November 21st. Taylor's Year 2 class had a field trip to Guy Harvey's Studio today. They learned about Guy's different styles of art, and he entertained them with stories of his fishing expeditions. It was a great morning for both the kids and parents.

My First 10K

November 18th. I ran my first 10K race. The annual Pirates Week "To Hell and Back" started at 7am at the Governor's Beach. The route took us up Seven Mile Beach Road to Hell Road in West Bay with the Devil's Hangout being the turning point (hence the name). The race ended at the Courtyard Marriott where a feast awaited the runners. Melissa Boxall was my running partner, and thanks to her level of fitness and ease with running, she kept me occupied with stories for the entire run. We finished in 1hour 4 minutes. Taylor, Ryan and David came out to cheer us on.

National Gallery Casablanca 1940's Black & White Ball

November 3rd. The National Gallery of the Cayman Islands hosted their annual ball with a twist this year. The Gala was held in the Island Air hangar at the airport! The Casablanca theme was evident from the moment you entered, with a Rick's Cafe sign posted above the entrance, to parachutes on the ceiling and elegant decor. Every corner of the venue had a Moroccan flair, and a blackjack table was a creative touch for fundraising, with prizes given out at the cost of $25 per hand. Once the guests were seated for dinner, a belly dancer wowed the crowd of 300. After an auction of paintings from local artists, and a raffle prize donated by British Airways for a trip for 2 to Morocco (no, we did not win) the evening was capped off with a filled dancefloor. Even when the music ended, guests were in no hurry to leave this fabulous affair. We look forward to seeing what they could possibly do to top this event next year ..... Stay tuned!

Halloween

October 31st. The High School Musical Cheerleader, the Cammo Ninja and a Dirty Old Man get ready for Halloween.

David turns 39.

October 19th. We celebrated David's birthday with a South Beach Themed party . 50 close friends and family came over for the celebration. With Mise En Place and Barnes Bartending taking care of the guests with food and drink, the evening was a great success.

Taylor gets rid of her trainer wheels
