Well, it has happened... even though, we have physically been here since Dec. it seems like only in the last few weeks have we all started calling Singapore HOME and not the States! It may seem like a small thing but it feels BIG to me. We are all really coming to LOVE this place. Sure we still miss our family, but I guess that is easier with Skype and MagicJack... oh, and the trip we are planning to see everyone in June just around the corner :-)
Truly, I can't wait to have visitors here. I am so excited to share our new home with family and friends!
We have been busy keeping up with the kids activities. Mainly, the girls. The boys are content to hang close to home and play video games ;-) Emma is gearing up for her part in Peter Pan. She is so excited to be playing Mrs. Darling. Delaney has started intense training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. She is training 5/6 times a week and loves it. I love watching her passion for it. Jax has been preparing for his school's exhibition and been a bit stressed over the size of the project. He is very glad it will be over next week. Ollie is loving school and has really come far in reading!!! Dax is loving the challenges that work is giving him. Both of us started working out with a trainer at our gym. He is kicking our butts!!! I've got some exciting news but am waiting on some final paperwork before I share :-)
Here are some pictures from the last month or so:

| We are quickly approaching 1 year plant based! Wow, if you had asked me last April if we would all be vegan I would have thought you were crazy! Now, we are the crazy ones and not looking back. We all feel so much healthier. Eating this way has been such a blessing for us. |

I just stumbled across your interesting blog. This happened when I clicked "Next Blog" on my own blog page.
I am a new fiction writer (although and old person - is 71 old?) and will be setting a future thriller novel in and around Singapore. Interesting that you are there. I've looked the place over on Google Earth. Your pictures are quite interesting. I hope the place is working out for you.
Another interesting thing I noticed is that you are Vegans. One year is it? My wife and I and two good friends took the plunge about four months ago. We exclude all dairy and oils, too. What a difference!!! We were cutting back on meat for awhile before starting "The Diet." I dropped about 30 pounds in no time at all. I still have tons of energy. Of course our clothes keep falling off, which is funny. We are finding many great recipes, too. My wife is experimenting with all sorts of stuff. We now have a been burger that is fantastic. We also got on the Almond milk wagon and love that, too. This is a whole new eating trend. It's hard not to tell people about it.
I cringe when I think about what "normal" people are eating and what it's doing to them.
I just started eating papaya, too. Who knew?
Cheers to you all!
