HOORAY FOR YESTERDAY!!!

Yesterday was indeed a GREAT day. Aside from celebrating the ever important Utah Holiday known as Pioneer Day, Jerod found out that he was accepted to St. George's University Medical School in Grenada. This means a new way of living starting in January 2010! We are looking forward to the fun and challenging experiences we'll encounter during our 20 month stay on the island. I will be sure to update our blog more frequently while in Grenada!

Yesterday evening we took Emma to the Gateway Mall where she had a blast playing in the water with her cousin Maya. Emma will definitely love the beach. One of her favorite things to do is swim. Emma is now 15 months and is little miss independant. She absolutely loves playing with bouncy balls and has quite the collection. Her latest words include "golf ball" (she learned this from Daddy), and "bubble" (one thing she could not get enough of the day of her surgery-there were bubbles to blow in every waiting area).

My Grenadian Family! Hope all is well. Congrats to Jerod and his acceptance to St George's! I wanted to see if you guys had a web cam and have downloaded skype. Skype is a free internet video and voice chat program that allows you to make calls to anywhere in the world. If you do we'll have to coordinate a call and show you the view from our place! It's pretty beautiful here. Jerod should have my email somewhere, send us one when you have the skype thing figured out. A lot of LDS couple here use skype to communicate with each other and with their families back home. Hopefully, we'll talk to you soon.
chau!
