Wings and a Wedding

 Since this little man is intrigued by planes and is about to make his disappearance on one, we decided to watch the Virgin Atlantic land. It is awesome to feel the wind and hear the loudness as it goes right above your head.








Thursday was preparation for the wedding.
..the men did this part 

while the ladies....
no really we did do work also. I just didn't have time to take pictures of it all.




I gained a mother-in-law on Feb. 8. Five months later I got my father-in-law.  I went to church with Thaddeus the three years I lived in Greenz but never imagined we would one day be family. June 10 marked eleven years since Glenn went missing. Ms. Rose will no longer be lonely.
It was a happy day.




..these two...oh how I love them. Separation is going to be hard!






I love these two pictures so much...



My wonderful husband...yeah I still think that after 5 months of marriage.
I won't bore you with more words on that!


And then the ceremony...
Bill did the honors of giving his mother away!



Was so good to have Twila here to help out with all the stuff!


the "quick family shot"

...then it was the reception. More food then necessary and of course I wanted a little of each. 
I didn't quite get all that was there. Here I have rice and peas, macaroni pie, cabbage salad, potato salad,chicken, pork and mutton!

The LaBorie boys
A beautiful cake

And happily ever after

I was planning to spend his last day on the island with him but a last minute call had me busing up to Laura to substitute. It seems a sickness has struck. Nearly everyone I talk to has had it!

...so here is to remembering my favorite little Coutain nephew (ok my only one)
Jaxson Gregory
I loved bringing him up to the house even though it meant toys being kicked everywhere. 
Anything that is on the ground is meant to be kicked according to him!

 Yeah he loves us can't you tell!
If it's not being kicked than it most likely is being chewed on!

Last night we spent some quality time watching football while his mother was packing.
Little does he know that life will be changing forever for him. Oh to be little and so easily adjust to life changes.

6 months ago you were just taking those first steps...I will miss these reaching arms every time I came by you!
I will see you soon in the states...but those next six months after that without you. sigh...not cool at all!

When I Grow Up

Image
My kids love to sing. Right now for some reason they keep picking the song "When I Grow Up." The chorus goes: "When I grow up I wanna be just like you, so don't disappoint me I can see what you do. If you follow Jesus I will follow him too, so don't disappoint me, I can see what you do." Don't forbid little children to come unto Him For such is the kingdom of God, Always set an example that points out the way And do what the Lord has to say. Don't forget little children become big folks some day For what you see becomes what you do. If you walk with Jesus, I'll walk with Him too. So don't forget, I'm close behind you. I really like the song but when it's time for the chorus it gets me every time. Maybe it is those 12 hands and 60 fingers that are pointing my way. Today I pointed back at them and they had a few words to say as soon as the song finish! "Miss....WE ARE FOLLOWING YOU! You can't foll...

February

..here it is. It's hot, dry, and breezy. The month is almost halfway gone already. sigh. It's hard to believe it's been one whole year already that I've been married to this wonderful man. He truly is so extremely good for me. Marriage is a wonderful thing. It's good to have the first year behind us though. We look forward to many more! February 7 is Independence Day. The churches had a picnic and cooked the national dish. Kyla...or little Cindy as I call her. oil down...it was deliciously made by Sammy. A few wore their Independence colors!  Sailing festival was also held the other weekend on the beach. I was wishing so badly I had remembered my camera but alas phone pictures had to work! Sports Day is coming up for most schools. I went to Wesley College Sports day on Wednesday. It was good to see how secondary schools do it! I went in support of Alana's son Joshim. He didn't disapp...

of police and goodbyes

Image
It was the night before some people departed the states to the wonderful Isle of Spice. Who wouldn't stay out late? Well...I would..and I did. The regrets came in the morning with only 2 hours of sleep and off to work at an unearthly hour. I work when I can...even if it is only a few hours. I felt like I had to keep redoing things...my brain was malfunctioning. Coffee was needed but I didn't want to be the reason for potty breaks on the way to the airport...thus I refrained. I left work in my own little world oblivious to a police officer sitting nearby. I believe he was sleeping as well..much to my benefit. With suitcases packed on that Ford truck we began to "RUN IT"...traffic moves well most days. I try to keep with traffic. They can usually break radar for you. The SUV lost me when it got to about 25 over the speed limit. It was a good thing! There was enough of a gap between us that officer had his nose out in traffic as I tried to quickly change lanes. Sorry fo...
