Today the boys did not have school so we went out in the dessert and dug for sand roses.
The girls road together while the boys took care of the kids in the other cars!
Great way to start a fun day!

As I was walking around talking pictures, I stumbled across this...

All I could think of MERS!!!!!

I love these pictures of Logan and Matthew and Julien and Chandler.
It is so great that the boys have found great kids to play and hang out with.
They are such good friends and truly bring out the best of each other.

It was great day spent with amazing friends!
On our way back to the freeway we saw some camel grazing.
I love to see camel roaming in the wilderness.
After our sand roses trip we stopped for a quick bite to eat before going to one of Jon's co-workers house.
Homed teaching Jon and to wear the keffiyeh properly.
Homed's wife Sara taught me how to wrap my hair with the scarf and tie on the niqab.
I love this picture of Jon and I! I think it is pretty funny!

Homed than took us to his camel farm.
We warmed up in his shelter because the wind had kicked up and it started getting cold.

Up close and personel with the camel!
They are so BIG! It was kind of intimidating!

Today was a wonderful day full of adventures!
Digging for sand roses was so fun and ending the day at Homed's camel farm was just amazing.
I am grateful that he rearranged his schedule to take us there and show us around.
Together forever!
Strengthening our family unity one memory at a time!
