is shaded that the little ones play in, and big ones, which on wednesday and saturday they bring out these huge carts full of giant foam blocks and they can play with in the fountain, it is super fun for the kids... they also have a farmers market that on wednesday, so we met up with Aubrey and Ayla, a friend from church and her daughter and hung out for about 4 hours!! It was super fun, we then came home and had lunch, and then jane's friend Allie and her family invited us to play in the fountains and have a dinner picnic, so we walked back. Jane told Nolan that she went with him to play with his friend Ayla (she is 10 months) so he had to go back with her to play with Allie and Nora Ruth... too cute..

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.
