I survived the middle east with the smiths... life is too good to me. Enshalla.

Wow.... I still can't believe that I got to go to abu dhabi... to the other side of the world to the middle east! Definitely one of the best experiences of my life that I will never forget... and if some time in my old age I do start to go down hill in my memory skills... don't worrry I have a good 30 pages in my journal that will remind me of the unforgettable time. Camel races,camel rides, getting clothes made almost giving Gabrielle a heart attack, scrumpious tea parties, mosques with burkas, church on friday, henna, talking with the locals, and of course shopping and much much more. Thank you Smiths!

elucive lucy's passport has arrived...

So... ya know how I found my old passport and I was happy that it didn't expire till after the Abu Dhabi trip.... well.... what most people don't know is that your passport really expires about 6 months before the expiration date.... So thanks to toots, harry's aunt that is very well informed, told us this little imortant fact. So kate, harry's sister who is also well informed, knew how to get the passport here fast.... so we did what she told us to do.... and wouldn't ya know here it is! Life is good...

There is a light in my room...this is strange... but i like it!

I have been missing a light for almost two years now because I pretty much remodeled my room on my own a couple years ago and I didn't trust myself with the electrical portion of it so I just didn't do it. So... I kinda know this kid... his name is Harrison Bailey... he's a nice boy(most of the time). :) In fact, He is so nice he made me go to the Duncan light store... forced me to make a decision and pick a light fixture out (hard to do for an indecisive person, but good for them). Then... he put the light up for me... it was awesome, he is awesome and the light is awesome!

mmmmm......

A wonderful Friday evening with the wonderful big sis. Ate a wonderfully not so good McDonald's dinner while watching and equally not so good Matthew McConaughey movie... I didn't know it was possible to have Matthew McConaughey in a movie and it still be crappy oh but it sure is.... but itsallgood.... still had fun spendin time with abs! :)
