3 years and four moves later....San Pedro de Marcoris our new home!

So on June 28th we celebrated our 3 year anniversary since we left it all behind and followed Christ right to the Dominican Republic.  I sit now, in San Pedro de Marcoris, our new city, our 4th home.  I have started nesting...finally.  I feel at home in this new home, although this is not my final home.  The other day I was putting the final touches on our new home (which I love by the way), I was printing out pictures to fill, I am embarrassed to say like 6 frames, empty frames...and I am a photographer.  What a disgrace!  Well they have pictures now and I got thinking that it has been a LONG time since I have picked up my camera, been creative, had fun....so I grabbed the kids and headed out to our favorite Mexican restaurant.  On the way I planned to snap some pics of our new city to update everyone on our new adventure.  Then it started raining.  I was frustrated at first, then thought it will probably stop soon so no need to get too upset.

This is what it looked like as we got in the car

Getting our Mexican fix at our favorite restaurant Paco Taco

As we walked down to the malecon (area near the seashore with restaurants and such) the sky didn't look so good, but we never got rained on

Bet you this cool looking truck has some stories to tell...

There are many people sitting along the water on the walls, walking, and running.  San Pedro is a town of Dominicans, no tourists here, just Dominicans rich and poor, and some American missionaries we are getting to know.

Pretty cool there is so much going on here.

My crazy kids found lots of places to explore

They are getting so big! 9 and almost 7 wow!


I suggested they walk over there and hold hands.  Wyman didn't want to then it was so cute, she just grabbed his hand.  Love them!



This is her, help there is a wave coming face!

I feed her, I promise!


I love this one

Heart rock {love}

Cool snails

Storms a comin'

Love the power of the sea

Cool lighthouse we will need to explore later

We did not try the sketchy fair that was in town, but love the skyline with the Ferris wheel

Then God painted a pretty sky for us!

These piggies have had many adventures over the past 3 years, and hope to make many more here in our new city and wherever the Lord takes us!

Daddy was at Chapel for the Dominican Red Sox tonight...we missed him!

In His Grip,
