Hey! Long time, no see!
Between this and that and life in general Bryn and I have completely neglected our poor little blog. So here's a quick update since we last spoke...
Bryn came to Japan for his spring break. It was cherry blossom season, and we took full advantage!
I moved back to Al Ain. I'm not working, but devoting my time to keeping our house as sand-free as possible (a full time job in itself), ironing Bryn's work shirts and working on my other blog. You knew I had another blog, right? This is it. I'm actually much better at keeping it up to date, and if you want to peek at the remainder of my time in Japan go read!
Bryn's garden is doing really well. Of course, with the intense desert heat a lot of things are...yeah, dying, but some things are doing really, really well! Like, his frangipani sticks. He picked them up off the side of the road. I laughed that he had stuck sticks in pots of dirt, but they are growing! One even flowered this week. It's very pretty and smells SOOO good.
We're slowly gearing up for our trip to the US this summer. It will be Bryn's first time at mom and dad's new house in Alabama, and his first time to meet William! He's looking forward to beer, BBQ and southern accents. I'm looking forward to planting myself at the pool and not moving til we have to come back. Ok, and a trip to New Orleans for beignets, cafe au lait and a po boy.
I promise we will try really hard to update this space more often. If there's nothing new here, check out Channeling Audrey to see if we've been up to anything!
Hey Emma!
ReplyDeleteSadly, no west coast this time. We have a lot of traveling to do this year (including a trip to Whangarei for my big bro's wedding!!), so summer will be on a bit of a budget. We are keen as punch to get up that way soon though. Napa calls...haha
