Entry #37 HUGE NEWS!!!!

Starbucks is now serving chai lattes!! This is a mixed blessing for me. I love them so much and I am thrilled that I can now get them here in Kuwait. However, it is not good for the future of our savings account! I am trying to limit myself to one a week. I should be working on my intro at chai latte anonymous "Hi my name is Heather and I have an addiction!"

Besides the chai latte news nothing much is new with us. Isaac is doing well after his surgery and Zoe continues to enjoy her small class. Jamie is starting to coach the school's soccer club two days a week, which is something that he would do at home but it is a paid position here. I will start to tutor a grade 11 student this week. Life is busy and the time is flying by.

I have included some pictures of our adventures. My friend (Kim) and I took the kids to the camel market again this year. Last year Zoe and Isaac would not get out of the car but this year they were both excited to feed the camels. Zoe was so excited that she almost lost a hand..apparently camels don't care what they chomp on and Isaac still talks about it.


This is Hudson, Maguire and Zoe is standing behind them.



There was a bit of a stink!


Last year Jamie and I took the kids to the Grand Mosque and of course did not get to hear any of the tour as we followed a 1 and 3 year old around. So this year Kim babysat our kids and Jamie and I were able to go and actually listen, learn and take our time looking around. As you can see from the pictures it is quite grand. Apparently the main hall can hold up to 10,000 men and the women's pray room can hold up to 950 women.



I have also included a few random pictures.
had her face painted at the mall and was quite happy for the rest of the day.

That is it for now!
