A Few More Random Pictures

Here are a few more recent pictures including shots from an evening where Nora honed her face painting skills.   She came up with a “menu” of designs she was confident with and then set about painting every cheek (and some foreheads) in the house.   The menu entry for the cat nose and whiskers was especially cute since it came with optional “angry eyebrows”

Random Pictures

Here are a few recent pictures.  The main event was the sock assault.  One evening we sent Kai and Nora up to get their jammies on and when they came down they did, indeed, have jammies on but they also had their shirts stuffed with their entire sock drawers.  It was amusing enough for me to reach for my iphone for a picture.  It was when they unleashed a torrent of cottony missiles that we realized that the socks weren’t stuffing…they were ammunition!

Christmas 2013

A few pictures posted from Christmas 2013!   The Jacobs family had a good year and although we spent Christmas in Saudi Arabia and far from family we managed to indulge our favorite traditions and made some wonderful memories with Kai and Nora.

Rock Hunting

A few weeks ago we had some rain (very late in the season for that) so we headed out to the wadis in the desert at the edge of camp.  The rain runoff had exposed some new rocks and we found some really interesting ones.   It was hot but still bearable.   At this point just a few weeks later we are already climbing well into the 100’s every day so our desert trips are probably done for the season.
