Happy New Year to our dear family and friends all over the world!
No champagne or fireworks here in Khobar (in fact, we didn't even make it to midnight, due to jet lag), but we were awoken by lovely singing at the 5 am call to prayer.
Some of our New Year's resolutions include:
1. Being better friends with our families
2. Being better friends with our friends
3. Getting in shape. Working out 3x+/week
4. Staying positive in the face of frustration, stupidity, exasperation, and anger
5. Being appreciative for all that we have- both tangible and non-tangible
6. Teaching our children all we can about this fascinating country/region
7. Being kind, empathetic and generous
8. To make this new house a home.
9. To keep this blog current and backfill the past year
10. To capture our lives in "A Picture a Day"
May 2012 bring you and your loved ones only the best!!
