What we have been doing

Things have started to become normal around here. Or as normal as things can be living by the beach. Walker made her first confession last weekend at church. We attend Our Lady of Mt Carmel Catholic Church. We have become regularls on Sundays. We all go to mass together then the kids go to Sunday School. While the kids are ins Snunday School Jay and I go across the street and have breakfast. It is a nice way to start a Sunday. Back to the first confession. Walker was very nervous but of course she raised her hand to go first! She is going to have her first communion sometime in May. That usually happens in 2nd or 3rd grade but they do it when ever they can here!

Today we went snorkeling at Trunk Bay. Trunk Bay has an underwater snorkel trail for you to follow with signs telling you what everything is and what is nearby. The kids took their underwater cameras and took some pictures. Quinn and I saw a turtle and Jay and Walker saw tons of fish. It was pretty easy snorkeling considering we were pulling two kids along. Both kids take noodles with them to make the swimming easier.

Jay is working hard each day. We are lucky that he gets to come home for lunch. The kids are enjoying their schooling. Yes there are some tears each day, Walker, but we are getting into a groove. Each week we try to squeeze in a hike or trip to the beach. On Wednesday afternoons we head to Coral Bay to play with other kids on a local field.

As you can tell, it is a rough life here but we manage!
