Island Life....

For all of you poor people stuck in the snow, I hope these pictures don't make you hate us too bad :o

While the kids were in their first week of school, Robby had the week off work for house hunting. So of course we decided to go exploring. We accidentally found this beach. As we approached the road to go on we passed a sign that said...
"WARNING.... people have drowned here!" I must admit I was a bit nervous. And of course the one day we had to explore with out the children it was a down pour ALL day. But we quickly learned that if you wait to do something when it stops raining you will never do anything. This is the road we ventured down looking for the beach...




So we finally found a place to park and headed out to the beach. It was gorgeous! Even in the down poor we had a great time. We spent the time looking for shells and found some really pretty ones. After about an hour we had to head back to get the kids. This is us dripping wet and having a blast...




There is a tradition here on Guam that on every Wednesday night the Chamorro village has a big Siesta at the Chamorro Village. We ventured out for the night. Unfortunately it was a school night and our little Gage was exhausted from being at school for a full day. The Chamorro's cooking is amazing and they are known for their different ways of cooking chicken. We LOVED it! Well, everyone but Gage...




























































One thing we have found that we are definately not in short of are lizards... Maddie has died and gone to heaven. We two different kinds on the island, Gekkos and Skinks. Apparently when they get scared their tails fall off, needless to say every lizard around our house is missing a tail. Maddie and her friends constantly catching them...





We have lots more to share with all of you. I will post what I can as soon as possible. Love you all!!
