GG and Grumpa Rhodes come to Trinidad, and other happenings

Wow. It's been a while since we updated the blog, but we've been busy! GG and Grumpa Rhodes came to visit Trinidad and Tobago, so we flew to our sister island for a Memorial Day weekend/Indian Arrival Day weekend of fun at the beach. This weekend we kept up the busy pace, with a good bye party for one colleague Friday night, a bachelorette party that Christy organized for another friend on Saturday night, Embassy Family Fun Day on Saturday, and a birthday party for one of Nicholas's friends from the park on Sunday.

We were lucky to have great weather, as we're now coming into the rainy season.

there was enough wind on Friday though to blow down the top of the fan-palm tree in our back yard

Embassy Family Fun Day!

Nicholas didn't want to choose between Daddy and Mommy's teams, so he went neutral
