GoOd bYe JaNUaRy!

WELCOME FEBRUARY!!!! February is a great month for a few reasons 1. it's my mom's birthday 2. it's international friendship month 3. superbowl and 4. it's valentines day! February should be a pretty easy month just like January was. Not much happened since I last posted, which was the Christmas post, mid-January haha....work is going good for Darin, we celebrated out 7, YES 7 year dativersary, meet the most amazing surfer ever KELLY SLATER!! I've kept up with my gym routine every morning (way longer than I thought i'd last), and also going up to the RSPCA twice a week to help out.  

I've actually had 2 accomplishments, not big ones but ones i'm proud of happen in the last 2 weeks. I decided to ask for permission from the board at the RSPCA to create a facebook page and help run it. The lady who runs the RSPCA isn't a fan of social media and didn't do it in the past because there's a lot of negative people out there who think the RSPCA give an animal a deadline and when it's up they kill them. That's simply NOT a fact and I wanted to show people in Barbados what they do there is just as amazing as all the other shelters/humane societies here, if not better than those. I was allowed to create it and I did my best to make it look good, sound positive and show people the RSPCA really does do all they can to help all the animals who end up in their hands. So far we've had a fantastic response from people in the community with so many positive stories from rescues and people offering to volunteer, it's great!! I got some good compliments on my creative art designs for the page also. It makes me proud that I got to start something that can only get better for them. My other accomplishment is that Darin and I FINALLY got our passports stamped with our permits, so now we're officially official here!!

Other than that, life continues to be amazing here and we absolutely love it!! Oh and my sister Laura and friend Jenny are visiting for a week in April!!! Can't wait to finally show someone our awesome new home, Barbados :)
