Masterchef watch out!

We had LOTS of carrots in the fridge this week. so Whitney decided to make a carrot cake.. her first homemade cake without any supervision! It was delicious!

Singing in the rain

Singing in the rain!
It hadn't rained for a couple of months when we had a sudden thunder storm during this past week. We love thunder storms in the tropics. Whitney especially!

Perks of the job!

Whitney really really loves that her dad works for Cadburys!

Making Caramel Popcorn

CeNedra & Linda spent 3 days with us during the school holidays. We had lots of fun and enjoyed spending time with them. They are growing up fast, and becoming beautiful young women. Making Caramel Popcorn was sticky, fun and YUMMY!
fun times!

finger lickin' good!

First church outing

That night Whitney went to her first church dance...which was also the first place where she knew people. She's a natural poser!!

It's a new day for Whitney... and we joined her!

September 25th 2009, the day the scarves & hats came off for the last time! Whitney decided she's ready to be liberated, and just be who she is! As a sign of support Tara shaved her head and I cut off my long hair (work wouldn't allow me to shave). We are so proud of Whitney. She's an amazing young woman, with a complete understanding of true beauty... she inspires so many.
