First Day / Last Day of School

Congratulations Bird - we are so proud of you. Happy summer vacation! 

Another Egg Hunt!

Lydia and Griffin participated in Easter festivities at the Embassy this weekend. The egg hunt was held on the lawn of Ambassor's residence. Lydia found one of the coveted golden eggs, scoring a special chocolate bunny for her efforts. She later enthusiastically reported that the Easter bunny that attended was not the real Easter bunny because she heard him talking and it was just a man dressed up like a bunny and also he didn't hop. 

Pit Crew

Dead Sea

First visit to the Dead Sea..1400 feet below sea level, Earth's lowest elevation on land! The water is so super salty, you can effortlessly lay back and float. Griffin tried the famous skin-soothing Dead Sea mud on his piggies..but hasn't reported any drastic improvements in his skin. 

Ready for School?

Griffin proudly walked Lydia to school last week (with his empty backpack)...and then bounced off the really clean glass door in her classroom attempting to escape to the playground. Let's hope his actual first day of school goes better! 

Jerash, Jordan

Enjoyed fantastic spring weather in the ancient city of Jerash this weekend. 

New habit...

...chewing the tips off of crayons. 

Grandma and Grandpa in Jordan!

Grandma and Grandpa arrived in Jordan this month. We promptly dragged them all over Southern Jordan visiting the amazing Petra, the breathtaking Wadi Rum and and the sunny, relaxing Aqaba. It was a wonderful adventure!
