Last week

Our last week in the states was very busy! We had lots of last minute shopping and doctors appointments. 


Elise LOVES the dentist! She walked around the rest of the afternoon showing off her pearly whites!

We had her birthday celebration at Granny's house. She requested cheeseburgers, avocados, and strawberries. 

Our last day I took the girls to the children museum in Sugar Land. We never get to go to places like this in Saudi! They had a blast and had no idea that mommy wasn't going to sleep for the next 30 hours! 😂😂

The night before that Erin and I met for drinks and a yummy dinner in Houston. 

On our way to the airport...saying goodbye to our freedom for a little while again. 

Elise did wonderful on the fight! Claire did better than she has! I just would like for her to sleep more. 


Playing in the Dubai airport after our 14 1/2 hour flight. Only one more to go from here!
When we got through customs, the girls ran like they were in a marathon to Josh!

Family Fun!

My mom, sisters, and I had a great girls getaway in Houston, celebrating BeBe's birthday. We ate and drank the weekend away! 
The first night was a fabulous restaurant called B and B Butcher. 




We ended our weekend with mimosas at Benji's.

My girls were excited that KK came in early to take them to the children's museum! They had a blast!

I was thrilled to get to watch Gregory and Marissa one night, too!


They have so much fun together!

Our last big day was taking Elise to the American girl store for her birthday. Lauren and Ms. Heather met us there. Elise was overwhelmed and so excited!



We did our celebrations of birthdays! We hate not being able to spend our birthdays together!
We can't wait for everyone to come see us in Saudi at Christmas.
