Eid Mubarak

A nice 9 day holiday to spend time together, Eid Mubarak everyone.
Eid started Thursday 11 October and we spent many a day at the movies (now that we could enjoy popcorn while watching hehehe) so this post will be a bit of a movie review posting.
After each movie we would rate the movie one to five stars and then average the scores out....
Underdog -

Ratatouille -

Nancy Drew -

And then well there were the movies at home (many of which we had seen at the movies previously), some some of the ones watched :
High School Musical 2

Surf's Up -

How to Eat Fried Worms -

Other than the movies, well the adults did have some work to do and whenever possible, the girls enjoyed the trampoline, and then there was always rugby to fall back on heheheh

It's finally a bit cooler.....

Eid Mubarak !
Well I'm back from Oman, wonderfully enriching experience over the two days.
The family is all good and Uncle Lerry (as the girls insist on pronouncing Larry) is staying with us while Andrè is away. He arrived in kingdom on Sunday night last week and is getting settled at the moment.
Before Andrè left however we did have a day or two and with the weather finally cooling down, we enjoyed some time outside.
Girls playing, of course dad's car parked in front of the house was just too tempting and had to get 'washed'. Camping across the street was also very necessary once the adults had disappeared inside again. Fun was had by all hehehe
And then Andrè had to leave us but not before I took the girls for a haircut :)
Lucy requested it and Aimee got coerced into following her lead hehehe
....MUCH easier to get washed an brushed now !

Best I clarify quickly - Andrè has gone to California for 10 days - work related (if it was a holiday I'd have some serious problems hehehe), will be back on the 31st, just in time to watch the girls while I go to a two day conference in Bahrain ! And then its Halloween :) our compound celebrations are on Friday the 3rd so watch for photos thereafter :)
It's Eid right now so we're at home for the week - hopefully getting some time to catch up on work.
Have a great week everyone, til the next posting I guess.
