Elvis's Week

On Tuesday night the mosquitoes were out with a vengeance after a massive rainstorm! Elvis loves to dig and it doesn't help he rides low to the ground. They got him good!

 About 12 mg of children's benadryl over a couple of hours & he returned to somewhat normal.

It wasn't funny (but it was), because we felt for him. We knew he had to have been miserable!

Now we laugh hysterically!

(we tried being a little more sensitive the night of)

Then on Thursday night...

Another massive rainstorm hit & this puppy who "HATES" getting wet, didn't want to come in because he was digging and digging and digging!

OH! Now he hates the water, when he has to get a bath because he was literally dripping with mud.

See having dogs is like having children!

37 weeks

How did the time go by this quickly?

My 36 week appointment was wonderful. Everything was perfect & that's all I can ask for. 

As of now my due date is 2 weeks away (but I know that doesn't really mean anything). I have worries and excitement all rolled up into a ball. Simply, I'm thankful to Heavenly Father that this pregnancy has been an uncomplicated one, our daughter is healthy, we have supportive family & friends on Guam.  It's truly been all that we could ask for.

On Monday I have my next appointment. I'm excited to hear what the doctor says to see if  I've progressed anymore since my last visit. I hope Heavenly Father continues to watch over us as we near the big day.



Happy 4th of July

Naval Base Guam hosted a Freedom Festival to celebrate this Grand Holiday. The event was kicked off with a parachute jumper (courtesy of Aaron's command) as the National Anthem was sung.

This man with his water buffalo (or Carabao as they're called on Guam) and 2 dogs is kind of a celebrity here and he walked in the parade with the Carabao adorned in flowers.

Everyday he walks alongside Marine Corps. Dr (the main "highway" on Guam) while these 2 dogs are sitting on top. He's always a big hit!

Welcome to Navy Blvd!

A submarine replica one of the boats made & drove through the parade.

Here's us at the Festival. The weather was gloomy & rainy, but for us that's a nice change!
