The Birthday Card

So here's what we sent out to the lucky grandparents, aunts and uncles...I'd thought I would share it with the rest of you all.

I just can't stand it

The green monster! Argggh!

My girls are TOOOOOO adorable!!

Just look at them!

Analia imitating Maya's stinkbug walk.

This is the first time Maya has stood up on her own and I just happened to have my camera on and aiming at her!  Awesome. 

Below is Analia being green after finger painting--PEACE.

Stop-Go game for FHE.

Isn't it so true--my girls are just too cute. 

Visiting Guam

Analia is riding a water buffalo named Bessie...the animal is 30 years old and is still young.  Wild.  A local Chommorro man, named Big John told us all about her.

Drinking coconut milk straight from the freshly-machete-cut coconut.

At a local village called Gef Pago--they have recreated some old houses and gave us coconut candy...it's good.

At Inarajan--the coastline is breathtaking.  d

Hiking up from Haputo Beach.  

This past week my friend, college teammate and classmate, Jen, came over from Shanghai to visit.  It happened to be perfect timing because Mike was TDY this week and her husband, Taylor, was on a business trip too.  It was a beautiful girls week.  We toured the island all week and I remembered just how much fun it is to be with girls and what an amazing place I live.  It is seriously paradise.  Here are some pictures from the week.
