The Global Nomads: Iftar
http://daleandtara.blogspot.com/2015/07/iftar.html
Friday, July 03, 2015. We are in the midst of Ramadan here in Saudi, a time where everything moves at a slower pace, and it is against the law to even eat or drink in public. As a non-Muslim, we go about our days almost the same, but I think frequently of the many imported workers who are in the 117 degree heat with no food or water all day. It is definitely humbling. Last night, our dear, dear Malaysian friends invited a bunch of us to an Iftar. Meal- our first official Iftar. These two beauties always ...

The Global Nomads: The Day Santa Died
http://daleandtara.blogspot.com/2015/06/the-day-santa-died.html
Friday, June 26, 2015. The Day Santa Died. So, we told her. And her heart broke. And so did ours. Even thought it was almost a month ago that we told her, every now and then, she'll just get this dejected look on her face and say, "There's no Santa." This is a kid who lives in the magic of life, and so this was a doozy for her. But it might make a perfect Santa gift this year. June 27, 2015 at 1:45 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Global Nomads: May 2015
http://daleandtara.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 19, 2015. However, wouldn't you know that the boy shorts are pretty darn short and, again, parts are hanging out that she doesn't want hanging out. We lived with it this year as it was better than it was, but she still wasn't totally at ease. And she looks downright beautiful. Links to this post. Monday, May 04, 2015. Two ponytails and this type of outfit bring me back to my own childhood, and I couldn't resist taking a photo in front of our school. Links to this post.

The Global Nomads: Sojo and Shadow
http://daleandtara.blogspot.com/2015/07/sojo-and-shadow.html
Saturday, July 25, 2015. Sojo just came to me and said that I needed to come out and take a photo of her. That type of request is not typical, so I knew it had to do with her new best friend, Shadow. We are just curious about the towel under him. Worried about an accident? For us, that is the best part of having a dog like this- all the fun without the early morning walks and poop pickup. We are so happy for her and totally love this type of dog. No poop, no fur.just love. Love, Popo.

The Global Nomads: November 2014
http://daleandtara.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 29, 2014. The trip was great for the kids as there was pretty instant gratification in finding the roses. Once you dug about waist deep, you could feel around with your fingers and wedge them out. They are pretty fabulous to see. We brought home about 15 of those beauties and cleaned the sand out of the grooves to display all their loveliness. I'm sure this will be a yearly trip for us. Links to this post. Friday, November 21, 2014. Not even how can we compete with that! One thing I lo...

The Global Nomads: October 2014
http://daleandtara.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 31, 2014. It's that time of year again when we can walk to school and enjoy a cup of coffee while doing so. The shift is so subtle here at first, but usually by November 1, it's like a switch is turned on for cooler weather. No matter the weather, this one is almost always riding her bike to school. As always, I love to watch her fly away on the bike ahead of me, pumping those growing legs of hers. Links to this post. Wednesday, October 15, 2014. I swear she is like I remember being when ...

The Global Nomads: Dude Ranch and Ten Years
http://daleandtara.blogspot.com/2015/07/dude-ranch-and-ten-years.html
Monday, July 27, 2015. Dude Ranch and Ten Years. We celebrated our ten-year anniversary this past week, and my brother hooked us up with a night at a fabulous dude ranch here in Tucson. It was absolutely stunning and nestled right into the mountains. The casita itself was exactly what Dale and I would love to live in- small but not too small and with tons of Mexican touches to it. I promise to be your true companion wherever our journeys take us. How time flies when you are having fun.

The Global Nomads: Shorts
http://daleandtara.blogspot.com/2015/05/shorts.html
Monday, May 04, 2015. Two ponytails and this type of outfit bring me back to my own childhood, and I couldn't resist taking a photo in front of our school. Almost done with 2nd grade, this girl. So exciting and beautiful to watch her growing up. She is such a compassionate person, and we are proud to be her parents. Love the photo. See you all soon, Love NieNie. May 8, 2015 at 7:42 PM. Looking forward to seeing you soon. May 15, 2015 at 6:17 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

The Global Nomads: January 2015
http://daleandtara.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 25, 2015. Links to this post. Friday, January 23, 2015. Kudos to her for branching out and trying something new. Kudos to us for steering her towards a sport where Dale and I can watch instead of being the coaches. Links to this post. Friday, January 16, 2015. Add in Cheesecake Factory and the Rainforest Cafe, and it was a dose of all the finer things that we need living in a small town and a conservative country. Links to this post. Thursday, January 01, 2015. Yesterday, Dale and I heade...
