Morning Snooze
Every morning right around 5:30am Bella comes in to our room to join us in bed to have some milk before heading off to school. Invariably Jake has joined us sometime earlier in the night and Bella will often fall back asleep before Mark takes her down to the car at 6am. We took this photo a few days ago... and just had to put it on the blog!
The two little Murnanes enjoy a few more minutes of sleep before getting for a hard day of playing, hanging out with their friends, and more playing.

Jake's First Haircut!
A couple of days after we got back from Bali we took Jake to the salon for his first haircut! Things started off great... but then Jake realized what was going on... and you can see for yourself what happened.
Jake was fired up to sit in the little car.
Hmmm... what is going on here?
Ok - that's enough...I'm outta of here!
Poor little guy... Icha had to jump in and hold our little boy.
Almost done!
Bella ignored all the ruckus and had fun riding in her own car while pretending to eat some ice cream.
When we got home, we rewarded Jake by letting him play with his new favorite toy: MONEY!

Returning Home to a Huge Surprise!
After 11 days (that went by all too quickly!) in Bali, it was time to return home to Jakarta. Upon arrival at our house we were in for a big surprise: CHRISTMAS PRESENTS from Ma and Pa. The ever so wonderful Ma & Pa had brought us a bunch of presents when they came to visit us in October and we safely hid them away from Jake and Bella until the holidays. It was a great way to officially end our trip.
Bella, Jake and Icha smile before boarding our plane.
Bella strikes a serious pose before getting down to business.
Another gift... what could it be?
Bella's favorite present: a book with lots of pictures of her daddy from when he was a kid. Here she laughs at a picture of an incredibly stylish & hip Mark from when he was 5 years old.
Jake LOVED his first spinning top!
The next day Bella got right to work on coloring her Alaska felt coloring page.
The talented artist shows off her work.

Christmas in Bali pt V
On Friday we celebrated the New Year by heading back for seafood bbq at Jimbaran.
Jacob Bima Murnane.... a footwear fashion icon.
Mark and Icha pose together in a rare photo.
Jake crawls around in search of more 'hand shoes' while Bella and Mark smile.
Mark first came to Bali in September of 1992... things sure have changed!
When we got back to our hotel, Jake was thoughtful enough to put on the hotel slippers all by himself.

The next day we spent a lot of time on the beach.... fortunately our hotel is right next to the water. Including a restaurant right on the sand!
Being ever the good son, Jake brings Mark his shoes.
Bella and Jake ready to go!
Icha, Bella and Jake get ready to venture out into the 6 inch waves.
Like father like son: Jake could spend hours playing in the sand.

The next day we had lunch at a restaurant complete with a stage... Bella entertained us with her Balinese dancing.

Christmas in Bali pt III
A few days later we headed over to Jimbaran Bay to meet some friends from Jakarta to swim and have dinner on the beach. Jimbaran has what are perhaps the greatest fresh fish bbq huts in the world, a very nice beach and is the place where Michele and Brett spent part of their honeymoon.
Mark and Jake smile... to the left of Mark is the famed Four Seasons Jimbaran Bay where Michele and Brett celebrated their marriage in style.
Bella enjoys playing in the water as the goes down.
Jake let us know he was hungry!
Fantastic food right on the beach... all at an amazing price!
