Our family life in the tropics. Lots of music, art, gardening, cooking, traveling, ponderings, and joy. Creating memories, traditions
and hopefully some humor. Trying to give back as well.

merry, merry

Ho, ho ho!
Love and joy and happiness to you all.

Christmas came so suddenly this year.  For us this time of year is about slowing down and enjoying each other.  This morning we talked to the kids about the meaning of this season, how it is about joy and love and celebrating a great being who graced the world with teachings about our true nature, our true divine nature.  And he showed us how to behave, with compassion and non-judgement towards all people. They listened with no interruptions! Sky got a pretty bracelet, Annabel got a new bass and Shawn got an electric guitar. Who knew Santa was so rock 'n roll?

We cleaned the house to get ready for Sky's two friends who are coming from California.  Two newly turned eighteen-year-old young ladies.  It shall be fun!

Now Gary is playing piano, the kids are making banana bread from our most recent harvest, and soon we shall prepare our Christmas feast.

Simple family time.

Best ever.
