Updates!

These last couple of days have been awesome!

On Thursday we went to a Botanical Garden! The flowers here are amazing! There was bamboo, cattail trees, and trees with vines we could swing from. Here are a couple pictures from that day.

On Saturday we went to St. Katherine to a current Peace Corps Volunteers site! It was awesome! They showed us how they do tissue cultures, pineapple tree planting, and some Ag in the Classroom!

Planting Pineapple Trees!

Agriculture in the Classroom- This is where the students learn all about Ag- currently they are planting tomatoes, yams, lettuce, kallalu, mangos, and the list goes on. Will and I though this was good that kids were getting some hands on experience in raising some of the crops they produce.

Today we went to the BEACH!!! It was GREAT! The water was warm, the lobster was tasty, and the sun was hot!

mmmmm Fresh Lobster

And finally to everyone We LOVE! Sent especially for you from Jamaica!

Will is in his natural habitat hanging from the trees :) So, glad you are finally getting some time to enjoy being graduated while still working, continuing your education, serving others and living everyday as an adventure. I am happy for you guys and we WILL be coming to visit! Love you both lots! Jen

Love to both of you !!! We've been so worried about the two of you. It's hard to think of you both being so far away.... but we're so proud of what you're doing!

We stopped by & saw your Dad & Emily, & Gma Sue... heard you got to go to the beach and get some Lobster... (just a bit tired of chicken parts!!!)

Be sure to get us your address - so we can send you "care" packages! I'll be sending $'s to you via Gma Sue. She said she'd deposit into your account in Nampa. That way you can get whatever you need.

LOVE YOU LOTS & LOTS!

Aunt Lori & Uncle Mike!... oh & Joe, Heather & baby Roland sends kisses!!
