Continuing on with Tradition...

Well for those who read about my accident last week would know I missed a Saturday of decorating trees at my family's homes. So this Saturday was a 2 for one visit. we had a lot to get through with, lots of liming, lots of food and lists of decorating. 
So here are a few pictures of the end result. 


My sister's tree went up first and we manage to do her gallons and a snowman family.


And finally we did my mom's tree... which she decided to decorate in RED!!

It really is great to spend time with the family and experience  the fun together. It makes the workload less and with all the laughter... things just gets done quicker.

My Version of Fall.

I have been seeing on other blogs beautiful pictures of the ever changing and eye stimulating Fall season. Honestly living in Trinidad limits your experiences of the changing seasons and seeing how spring turns to summer to fall and then winter. All I have is endless summer greenery. All I have is the constant warm weather and lush green rain forests.

So I have been living vicariously through other blog admiring the Fall pictures and sometimes questioning if it is really true. Then I had a beautiful sunny day yesterday and got to spend the day just lying on a beach and soaking in the sun. So I decided to give you all my version of Fall. And see what we get during the Fall Season.

Enjoy.


 I visited a beach house in Blanchisseuse Beach and it was attached to 3 different bays. It was fun just splashing in the waves, and fun exploring each bay in the warming sun.


This was a bird's eye view of the bay that had clear green water and little watery caves to hide under. My son really liked…
