We are home!
We love being back in Utah! it's funny because I feel like we have been through so much and changed so much while experiencing so much of the world and we come home and everthing is still the same. you ask people whats new and usually they say not much. I am glad that we have had so many cool experiences and that things are changing.

My view of change has changed. I like it! I like moving and meeting so many new people and going new places!

We are so blessed! being home has really made us realize how blessed we actually are. With families who love us and the church all around us, and temples!!! It's nice to be so close to the temple. It's sad to see people on the island with huge testimonies but not the means to visit the temple.

It didn't take long for us to get use to the comfort of home. We love being close to our families over the holidays. Although we are excited to move to the Bahamas!

LIFE IS GREAT FOR US!

Hey Yall!

Today was a very very fun day!  We slept in! that is a first for us in months! we got up when we wanted ate breakfast when we wanted. Later we met up with some friends and we rented a car to go on a road trip down the island. So we loaded up the car and we headed down the island, the drive is always nerve racking for me cause people are CRAZY! drivers here! I am not just saying this... you would not believe it unless you saw it! We drive on the left hand side of the road here, and there  are no speed limits or stop signs here.  The roads are so windy and twisty.

We went to a place called Titou Gorge earlier on this  blog there are some pictures of it. I have been before and I really wanted Brett to experience how cool it was!  needless to say he loved it!

We leave the island for good on tuesday Dec 23. We are so so excited to go home for christmas before our move to the Bahamas.  Brett did well on his final mini of the semester! It has been an awesome 5 months!  Learning and growing and loving has been a blessing in our lives.

Merry Christmas!

Bahama Bound BABY!

This is a map of Freeport Bahamas, our next home to be.

we are moving January 7th and are very excited!

We will be getting bikes while we are there, we are told it is very flat (unlike here)

and are excited to ride around town.

If you find the red circle that says Ross U. and you see the golf course under it, we will be living to the left of the golf course, in the canal-ish area! water all over! The beaches in the Bahamas are white sand beaches and the snorkeling and diving have a great reputation too!

This is our condo/ timeshare/aprtment builing! We are on the third floor and are paying the 3rd cheapest rent on the list of apartments! We have a pool, Tennis courts, blacony but most of all we have each other! :) ... cheesy? I don't care.

I called prior to comitting to this apartment and asked the landlord if we could make a deal. I told her I would only sign the lease if she comitted to painting a monochromatic apartment for us. She readily abliged! ha ha just teasing! but isn't it sweet! our whole place is white and black... I actually have seen four or five other Bahama apartments that are black and white so it must be a thing they do there? oh well!

Look we have a ice maker in our fridge! and a dishwasher next to it! We have a couch! and a huge table that can seat 6! a queen size bed! I know you American are thinking ok whoopee..... but for us not having a table, couch, toaster, and sleeping on a foam thing with shoved pillows under it we are pretty excited that we have this opportunity!

We hear the Branch there is a good size, we look forward to going to church there!

Brett is currently studying in the other room for his Anatomy test. oh wait he just walked in to get a good luck kiss and know he is out the door headed to his 3rd big test in two days! next week there are 7 more... He is doing great! we are going to trade some of his books back for next semesters books, that is gonna save some mula!

My school is over after I take 2 more finals soemtime between the 6-9 of December! Life is nice here, simple.
