Cleaning the van...

We spent a few hours getting the van ready for our twent-two hour drive! The boys helped some...they absolutely loved washing the outside if it! Plus gettig water on eachother;)

Floral prints on Palmolive containers.

"They do this, so that creative people like you will buy their products." (Mom to me;)
It must be true, because I was completely enthralled with them

Some sunny shine!

Joseph loves the ocean!

We took an extremely long ride  from one point of the island to the other-on bikes. You know us!

William has the best ride;)

"Look what I found!"

(If bike rides, reptiles, and injuries interest you, check back in a few days!)

Updates: coming soon!!

We just came in from biking to Panera Bread...maybe more on the story of the long journey later!
But for now, all I will say is that we are having wonderful family time. Olivia, if you are reading this, we miss you very much!!!!! Love you, Sis,

Mom and I are headed to the "big city" for the day. Don't you love our view?

Some family happenings

For starters, we leave for vacation soon! Everyone is absolutely thrilled. Our little people (the boys), can't wait to go for bike rides, swims, etc. The countdown is to four more "sleeps."
At this house, we will have wifi, thus, I will keep you all posted on what we are up to:)
Time flies. In five weeks, Dad and I take off for Haiti. With great anticipation, I started  counting down the days at around eighty! Whew...
 Joseph can't wait to start playing the cello. Even though he knows that it will be difficult, he said that he will stick to it ( he does not exactly have a choice;) We are very proud of the young man that he is growing into.
Now for William. It seams as if music is rubbing off onto all of the Winters. He starts violin with the new school year. We know his future teacher quite well and are very excited to see him achieve great things!
God is SO good. We would be nowhere without him. Please pray for our safety, as we ate about to depart for our long journey ( around 22 hours?).

I can't get any photos to upload from
The iPhone. Any ideas?
