David & Jacob's 12th Birthday Party!
The boys are officially 12!
My friends Marilee & Michelle came over and helped decorate for a Halloween theme party for the boys - a sister from the ward donated a lot of super fun decorations. We served: witches hats (bugles on ritz crackers held on by cheeze whiz), mini corn dogs, bagel bites, eyeball witches' brew (gummy eyeballs floating in lemonade in a cauldron), bags of popcorn (kettle or regular), and caramel apples (the kids chose what other toppings the wanted - heath bar, milk chocolate, nuts, or sprinkles). We watched the old Disney thriller, "Watcher in the Woods" - which scared the bigebeeze out of us all and then had to watch, "Hood Winked" - to help cut down on the night mares (we only have a queen size bed :). The girls then went home and we were left with a house full of rowdy boys that stayed up way too late. In the morning we had breakfast and left for the church house for a service project. A fun time was had by all!

More Bali Pictures
I received a few more pics of Bali.....I am still expecting a few more of the dives I went on - I will update when I can.
The picture of me and my friend riding the elephant with our hands above our heads is dedicated to my Grandma Jackie, who always dreamed of riding an elephant - this ones for you Grandma!

Our First Dive
Our family went on our first scuba dive together last Saturday. We were at Gab Gab beach. We went on two dives and enjoyed a BBQ in between. We ended the day with a date night with our friends Michelle and James at a new restaurant - California Pizza Kitchen. It was a fabulous day!

Two of my closest friends here in Guam and I were able to go and visit Bali for a little over a week. It was a trip never to be forgotten. The sites, sounds, smells, and people we came in contact with were amazing! We saw and experienced so much in a relatively short period of time. We went white water rafting, attended a cooking school, shopped, visited a monkey forest, visited several beautiful temples, mountain biked down a mountain winding through little villages, went to spas, attended traditional dances, rode an elephant, and bartered our way through the beautiful little country.
I was even able to go on three boat dives off the coast of a little island near Bali mainland.
All the while, our husbands back home took great care of our children. (Though I am sure my David helped take care of Jeff and Jacob as well :)
