News From The Past Month

I have had quite a few complaints because I have not been updating the site. I promise I will be better this summer. Trent will be here so I am sure I will have lots of great pictures to add. I downloaded all of our photos from the past month last night, so I will try to add some in the next few days.

Since I last wrote…….

I had a great trip to Wisconsin. It was a short trip, but it was still fun. I did a little shopping Kristin. The rest of the time I spent with Trent and visiting with family. One night we had a slumber party for Trent and Emma. I made a scavenger hunt for them and we had root beer floats and watched a movie. They loved it! It was good to be back for a couple days. Travis was very jealous!

Batabano Carnival was a fun weekend. It is a Caribbean tradition. I guess it’s a lot bigger on other islands, but I thought they did a pretty good job here too. It was the 25th anniversary of celebrating the carnival in Grand Cayman so I think they hyped it up a little more than usual. A lot of people dress up in costumes and paraded the streets. I don’t think I will participate in this event ever because the outfits are sooooo skimpy. I will just watch like we did this year.

We just got back from Cayman Brac. We had a public holiday on Monday so we flew to another Cayman island with two other couples. It was beautiful. We stayed at a dive resort. The food was great, the diving was amazing, and it was absolutely relaxing! We did a dive at a sunken Russian ship on Saturday. It was really neat. We were able to swim inside parts of it. SCARY! But other than 4 dives, we just sat by the pool and had a few rum punches (sorry to rub it in, mom). It will probably be a week or so before I get any photos up because we have to get them from our friends.

Travis will be going back to Wisconsin on June 6th to pick Trent up. Then the three of us will come for a visit in the beginning of July. Travis and I will spend half of the trip in Janesville and half of the trip in Ft. Pierre! We are excited to be able to make it back for the Stoeser family reunion. Trent will spend time with his Mom, Step Dad, and brother. We will all return on July 7th and Trent will stay until the 3rd week in August.

When we return in July, Trent will start summer camp. We signed him up to go to a martial arts camp. They also go on field trips all over the island. I think he’s going to love it! June is still in limbo. I may be able to be with him, we may have a friend coming from the States to watch him. We should know in a week or so.

It looks like I might have a full time job lined up. I am waiting to get a contract to see if it is enough $$$$. I hope so because my work permit is up in 2 weeks and I don’t want to temp for another 6 months!!! My temp agency put my resume in for another position too, but I don’t think it is very good money. So cross you fingers for me!! At least there is finally a light at the end of this boredom tunnel!

Hope all is well with everyone. I promise not to wait another month before I write again! Don't forget to check back in a week or so for new photos!
