CHRISTMAS AND A LITTLE VACATION
I hope you all had a very wonderful Christmas with your family and friends. We had a great time this year--Christmas Eve the boys and I made a birthday cake for Jesus and then some Gingerbread cookies--they had so much fun and it was worth all the mess!! On Christmas we opened presents and of course the kids played with all their new toys ( I immediately began to regret the tabletop pinball machine) and then later in the afternoon we went to our friend's house--they had an inflatable water slide for the kids--so the adults relaxed while the kids went crazy on the slide!! It was a nice, warm and relaxing day!
Ken had this last week off so, thanks to our very kind family, we were able to go to an absolutely beautiful resort here in Guam. It has a couple pools and waterslides and a kids water park---they also have mini-golf, kayaking, sailing, windsurfing---all sorts of things to do--all free if you are a guest! It was like a nice little vacation for all of us. The boys had so much fun and are already begging to go back! I've posted a ton of pictures of everything---Enjoy...

What are you feeding that baby??? Steak?? He is sooo cute. How much does he weigh now? He is way bigger than my Adeline!! Must be rough to have that kind of weather at Christmas time, huh?? I have another friend who does the birthday cake for Jesus. I think I might do that with Adeline when she gets a little older. Happy New Year.

What a great Christmas you guys had. Sounds like the resort was the perfect gift. I have been looking for a cool place to go locally here so we can take a mini vacation but I'm having a really hard time finding anything kid friendly....
I just got your message!!! I am so happy that you got the package!!! Hurray!!! I was crying when I wrote the card! Hmmm...been doing lot of crying lately! That is so funny that Wes thought Chase had on his shirt...did they fit ok? Big? Small? Can't wait to see a picture of them in them! Enjoy your coffee!!! I am sitting here drinking some of ours! Yummy!!!
Oh, when I showed Jason the pictures of Jack...when we came to the one of his shirt open he actually let out a laugh! So funny! He couldn't believe the chub...we decided on a size A atleast...sorry...we are bad!
He is so cute!!! Jason thought so too...and for him to think a baby is cute that is a VERY CUTE BABY!!! I want to see him so badly! Chaser and Wes too!!!
I have to get there...hmmm...I think I need to make it a mission trip! Then I can get support!
Ok...I better get myself to bed so I can try and dig our house out of this mess tomorrow! ugh!
Love and miss you tons!

Wow! Two jars a meal, huh? Adeline barely ate one full jar per meal at 9 months of age. Her doctor said I needed to be feeding her two at that time, but she would throw up if I gave her more than she wanted. Melinda will be 17 this month. She is a junior in High School now. I will tell them you said Hello! Have a great one!
Very thing keeps deleting out of this box? I have wrewritten this thing now for 3 times...Ah! I think it is getting shorter each time! I just tool sleeping pills and am having a hard time seeing what I typed...I miss you! I will try tomorrow when I can type again...Oh, wow! I can't even think of what I was going to tell you! Something from off of your comment to me...
Ok, I am getting off...
Love and Miss you!
