Time flies when you are having fun! It's crazy to think we have been in Dubai now for 16 weeks and have approximately 4 more weeks until we return home. We have all been so busy, which makes the time fly by!
Mason is keeping super busy at school and all of his extra-curricular activities. Between play groups after school, basketball, golf, rock climbing, birthday parties and the big brother program, he's been going nonstop! He also just received his progress report at school and is doing excellent! I am so proud of his resiliency and ability to adapt. Going back and forth between Texas and Dubai is probably the most challenging for Mason, but he's handling it like a trooper - most of the time :) Many have asked about the MMA class he took last year, and unfortunately that program is no longer offered this year. No worries though, he's making up for it with all the wrestling with daddy and his brothers!

One of the playgrounds, and our home away from home. The twins also love to play here!

We've been swimming nearly every weekend!
The twins are also having a blast and constantly learning something new! This has been a great experience for them, and they encounter people from various cultures and dress every day. The traditional Arab dress used to frighten them, but now they are used to the women in all black and men dressed in white. They have become friends with all of the staff here at the hotel, and everyone knows Jake and Cash. They have also have quite the well-rounded palate and are especially enjoying Indu's curry!
Silly Jake!
Cheeky-monkey Cash loves his hummus!

Mommy and Daddy are having a great time here as well. Godolphin is doing extremely well and just reached over 200 Group One wins, which is very impressive in the horse racing world! They have had an excellent meet this year, and hope to top it off with an equally impressive finish at the Dubai World Cup on Saturday, March 30th. www.Godolphin.com
I am also enjoying my time here and have made some great friends with moms at Mason's school. There is a lot of parent involvement, and a very vibrant and energetic campus. I started taking a TRX class with some other moms, which is an intense suspension fitness training program and I love it! We've been trying to do a dinner date night with Caroline and Bhupat and friends at least once a week. There are some amazing restaurants here, so it's exciting to try something new each week!
