Go Clippers !!

Our friends, the Yarchever's, generously offered us their suite at the Staples center for the Clippers vs. Bucks game. We graciously accepted and took the whole Khoury family to help root for the Clippers !!

This was Maya and Sahara's first NBA basketball game.

Maya had a great view from the balcony of the suite.


Go Clippers !!!


Sahara enjoyed the view from Uncle Saba's shoulders.



I think someone was happy...



Uncle Brian and Cousin Christopher smiling from ear to ear.

In the end, the Clippers killed the Bucks and a good time was had by all.

Weekend Warriors

We took the family on a little weekend vacation up to Santa Monica and to Hollywood. The weather was sunny and cool; perfect weather for our meandering.

We stayed at a super chic hotel called The Huntley. See Sahara posing on their comfortable bed.

Sahara was riding side car with daddy in a sling. This was a great way to cruise around the 3rd street promenade shops and farmer's market.

Here's mommy and daddy in front of the Santa Monica Pier Ferris Wheel.

Here's Maya posing while mommy and daddy rest before dinner. As you can see in the background, the weather was gorgeous.

We enjoyed walking through the Farmers Market on 3rd in W. Hollywood.

Here's Sahara and Maya hanging out at The Grove in W. Hollywood.

Here's Maya smiling at Sahara's funny hat.

The Amazing Tales of Sahara & Maya

The twins are 8 months now and they are amazing us with their new skills. Recently Sahara and Maya enjoy stealing toys from each other. It's like watching a tennis match at Wimbledon. They also like chasing each other around the house, which is really cute. And their latest thing, they try to communicate with each other through a series of yells and babble. Absolutely adorable !!

We have started reading to the girls at night before bedtime. Although Sahara prefers to read to us instead. Just a small problem Sahara, the book is upside-down.

Here you can see that Sahara is very excited about Daddy reading to her.

Here's a picture of Maya & Sahara basking in the warmth of the fire on a cold January night. Sahara is brushing her gums before bedtime.

Home for the Holidays 2006

Needless to say Christmas 2006 was spectacular. It was the first for the twins and full of wonderful memories.

Grandpa Paul dressed up as Santa Claus. Shhhh...the twins think that Santa is real.

Here's a picture of Santa holding the best presents of all.

Maya and Sahara enjoyed opening their presents more than anything else. As you can see, dad had them both sporting mohawks.

Khoury Christmas 2006 !!!

Here are both sets of twins with all three grandmothers. From left: Sahara, Grandma Rose, Maya, Grandma Gloria, Dominic, Grandma Linda and Milani.

Christmas Eve celebration.

It would not be a family get together without Uncle Brian practicing WWE wrestling moves on the babies. As you can see, Sahara is loving it.

This smile pretty much sums up how happy we were this holiday season.
