November 2014

Life in the fast LANE...or more apropos

 Life with the fast Lane.

November takes on 4 very different adventures:

1) We begin by finishing up our road trip to NC.

2) A trip to Cancún, we stayed in the area of Playa del Carmen.
It was considered a Vacationar - a blend of vacation and seminar.  
We enjoyed both phases but the photos only show the vacation portion.

3) Homemaking and seminary - ongoing.   





In seminary we raised a tent to illustrate the need to: 

                              ~ strengthen our stake

                              ~ expand the church

                              ~ seek safety or find refuge from the storms within our stake

That evening Lane & I watched "Malificient" from inside and had a sleepover.

We finish up our month of "Feasting on the Scriptures" with an 
oversized breakfast coupled with a birthday celebration for Brian.

4) Thanksgiving holiday in the Dominican Republic, Santo Domingo. 


We accepted the C's invitation to visit them while 
they are serving over a mission there.

Highlights included -- time spent visiting, decorating 
the tree with J, dining out and attending church services.


We also ventured out for a few day trips while 
the C's focused on their mission duties.

And a visit to this beautiful temple next door 
to their apartment in the capital city.

Ciao!

No turkey this year.  The C's served up some chicken 

and dressing before leaving for an appointment.  

We wandered around looking for a Thanksgiving 

buffet at the Marriott or the Hilton.  No luck.  

Wendy's french fries and frosty were the best 

we could do in the Caribbean.

I love life with the FAST Lane!
