Summer!

We are so behind in updating Lydia and Griffin’s blog...we’ve been having a great summer in America. Here a quick recap and a few pics: the kids joined a local swim team, have been busy at summer camp at their new school. Lydia spent a week with Aunt Kimmer and Uncle Jesse, we went camping in Virginia and reconnected with our best buds from Amman before they head back overseas. Phew! 

Beach Week 2018

Isle of Palms, SC with the grandmas and grandpas. 

Park Time

There is no shortage of green space around Raleigh! The last couple of weeks, Lydia and Griffin have explored nearly every park in the area thanks to Grandma and Grandpa. 

America!

We had an easy journey home and enjoyed our first day back in the US. We couldn’t help but giggle about the things Lydia and Griffin were overly impressed with on their first day in Raleigh: the trees, the grass, mailboxes, a water tower, a drinking fountain (they had no idea how to use it). It’s good to be back! 🇺🇸

Then and Now

We leave Jordan this week after three adventure-filled and memorable years. It's hard to believe our time here has come to end and it's wild to see how much Lydia and Griffin have grown!

Then...June 2015 (Lydia 3/12 years old, Griffin 17 months)

and Now...April 2018 (Lydia 6 years old, Griffin 4 years old)

Trail Ride

This year is off to a busy start as we prepare to depart Jordan next month. Lydia and Griffin are still managing to squeeze in some time to explore - trail riding with Daddy!
