Happy Halloween! Aspen was Mulan, and Jared was Captain Jack.




The kids got to go to a Halloween party, and went trick or treating around campus. The students and professors handed out candy, It was LOTS of fun.





Jared is busy making a raft, no sea turtles though.





Jared turned 6 years old, I can't believe my baby is that old. We had dinner at Tomato's, the restaurant catered to the pirates crew while they were here on the island, so the have signed posters from the actors. Jared's favorite is of course Jack Sparrow. We had some friends over for a party, Jared made quick work of opening his gifts. He loved his presents and his new pirate costume. If he had his way he would never get out of it.



Well here is our local butcher, today's specialty, Swordfish. And of course its fresh caught delivered in the back of a dirty pick-up truck and cut by a rusty machete, YUM!



Well here goes nothing, I have tried to get a blog working for long time, I hope this works.


We are back on the Island and the first month of classes are done. WOW! that went fast. Jared's birthday is on Wednesday and he is so excited. Aspen started second grade, she is doing really well. Jared stared first grade and is doing better than we expected him to do.(he is able to focus on the task for longer than 60 seconds). We hung up our Halloween decorations, Pumpkin cut outs. Although they don't celebrate Halloween, the kids are still excited for it. Josh takes his first exam today, he has studied so hard he will do great. Well until next time!
