It's beginning to look a lot like...Christmas?

Merry almost-Christmas from Guam!

We have been attending Christmas parties & concerts & such -- still in 80-degree weather. 

The clinic's Christmas party on the lawn was complete with inflatable bounce houses, water balloon tosses, and snow cones.  Very fun, but a little odd to hear Amy Grant singing "Christmas can't be very far away" in that setting!

This afternoon we went to a Guam symphony concert, at the park near the beach.  A picnic-on-the-lawn event is a great way to listen to the symphony with little kids!  They were quite good.  We really enjoyed making new friends, too.  One of the highlights was Santa's appearance -- on a blue sleigh pulled by Guam's signature carabao!
