the RaMcCanSon family of 19 - go to Saipan


On Memorial Day Weekend... our husbands - Dale & Webb - planned a family trip to the island of Saipan. We stayed at the Pacific Island Club and enjoyed a relaxing family vacation all together! It was the first & the start of many get-togethers for our families.


Also on this trip - was my friend & neighbor - Sheila Cason & her family. It was so nice to spend a relaxing time together - vacationing and letting the kids enjoy a little get-away.

Sheila is an awesome photographer and captured Morgan wonderfully here as he was playing ping-pong on the PIC premises.

One of the highlights of this trip was - Sheila's hubby - John, taught our boys how to play on the giant chess set... it still is one of their favorite things to do since that trip! Thanks for teaching the kids, John... they love the wooden chess set you bought them! Too bad I didn't get a picture of you with them playing!!!

In the evening the kids enjoyed karaoke night... dancing and being up front. Dale sang a little Frank Sinatra (he's such an old soul)... and I loved hearing Beth & Webb sing their duet from the movie Music & Lyrics... what is the name of that song? Way Back To Love? Something like that.

The best part of the trip was just hanging out as adults as the kids ran around together. We enjoyed meals together and sat around talking with satifyed bellies! It's the simple things like not having to cook and clean up that I enjoyed most about this trip!!! Yeah!

Here's one of my favorite photo collages from our trip. No comment necessary... the pictures speak for themselves! How fitting that Beth's hubby is a Urologist... I should blow this one up for his office, what do you think?

Seven adults and twelve kids total... what a bunch. For that weekend we were the RaMcCanSon family. Ramirez . McCanse . Cason Families combined!

Here is a photo of all of us taken when we arrived back home to Guam. A fun and memorable trip!
