Luckily, Santa Claus knew where Grenada was and decided to come to our house for Christmas! Gabe was pretty excited! It was fun just being together in our little apartment, in Grenada, not really having any big plans and places to go. Our most important event of the day was building a sandcastle and relaxing on the beach. It was a perfect day and one that we will always remember.

Christmas in Grenada!

I think this Santa had a broken arm.
You can't see it in this picture, but my favorite part was the roof and the ground the figures are standing in,...they are all covered in white, painted, palm tree leaves.
This picture didn't do it justice.
We went out the other night to go look at the lights in Grenada. The first picture is a little deceiving, not because it isn't that beautiful to look at, because it is, but because that & one other place are the only places lit up in Grenada for Christmas. And, the best part about it, is that they can only turn their lights on on certain nights, so they don't blackout the whole town nearby. Ahhh, Grenada. Luckily, we caught a night when they were on, so we went walking about and enjoyed the incredible exhibit!
We also decided Christmas wasn't exactly Christmas, without some good ol' stockings. So we decided to get crafty and make our own out of construction paper! It was so much fun and I have to say, my husband has some mad stockin skills. Look at that beautiful christmas tree! Sorry you can't see them better. Mine says "I love Santa" and Ren's says "Loot Sock" & "No oranges."(Ren & I were laughing a little at Gabe's cute little blob marks. Maybe we are the meanest parents in the world, but we thought they looked like bird poo markings,...so Ren added one to his stocking. I know it looks like an egg, but it is supposed to be a bird poo marking. Ha!)

Well, I am sorry I have been a bad "blogger" lately. Life has actually been pretty busy, which is crazy to say while living on Grenada, but it has. Things don't usually get busy, but the holiday's are upon us so maybe that's why. First, we had a wonderful Thanksgiving with all of our good friends! There was so much good food, as you can see in the picture above! It was really fun & delicious! Then, the day after mind you, we put up our tree and decorated!! It was so much fun! The Weir's and the Johnson's came over to help and did a beautiful job helping decorate the tree! I really love having a tree in my house, and I have missed my little white lights. I used to have some up all year round in my kitchen, before we moved to Grenada. It always made me happy when I could turn off all the lights, except for those little white ones. Good times are here again! WAHOO!! We hope you all are having a wonderful Christmas holiday and that you are trying to do at least one nice thing, to someone, every day.
