What a month! It isn’t even quite over yet. March continues to march to the beat of its own drum, urging us all to do the same. So many surprises, travel, simple adventures in nature, risks and rewards, hard work, reflection, captures of beauty, letting go, spring break at the pool, the beach & the …
January has been full of fun, all alongside kicking off the year and getting in gear business-wise. Including, though not limited to: Hiking, goats (Wendy, specifically), kids, dogs, surfing, surfboard making, happy hour, networking, events, reading, retreat, art, MoSa’s Joint, and more surfing. I will let the photos do the storytelling in this case!
November has been quite a month!!! Here are the adventures in a photo-recap, including Guam scenery at the beach, on a jungle/cave hike, the moon, my dog, the kids, surfing adventures, art adventures, women in business conference, food gatherings with friends, and miscellaneous selfies and fun:
Had some summer adventures already, cruising between work stuff, chilling with my boys, relaxing with friends, indulging in life, and finding creative inspiration everywhere. Loving life, appreciating the little things.
You can create art in just about any space if you get a little creative. When I got back into painting in 2007, it was not an ideal situation for creating art, or so I thought. My boys were 2-years old and 8-months old, and I was overwhelmed with life. We lived in a small studio space …
Every 1st Saturday of the month, I hold Creative Sessions (a painting workshop) at Guma’ Tasa, a coffeehouse in Mangilao here on Guam. The sessions are designed to be a fun, supportive environment to experiment with acrylic painting. It is not a fine art how-to kind of class, more of a free expression style class. …
It has been quite the wet July, complete with a couple storm scares, birthdays, surfing, Liberation Day parade, nights out after the storm, and other shenanigans. Some random imagery from our rainy season adventures here on Guam…
Every summer the Marianas Yacht Club holds a 1-week sailing class for kids on Guam. They learn basic water and sailing skills, jammed into 5 days of fun. My 8 year old son took advantage of the first year they are offering a scholarship to a couple kids based on an essay contest on why …
Awesome fun down at Talofofo Bay, as always. Here are some photos from the day:

Summer surfing on Guam…definitely not peak season, but great for kids! I still enjoy surfing every once in awhile, but I am also happy to chill on the beach and watch others enjoy the water. I’ve been having fun trying to get some good footage of my son, my little surf grom. He’s had fun …
The other day my older son was out surfing with his dad and friends. My little one came with me to my monthly radio show and the day evolved into date for the two of us. It was nice to spend some fun time with him, I want to do the same with his brother …

What a glorious full moon we had on April 25th! Here on Guam, I celebrated and enjoyed the 3 days of full moon by going with Garden Day friends on a hike through the red dirt hills of Manenggon, then a full moon 8th birthday for my niece. I didn’t take many pictures during the …
So I am admittedly one of those artist moms who is squeamish about her own kids’ messes. It is rare that my kids get to indulge in messy fun kid stuff, and when it happens, it’s outside. With a tarp. And a hose. And towels, cleaning spray, a mop, okay okay just kidding, I’m not …
Another awesome Easter egg hunt, bbq and family/friends FUN. Tons of super yummy food, colorful eggs, outfits, flowers, and kids. This seems to be the one gathering of the year that we get a different variety of friends and family who make it out to Talofofo for this holiday. The kids played outside in the …
