Gab Gab Beach
Sylvin's from the Virgin Islands and I'm from Indiana. We met in St. Croix in 2000 when I was on contract there as a nurse. It all started there on a beautiful sandy beach....then lots of moves and an eventful adoption of our twin girls..Esyanne and Evelisse in 2006. We feel our greatest milestone yet!
We've come to a semi cirlce,.....hence the sandy beaches....This site is all about our adventures in Guam and archives of our first year in Michigan together. Me, Syani, Eve and Sylvin too! We're so very very blessed!
Please feel free to leave a comment at the end of a post. I enjoy the feedback and it lets me know you've been here. Or if you prefer email, send me some at guam.usvigirl@gmail.com

3 year old pictures at Asan Beach Memorial






We're all doing well, healthy...which is saying quite a bit considering I'm living on a germ infested island. There's NO hand sanitizer on the whole island!...so I'm making my own and making my own sanitizing wipes as well. It's worked out alright for us for now. I'm so ready to move off the rock and get back to civilization as I know it. Even if that means snow, as much as I'm not looking forward to that! I'm ready to see those I love and am missing pretty bad.
Sylvin finally made it to Hawaii. They're still running more and more tests. I sure hope he finds out what's going on and it's not serious. All the obvious non scarry stuff has been ruled out at this point....so, well, cross that bridge when we get there, if we have to.
We just barely missed a typhoon hitting us. Typhoon Choi-Wan at the last minute made a turn north of Saipan and all we got was the usual torrential rains with a slight increase in wind. Didn't warrant me putting all the patio furniture away and tying everything down, but I am married to a boy scout so I guess it's rubbing off.
The girls are doing well. They're finally enjoying the water when we go to the beach and they get sand everywhere. We usually have to leave cause someone has gotten sand in their eye for like the third time. Then they want to throw a fit right there on the beach....in front of like a hundred people! So embarrassing, that's their job right?!
Eve lately has been asking "What's that?"....I've caught myself shaking my head and I know as cute as it is right now, only 2 or 3 days into asking, that question is gonna get old quick!...and Sy hasn't even caught on yet.
They insist on brushing their own teeth, and I don't know if I reported this or not, so sorry for the repeat message, but THEY'RE FINALLY POTTY TRAINED! Whew! Believe it or not, M&M's aided in that huge milestone! 1 for pee pee, 2 for coo coo and 3 for a dry pull up after they wake up from a nap. I don't expect them to wake up dry from sleeping all night for a while, but we'll get there. As I've said before....I doubt I'll be sending them off to college in a pull up.
Love to you all. Thanks for checking in on us.
