Happy New Year!! I am so sorry I haven't updated the blog in over a MONTH! A lot has been going on the past month or so, Brayden turned FOUR (I cannot believe it, my baby...)! We also had a visit from my mom and my brother Adam for Christmas, we had a great time. It was really nice to have them here on our first Christmas away from home. We had a big Christmas dinner with some friends who's husbands are deployed, and we went to the beach, parasailing, and just enjoyed having each other's company during the holidays. I am starting SCUBA classes tomorrow, it's very exciting, Guam is one of the best places on Earth for diving, and Brian is going to take a refresher course since he was already certified a long time ago. We are looking forward to Beth and Bob's visit later this month, Brayden is excited having all these visitors, he wants to show them "his island". He is doing well, still going to preschool, not getting in as much trouble as before but still having his moments. Oliver is screaming at me right now to get off the computer and play with meeee! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and have a even better 2009!!
December 13th was Brayden's 4th birthday. We had a small party at the base pool, and although his cake got smashed in the car, we couldn't get the candles to light because of the wind, and Brayden somehow smashed his EAR in the cooler (your guess is as good as mine, how)....he had a great time! Hard to believe it has been 4 years already. He is a smart boy, sweet and rambunctious. I guess this means we are keeping him.

Happy Halloween everyone! I hope everybody had a great time. Our neighbor tried to tell us how big of a deal Halloween was in our neighborhood, and we grossly underestimated......we ran out of candy in about 5 minutes. There was literally 2-3 thousand people in our neighborhood (apparently it is the place to trick or treat on the whole island). There were haunted houses all over the place, people making snow cones for the trick or treaters, giving out bottled water to keep them hydrated, giving out beers for the moms and dads, it was CRAZY. Brayden had a blast, Oliver did okay for the first hour or so, then I took him home. There were cars and people everywhere, I think he got a little overstimulated. The night before Halloween, we were just hanging outside when we heard music, and there was a random parade coming down our street, people with torches, etc. It was the mayor of Piti, campagining for re election, we got to meet him and he gave Brayden a big ol' bag of candy. He lives just down the street from us. Local politics are a huge deal here, because though Guam has delegates for the primaries, they don't get to vote in the general election. I can't believe it is election time in a few days, I feel like I am perpetually stuck in July. Anyhow, get out and vote (unless you are voting for McCain/Palin, did you know they changed the election date to the 5th?)!!! Be well!!
