Technology... I better not get used to this!

Even though I don't like them being on iPad/ kindles/ DS... it is a nice break everyone in a while!

love at home

 I have loved the time that I have been able to live with my parents while waiting for the kids and I's visas so we can meet Jon in Saudi. My parents have been so much help. I could not have done it without them. I especially love the time and memories that Julien, Logan, and Kiki have made with my family.

Ballet class!

I signed Kiki up for dance classes for the few months we were in Utah! She did a lot better this time. She loved going, wanted to stay for the entire class and was paying very good attention to the instructions the teacher gave. She was so cute to watch!

My Cowboy Boots

I have wanted real cowboy boots for a long time now, but we have always been too broke for me to get some and I don't like to spend more than $20 for a pair of shoes anyway.

Jon knew about this desire of mine and had his first attempt at giving me the ultimate gift when he brought home The Absolute Most Hideous Purse with a Texas flag on it home from scout camp! It was a very cute thought though! And I did sport it a few times to show appreciation for the cute gesture.

A few days ago, a package arrived for me with the Coolest, Most Amazing Cowboy Boots EVER! I felt so lucky to have hubby who loves me and does nice things for me! I also got a very cool belt to go with the boots!
