It is Monday again, we are ready for it. We are having two more weeks of school before it is time for the holidays!

Since it is almost Christmas they set up a school store where kids are able to buy cheap presents. They have inform school what their budget is and for whom they want to buy presents. This way they make them learn how to handle money and spent it, this is for all grades. We are curious what Camy will pick for us.

This is a piece of art that all chapel buddies in the same family made. Camy’s family has 8 students in it and they made this, while at school.

Now it is time for a cup of coffee and some sun at McDonalds.

Camy’s latest vlog is online as well. She vlogs about the road we always take to school and what she sees on the way, it is about an one-hour drive (one way).

At school they started selling Christmas trees as well, $80.00 is what one tree will cost but you do support your charity.

Day 37 – August 29

It is Friday again, time for Chapel. We also participated in the worship this morning, which is attended by all students during their first period.
And like we told you before, parents are more than welcome too.

Day37-01

Also at school today were some Cranes. Real nice, tall birds, this is only about 6 feet from them. Normally a bird would have taken off but not these.

Day37-02 Day37-03

When school was over today and the weekend had started we took off for Miami right away. Too bad it rained, but you can not have it all. It is Labor Day weekend so there will be no school on monday and we decided to take advantage of that by taking a little holiday and go see Miami. South Beach, Miami Marlins and shopping is on the to do list.

Day37-04

But first, we will spend the night at the Holiday Inn Express Hotel.

Day37-05

Later that night we ran into the Duck family. How cute, mother and 7 babies in the middle of parking lot.

Day 30 – August 22

Today is Friday, the day we worship with all of St. Lukes students at the Chapel. They use large screens so everybody is able to read all the lyrics and sing along. Also do they use it for the speeches given and prayers, high-tec church and up to date.

Day30-01After church we made one more stop at Home Depot, just to have one more look at what kind of flooring we really want.
Is it that hard to make your choice 🙂

Outside near the exit there is a hot dog booth which smells real good and since it is almost lunch time we decide to order a hot dog each.

And when there is some time left …. it is time to relax.
You take a salad, a good book and find the right spot in the park for a couple of hours.

Day30-05

Surrounded by the white Ibis, a curious bird who is not afraid and comes by real close, see whether or not there is some food left.

Day30-06

Last night it rained cats and dogs with a lots of wind even taking parts of the cage out. Since we always leave the house early we only saw what happened when we came home again. With this happening we have got another project to take care of, getting the cage repaired. Now that one part has disappeared, leaving a big gap for all insects, bugs, lizard to “enter” the pool, we need to get this fixed because we are not looking for these kind of visitors.
