Girls Dubai Trip

I have a lot to update on our blog! We are now back in the states and are so excited to be here for the summer.

For Mother's Day, our husbands surprised all of us with a girls trip to Dubai! We were all pretty excited...two nights... With no kiddos, just the one hour flight was pretty amazing! 

We rented an apartment so we could all stay in the same place!

Josh had a blast with the girls! Elise somehow managed to talk him in to giving them manicures and pedicures! These are some pictures he had sent me!

Update from Saudi!

We have been having a few busy weeks here in the Kingdom, getting ready for the states and end of school! 

We went to Bahrain for a weekend with Bebe and Papa! 

Elise was so incredibly excited about pajama day at school. That is all she talked about for weeks. I was also excited we got to go to school to see everything they had been working on.

Elise's new thing is riding her bike. She wants to ride her bike everywhere! It is so nice too because I don't have to worry about her as much here since the car traffic is so low and there are kids everywhere! 

Our compound had their first 10k run this week too. We had a lot of fun helping get it together. Our friend Josie was in charge of it. No, I did not run the 10k, but the girls and I walked with our strollers in the sweltering Saudi heat!

They also had a 1k kids run!

We all got together to celebrate the Kentucky Derby!

We found as much tex mex in Saudi as we could to have a cinco de mayo party!

Easter

We had a lot of fun celebrating the Easter bunny in Saudi Arabia. The girls were so excited to find eggs and see what he left!

All Claire cared about was eating the chocolate!
