Sunrise on Sunday



These are just a few more snapshots of us during the day. As the sun was going down Ash and I went out on the balcony and sat for awhile. Unknown to us Michael came out of a window and snapped the picture. The next one is of Ash goofing off as usual. She is just so cute and ya can not help but love her. The picture to the left was sunrise this morning. A little clearer than the last one I took but still a little dusty. Oh well what do you expect in sandstorm season. That is all for today see you tomorrow same place same station. Over and out.

Are we having fun Yet?

This is me sitting at new table probably updating blog. I love the new set at least now I do not have to do it sitting in the bed with a box under the computer so it will not overheat. Also, the Quilt on Michaels couch is one I made and I think it looks rather nice draped over the back. I now have to make one for the matching one on the other side of the room. I am sure I will find something for it.

There are 2 pictures of my Pepsi bottles and Sprite that we drink over here one pic is in English and the other one is in Arabic. It tastes the same so I am happy. So do hope you enjoy Love to All from Kuwait.

Snapshots of life in Kuwait





These are just a few shots of around Michaels place. As you can see the trash just piles everywhere and most of it is construction trash as they are building house after house around here. Most of the houses almost touch each other and that is why in the back of the house on the patio off the master Michael had them put up a privacy screen as the next balcony was touching his and the patio door looked into his bedroom.
The picture with the yellow triangle is the electricity sub-station or something. They are at every other house. There is one across the street from Michael and then there is one right next door. So I just thought I would put these up and I do hope you like them.
To my 4 girls back home I wish you much love and a kiss to you all. I love you and Miss you so much.

Our New Furniture Has Arrived




This is the new furniture that we got yesterday at CentrePointe store. The new end tables and coffee table make the living room look really nice. The red color shows real well next to the brown couches.
The table and 4 stools look nice to. It is a nice place for computer work and eating. It is a nice addition to the room.

Shopping Part 2

The man with all the money got to push the cart full of goodies.






The above pictures are of our shopping trip. We went to the Al-kout Mall and had some lunch at the food court. Ash had a personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut and Michael and I had a philly cheese steaks and the fixings from a place called Kudu. The food was wonderful. We then went over to the Sultan center and did our grocery shopping. We shopped really well I watch the prices as they are outrageous for American food. So we got some little steaks, chicken breasts, and I bought 4 bottles of Pepsi. We spent 48 KD for all of our food. So in US money that was $180. Not bad for our first outing. Although he did buy Ashleigh a chair for her to sit in. Love to all my girls especially my baby Alyssa.

A Big Shopping Day




This is a few pictures of the start of our day. The one to the left is sunrise during a sandstorm. Above the pictures are of a McDonald's that was near the Centrepointe shopping area that we went to. We went looking for a dining room set and some lamps. We walked around awhile and found quite a few things. We did find a Dining room set, a set of lamps for the bedroom, a lamp for Ashleigh's room, laundry basket for Ash(it folds up so she can take it home), I got 2 shirts, Ash got a shirt and a wallet. I do believe We girls spent the man dry. LOL

Another Day in Paradise

Michael went back to work this morning. So from 6:30 till about 1:30 we were here by ourselves, but did we know it no as we were asleep. Still trying to figure out the time difference. But, at least I got up and ate breakfast with Michael and then did a little computer stuff and then went back to bed. The pictures below are of us enjoying sunset out on Michaels front balcony. The pictures of Ash are for her mother so that she can see she is doing well. Tomorrow we go to Fahaheel to a big furniture store called Centrepointe and then to the Souk across the street. This is where Michael does his food shopping. So good night love to All and may God Bless.
