Happy New Year 2011!

Happy New Year from Joyce and I. We pray that you have a blessed 2011. We are looking forward to what God has in store for us in the coming year.

We did manage to stay awake until midnight to greet the New Year even though we had stayed up most of the night before and dropped off Matt, Kristin and Milo at the airport at 5 AM. We had some fun with Mike and family shooting off some small fireworks and watching the kids play with sparklers. After midnight we were treated to our neighborhood fireworks show which included professional-type fireworks that exploded 50-100 yards in the air and lit up the whole sky, explosions that set off car alarms and shook our solid concrete house, car horns, bells, revving engines and, of course the standard on Guam, automatic weapons firing. We stood on the porch for about 15 minutes, under the carport, watching, hearing and feeling the show before we headed to bed. Today is another beautiful sunny day on our tropical island home and we look forward to many more sunny days in 2011. Why don't you come and pay us a visit?
