I miss home

So lately I have been missing some things from home(Srilanka)so bad. Seriously, I wish I could make a trip back Just to enjoy these things.
Green landscapes and beaches:


Peacocks and elephants:


Jewelery and clothes:



My favorite fruits in the whole world Mangusteen and Rambutan:


King coconut! The best thirst quencher ever!

Some real curry! Especially crab curry yum!


Someday I'll be back. Mmmmmm!! wonder when?

Ahhh!! our baby is growing up!

Today Grant went to nursery for the first time. This was like the first time in the past year and a half we actually could pay attention in church. Though I was kind of worried to send him to nursery, the moment we left him there he totally forgot that we even existed and went right to play with the other kids. In Sunday school Steven kept whispering in my ear "Isn't it nice to not have Grant run around the class for once".But I kind of missed him there.Wow! I can't believe that he is old enough to be in the nursery already. Before we know it he will be going to college.Can someone stop him from growing up so fast?(sniff,sniff)

Valentines day

Valentines day was great with lots of fun and food. We just kept it simple this year and I liked it a lot better. I started out with pancakes for breakfast with blue berry syrup. Then for lunch we had chicken roll ups and gravy. Those were delicious. This is a picture of it.


Then we had Grant's cousin Preston over and the two guys had a blast playing together. They were so precious.



Then later I baked our heart shaped cake we baked last year. Actually we made it our little valentines day tradition. But this year it didn't turn out that great.oh well!We were planning on making a nice dinner that night but by the time I got done making our cake it was too late to make dinner. So instead we went out and got Sushi. That was fun. Oh, I also stuck little petals on our bedroom walls. That was fun too.
