Hello friends and family. Here are the long awaited pictures we have been promising for weeks. Guam is awesome, beautiful, and we are feeling extremely blessed. As you will see in the pictures the baby is growing and so is Natalie's belly. The pregnancy is going great and healthy. We hope you enjoy the pictures!! We love and miss you all! Love, Natalie (PS- Love from Cliff, too).

Cliff and Charuto at Spike 22 gym in Tumon, Guam. Charuto is BJ Penn's Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) instructor. Cliff had a chance to train with him and learn from him for a week and a half while Charuto was visiting from Hawaii. He will be back in March. He was a really great guy and good teacher.

These cave pictures are caves that the Japanese hid in and fought from when the Marines took Guam back in WWII. These caves are located on the "Big Navy" base in the southern part of Guam.
This is foliage on the Navy base.
Gab Gab beach at Navy Base. Crystal clear water and lots of fish.
View from the main road in front of our house.
River 5 minutes from our house that Nat passes on the way to work everyday. It empties into the ocean (see photo below).
More photos to come. We have a really slow internet connection here-- so downloading these photos takes a long time. We hope you enjoyed the photos so far. Start saving your money so you can come out and visit-- you have a free place to stay.

Greetings to you from the Valley of the Sun! I love your pictures of Guam-brings back memories.
I hope you two like Guam-seems like you do.
I have just added this "blog" to my favorites so I will check it often.
If you get a chance to visit the Talofofo area, look for Yokoi's cave. Yokoi was a Japanese soldier who hid on the island long after WW2 was over.
