So what has been happening since our last update......
1. Apartment - we are actually staying in the same apartment this semester as last semester, which means for the first time in our marriage Kelsey and I will be living in the same space for more than 4 months!!!! Here are just a few quick shots of our apartment...
This is the view of the ocean from our front porch and kitchen!
This is the living room.....
the dinning room and HUGE kitchen (for Dominica anyways)
The bedroom.......
and our view from our bedroom....I literally wake up to the mountains each and every morning
..this apartment is such a blessing!
SO as you can see we love our apartment and are able to have our home fellowship KOINONIA in our apartment each Saturday.
2. School for Me - school for me is coming to an end. School's official last day is JUNE 30th! I will be glad to have more free time, but will miss the kids and the free A/C!!!! But I have decided to work the summer program 2 days a week to keep me busy and to help cover expenses over the last few months when I don't receive a paycheck :(
3. School for Kelsey - Kelsey is doing AWESOME in Med school...while he doesn't like to brag, he's among the top in his class of over 250 students for his semester and is involved in several student groups, he leads our home fellowship group and tutors Anatomy! Needless to say I am sooooooooooooooooooo proud of him this blog would make most people gag if I wrote on and on...so I won't but know that he's kicking butt and all of your prayers for us and for him during test times are not only appreciated but being answered.
In addition to this being Kels last semester on the island it is also the semester where he get's to be most like a "real doctor". Yep he gets to go to hospitals and clinics and interview REAL patients. Now while that might not seem like such a big deal it really is....up until now he has been interviewing "fake" patients who are given certain symptoms to report, history, etc. He is now getting to go and try to determine what next steps a "Real Person" would need to take...this is no longer a textbook case of such and such. His first hospital visit (for a full day and at our hospital in Roseau) will be on this coming Tuesday so keep him in your prayers!!!
4. The Break - This break we decided to stay local and head to another island so we jetted off to Barbados! In theory this sounds like a wonderful idea...we find a great deal on a hotel right on the beach and we head out with another couple and poof! We are whisked away to an island adventure in central america (technically I guess the southern islands are considered part of central america...who knew?)....
That's all for tonight....look for more updates on Barbados and our 2nd anniversary and Kelsey's 32nd birthday in the weeks to come...
Love ya all....and remember...if you can't love the ones your with...love them from a distance LOL!
