The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. Psalm 28:7

Wild Flowers.......Orchids

The kids and I took a couple walks this past week and found some of the prettiest wildflowers.
Surprisingly, several were wild orchids!
Beautiful!!
Made me think of the bitter cold back home with all the plants and most trees bare and dormant while here in paradise things are just blooming!
God is good!






Bon Fire & Popcorn

We had a great time last weekend as we went to the farm late and had a bon fire and popcorn.
I wish some of the other pictures would have turned out but they didn't.





Holidays are flying by!

This holiday season is flying by and I'm so out of touch with true time! I thought it had only been a week since I updated my blog but try like 2 1/2 weeks?!!

Where does the time go?

Well, we are doing well and still kind of floating on euphoria since our residency was granted on November 6th.

The kids are doing great in school, in fact the girls will be completing 2 grade levels this year!
Mat is really picking up the pace too with his high school classes. Finally, it seems like the old Mat is back since his bad concussion.

We are getting ready to do the christmas program tonight which I will post pictures and maybe some video.

We are also gearing up for a great holiday outreach with the youth and friends next weekend. More on that later.......

Chris has been really busy teaching, in fact he was gone 5 days and 4 nights this last week. I think he prefers being on the ambulance to teaching!

I have been extremely busy with my job which I am so thankful for. God has been so good to me and my family. I am learning lots of new computer skills and enjoying doing the work that they have so graciously trained me to do! I had to travel to belize city a couple times and that was an experience trying to find my way around that place. But all went well as I constantly called on the Lord for help and direction.

The kid's school christmas program is in a couple weeks and I will post pics from that too.

Have a wonderful holiday season!
From all of us in Belize!
