meaning…. “long time”!
So sorry it has been a while since I have updated our blog. We had a wonderful Christmas, great new year, guests from the states for two weeks, made two Dubai trips, one Muscat trip, and two Sohar trips in the last month… its been a little busy to say the least.
I hope to give this blog a “face lift” during our semester break- which starts in 4 days!! We have one day of class left, 2 exam days, and a party then we are done with our second semester of Arabic- so hard to believe! We are also coming up on our one-year anniversary out here. Look forward to pics from Christmas, our visit with our friends, a local wedding and a recap from our first year here!
Also, something to look forward to… I stated a 365 photo project (which means you take a picture a day for 365 days- one year) to help improve my photography skills, give you a taste of our everyday life, and work toward maybe getting a more professional camera (Jord is letting me borrow her old one now). I started it on Jan. 1st, so I have already taken 15 photos that I have yet to share with you. I plan on added a page to this blog and updated the pics weekly. Again, this won’t happen till our break, but get excited! I know I am. Also, Chase has really wanted to make it a goal to post on here more often- so hopefully in 2012 you will get to hear from someone other than me!
Happy New Year! Hope it has been great so far!

I’m so glad you’re doing this too! This is my first year to ‘really try’. (I started once and got all of three pictures taken… epic fail). I can’t wait to see your pics too! I started another blog for it so I can print them easily and I’m posting on Flickr. Probably overkill but oh well! I started carrying my camera everywhere and I look like a dork but I’m taking pictures I would have never taken. CANNOT wait to see your pics. oh how I wish I had done this even one year overseas… They’re pics you can never get back!
