Eid in Abu Dhabi

Image
By
Last weekend was a holiday weekend here in Dubai.  Eid.
I am not really sure what Eid is, but it seems to be important to them... and fun for us!
We went to Abu Dhabi for the first time, my friend Frances lives there and since it was a long weekend, it was perfect timing!
On Wednesday, the day before we left, Amalias tooth broke!!!
Ahhh! Impossible to get photos of it right now though.
And any day now the other one will break, I am sure before the end of the weekend.








This last picture is of Kaiden.  He looked SO cute in his race gear, I regret not getting a picture of him but my friend had the camera. =(
Racing was so much fun, except that I hate to drive.
I haven't driven in months.  These little cars were no joke!
And as expected John came first!! My own personal speed racer. =)
My arm muscles hurt for days after.
Next time we go to Abu Dhabi we will have to do Ferrari world.  That city is all about its racing!

Long Awaited

Ethan has had the typical "little brother" problems. A huge one being that he has been going to all Kaidens scouting activities for 2 years and couldn't participate. Being the observer of your bigger brother having fun... not so much fun. Then we had the move to Dubai, so what should've been his first year, wasn't. He was so excited and was all smiles at his very first scouting event where he could participate! I can't get over how cute and official he looked in his uniform. He took every belt loop he earned extremely seriously. It's also weird to see Kaiden in his webelo uniform, I always saw it as for the "bigger boys". I guess my little Kaiden is one of the big boys now.

Because Of You

By
Daddy, because of you I...well, exist.  Because of you I know I am special because you told me every day.Because of you I made it through some really hard times, you were and are still always there for me.  Because of you I always know I have a friend to listen that always has my back.  Thanks for letting me watch T.V. when I wasn't allowed to, bringing me home chocolates and pepsi (which was a BIG deal back then).  Thank you for everything you have done for me, and I hope you know how much I love you. Jesse, because of you I have the 2 most wonderful little boys in the world.  I know we may not always see eye to eye but when it comes to our boys we can always come together and do what is best for them and I appreciate that, and I am sure when they are old enough to understand what we do for them, so will they. John, because of you the boys have a good role model.  Because of you  I get to show them by example what a loving, caring relationshi...
