Four years in Cayman

Governor's Beach on May 28
May is the month for significant dates in our family.  We just celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary.  May is also the month we met and is the month we moved to the Cayman Islands. May 31, 2007 saw us take the leap and move down here to start our work at the International College.  Four years later we are still here and now with a new addition to our family as well.  As we look back over the past four years there are a ton of memories that jump out.  Going through Hurricane Dean just three months into our move was a sharp introduction to the reality of hurricane season down here.  Dealing with the high cost of living while enjoying all the island has to offer has been quite an experience too.  Where else could we live and only have to drive 5 minutes to be on a beautiful beach.  The work at the college has been both difficult and rewarding and seeing the college doing well today is something we take great pride in as we played a big role in that.  And of course Baby 2010 and the birth of Arianna.  No matter what happens to us this will always be the place our daughter was born.
