Dena with her Jaden, Such a good Mommy.

Yippee, we are getting a new Grand kid and it's a GIRL!!!! She is due on the 10th of April.
They gave her the name of Lindsey, we are so excited to be closer to Dena and be able to share more of this pregnancy with her, While she was pregnant with Jaden, I was the only one in the family to see her pregnant. I remember when I first saw her, I had tears in my eye's while I touch her belly. She then Graduated from Utah State in May 4, 2007 While walking across the stage she felt like she might be in labor. We took her to the hospital and they monitored her, but it ended up being a false alarm.
She ended up having Jaden on the 9th of June, 2007. He is the happiest little boy, I mean having been stung by 3 wasps and only crying for 4 mins!!! That's amazing.
We have one more announcement to make, but I need to wait until the person lets other family members know first, I would hate to take the wonderful away from them.

Remembering Okinawa.....

We woke up to SNOW here in Tennessee, which made us all wish we still lived in Okinawa Japan, where the weather is nice,warm and shorts are the in thing.
The following photo's are just a few of the MANY we have. Hope some of you are able to enjoy, some for the first time.

This photo was taken right off the balcony, I tried to include the railing, to show the awesome view we had.

The seawall, we would walk from one end to the other, the "Graffiti" was usually a message for a loved one. The pink block on the right, is one that my kids made me for my birthday.

Low tide...A lot of the time, people who had fish aquariums inside would go out on low tide and catch different kind of sea life.

I found this Lion Fish at Seragaki, I was about 120 ft. down. This was the biggest one I have ever seen. I was able to get with in 15 ft. of it, any closer and I would have soiled my wetsuit. Yes, they're (Deadly) poisonous.

I won a NICE regulator at the annual Underwater Easter Egg Hunt, so Dale set it up as a second air, that way we could take the kids down 10-15 ft.

Molli was the only one brave enough on this trip, Jessica had no desire, and Bobby would rather spear fish.

Surfacing on at the Sunabe Seawall. We could just walk outside, find the nearest entrance and GO FOR IT!!

Completing a boat dive at the Karamas.

The next three are more photo's taken off the Balcony, How jealous are you know?...
