Friday night both girls had their first recital of the year (and Ashlyn’s first recital ever). We are so proud of both of them. As a side note, you’ve gotta love a school/community where the music recitals are BYOB.

Straight from the performance we went to celebrate Guy Fawkes night at one of the other international schools. Great kids night with Khan’s BBQ and giant bonfire followed by fireworks. Thanks for a great evening, Braeburn. The full moon was stunning as well.
Last Sunday the kids and I went to ISM to enjoy a picnic lunch by the pool. We were surprised to find thousand and thousands of toad eggs in the pool. The kids accurately described them as looking like a necklace. Super gross and oddly fascinating. We spent a fair amount of time pulling them out of the pool so that it wouldn’t be closed later that week due to a tadpole infestation (which has happened before). The next day at my early morning swim lesson we had to fish a couple of toads out of the pool that were…ummm…trying to make more eggs. Apparently the toads can predict the weather very precisely because the rains started that day.
Jacarandas in full bloom. So pretty.
And we had this cool visitor to our garden recently, too.
P.S. – Happy Birthday, Dad. We love and miss you.
