We took a little trip to the Sinai this past weekend. It's always nice to get out of the city and breath fresh air and see stars. We drove through some amazing scenery...wow...God is so creative! The most fasinating part of the trip was that we crossed over into Asia, stayed on the Red Sea looking over Saudi Arabia in an area that some believe to be the place that Moses crossed over with the Israelites...and we were near a Bedouin village...just typing that amazes me! We are so grateful for the experiences that God allows us to enjoy.
It was a little windy...
The Red Sea...with Saudi in the background and where some believe Moses crossed...(and where we made a sand castle!)
Bedouin lady making bread dough...
Her name was Selma...
Mariah and Madison posing with her...
Meredith making her bread...just imagine if we had to do this everyday..we would starve!
Matt had to have a turn...I love his concentration face!
But this was definately Madison's cup of tea... or slice of bread..:)
We loved this sign and even went back to see the camel races but they didn't have them at the time they were advertised...:)
But we did find a camel hanging out in the street...and Matt almost had a head on collision with one!
Tostitos sell here for about $8 a bag...not at the commissary...$2!!!
Bacon...and do you see the biscuits and crescents to the left? We can't even find those here!!
Can you tell we are excited?!?
We took Santa hats for great pics at the pyramids...
We became quite popular when we got the Santa hats out of our bag....
Little girls love to have their picture made with Meredith...
Madison waiting on us to finish riding the camels...she's content to just sit on the desert sand and rocks..:)
Night on the Nile...
The Red Sea...with Saudi in the background and where some believe Moses crossed...(and where we made a sand castle!)

Well, we were a little late this year getting to the actual party for Madison and Matthew Ray...people visiting and an appendectomy threw us off this year. :) I was determined to make a really cool rainbow cake this year. I don't think I could have made it without Mariah's help but it turned out great! We had a full house and everyone had a great time!
