Greetings !!

It's been several months since my last blog update. There are a lot of new things to report:

1. We moved to Wildomar, CA.
2. I'm pregnant with a little boy who is due in Feb.
3. Maya & Sahara started preschool.
4. We got guinea pigs.

I think that covers the big news. We had a wonderful summer and are now in full swing preparing for Fall and Halloween.

We went to the Bates Nut Farm pumpkin patch. It felt like we went to a pumpkin carnival. They had booths for games, arts and crafts, bouncy houses, pony rides, petting zoo and a whole lot of pumpkins.

Family photo. Even Bella got to come.

Check out these pumpkins. They are bigger than the girls.

Here's Sahara posing near a scarecrow.



Maya grabbed my camera and took a picture of her guinea pig, Brownie. We need to post a picture of Sahara's guinea pig, Road Runner.


Here's Nader and his cousin Tina hanging out in Miami a few weeks ago.




Here's Nader roughing it.


Here are the girls touching a sea anemone at our favorite beach, Diamond Beach in Laguna Beach.

We dug a hole for each of the girls to play in. As you can see, Maya is on her way to China.

Maya has mastered the art of making sand balls. It's not as easy as it looks.


Horseback riding is one of the girls favorite things to do. Usually Sahara likes the fast horse and Maya likes the slow horse.

Here's a close up. These pictures were taken at Griffith Park in L.A.
