Christmas in Guam

 

Christmas Lights

It's no James Island Holiday Festival of Lights but it'll do for our tiny island and simple life here on Guam. 

Coffee with a View

 

After I drop the kids at school in the morning, I like stopping at this spot to finish my iced coffee.

From Our Driveway

 

Lola, she was a showgirl! 

Paradise

 

Sometimes all the litter, the overwhelming stray animal problem and the lack of convenience on this tiny island gets me down but this view though! ❤️

Man O' War

 

Rya got stung by a man o' war (floating terror) at the beach today and none of us could produce pee to help kill the venomous sting. Poor kid had to suck it up until we got home and remedied with a baking soda paste. 

Giant Gingerbread

Kicked off our Christmas advent activities with a visit to a life-sized gingerbread house made of 400 sheets of gingerbread and 800 pounds of icing in the Hyatt lobby.  The kids were completely unimpressed since they weren't allowed to touch or taste.
