Well after 24 hours of travel time we made it to Guam on Tuesday night at 8:30. Don't forget now that we are 14 hours ahead of the states, which is very hard to get used to. My poor boys are having such a difficult time. I am blogging right now and it is 4:00 in the morning and both of my boys are wide awake, I mean extremely awake!! Lee is bossing me around and Easton is yelling and rolling aroud. I managed to get about 3 hours of sleep. We do take a pretty good 2 hour nap in the afternoon which keeps me going. Okay, about the island, it is absolutely beautiful!!! There are exotic trees with flowers on them everywhere. Yes, the weather is hot but managable. I got used to Virginia so I think I can get used to this. This next part is just for you Jenn, no there are no mosquito nets in the beds and I haven't seen a single snake, we have seen little lizards running around everywhere but they are afraid of us. they run around in little families of three or four. We got a house to live in on base and I am very excited about it. I have been living out of a suitcase for two months now. We move in on Tuesday and all of our household goods are here and waiting to come to our house so I can put everything in it's perfect little spot. I love to decorate, for those of you who know me you know that too, and I will reaarange everything until I think it looks perfect. Our house has all tile floor, and let me tell you we have 2 yes I said 2 bathrooms!!! One is in the master bedroom and I am super excited about it. I have lived with only one bathroom for the last three years and it was not fun. The water out here is crystal clear blue and the sunset is even more gorgeous than I ever thought it could be. I think we are going to love it here. The hotel we are staying at now has a water park!! Yep, even a little water park for Lee to play at where I can just sit with Easton and watch him play. Another thing I am really stoked about is that someone from the exact little town I grew up in lives here!! We are going out to eat with him this weekend and he is going to show us around some more. For all of you wondering how to get ahold of us, we are going to get a landline tomorrow for the house that we can call the states for a flat rate. I will have a cell phone but will only be for local calls. You can always email me too. I want to keep in touch with all of you. I will post pictures as soon as I can. I have gotten some really good ones. You should see the view outside our hotel window, it is amazing and has a balcony. Lee was sitting on the balcony yesterday morning saying hi to everyone walking by. Of course he will make friends quickly, he always does. This is crazy that I am sitting here blogging in the middle of the night and all of my friends and family are going about their day on a Thursday, which I am working on it being Friday right now. Well, that is all for now, I miss everyone. If you really need to talk to me you can call my cell that I have always had it just cost me a lot more.
