We've been keeping busy with our first visit to the military base to check out the commissary, happy hours, shopping trips, nanny interviews and of course unpacking! We finally got our last shipment so everything is here (except for the missing silverware and blender!) We're still figuring out where to put everything in the house. We managed to unpack 13 boxes this weekend, so we have a little more room to move now! And the girls got their bikes, so they've terrorized the courtyard here.
The weather is getting better, or we're getting used to it. It's actually only going to be 100 degrees some days this week! It's not that bad on days that the humidity is low.
The embassy closed the pool and playground this month for maintenance, not the best timing especially since Molly's school was canceled until Dec. 1. But we took the opportunity to set up the old pirate pool from Uncle Jeff & Nicole in our courtyard! It's right off the dining room, so we've had our neighbors over a couple of times to enjoy the fun while the adults sit in the comfort of the ac!
Here's a picture of Caroline in her Gyurgian costume. It's a Halloween-like holiday to celebrate the midpoint of Ramadan.
We have a long weekend coming up and we're hoping to get the playroom/office unpacked and set up and maybe do a little exploring around town! It's the end of Ramadan so shops and restaurants should go back to normal hours.
Little Miss Fickle's grocery list was a little too frisky for Kuwait. This is a library book that Caroline brought home from school with the references to pork blacked out. Not the easiest thing to explain to a six year old!
