Hafa Adai - Welcome!
Phil and I have been very fortunate to be given the opportunity to learn about a new culture and area of the world. We are so greatful for this gift and are looking forward to all the new adventures that lay ahead. I have started this blog to help document our experiences and explorations during out time on Guam. My goal is to make a weekly update to help us stay in touch with our family and friends and to share some of our thoughts and experiences that we encounter along the way.

We've Been BOOED!

Yes, We've Been BOOED!

Every year for as long as I can remember the tradition of being BOOED in Military Housing has been around. And this year was no different!

As the tradition goes someone drops off a goodie bag filled with Halloween treats. You  are suppose to hang the sign in your window or door clearly visible to the rest of the neighborhood so everyone knows that you have been BOOED. Next, according to the directions in the bag you are to make two more BOO BAGS and surprise a neighbor with your treats to spread the early cheer.

Over the years this tradition has changed a bit. As my kids can tell you when they were younger the HALLOWEEN PHANTOM GHOST would drop off the goodies at your door.

Whether we have been visited by a Phantom or Booed at the door it's still all the same cause we get goodies galore!
