Wow has it been busy! After Vera and Basil left, we needed to get groceries. In Belize, you can’t just get everything at the local Wal-Mart. Nope. We had to go to several stores to get what we wanted. Below is a video of us going shopping in Belize City. If you look closely at…

Hi all, just a quick post to let you know that we are doing well we just have limited internet access. We just spent some time with folks from Calvary Baptist Church of Winston Salem. They were a great group. We even got to hang out with them at Caye Caulker for a day. What…

Here is our little baby at 13 weeks. We are very proud parents! Have a great day everyone!…
