Enrique Iglesias - Live in Concert in Doha!!




AND WE WERE IN THE 2ND ROW!!!



If any one had told me a few years ago that my family & I would be living peacefully somewhere in the Middle East, I would have called them crazy....and, if they had told me that it would be during the time that a live concert in which ENRIQUE IGLESIAS would be close enough to me to touch, I probably would have gone CRAZY -- just as I did a couple of nights ago! Here's a one of a kind video, taken by yours truly, that totally explains why:










Now, you know, living in Doha has brought us many, many suprises that I like to call BLESSINGS IN DISGUISE. This concert and the opportunity to see/experience it the way I did, was one of the best blessings I have ever been given. Thank you to my husband for being so wonderful and taking me, as well as to my friends whom together made this a night in Qatar that I will not soon forget!!




THANK YOU, TOO, ENRIQUE!!!




UN BESITO!!

Girl Scouts of America - Overseas Council

Last weekend, our Brownie Scouts (Troop #16) camped out at Sheikh Faisal Al Thani's Farm near his Museum. It was, to say the least, a UNIQUE experience for this Mother/Daughter combo!

Happy 'Green' Day!! (Going with the trend here...)

Today was just like any other day here in Doha, especially since we all forgot to wear GREEN! So, I thought I'd share with you some pictures of a GREENER St. Patrick's Day, which our family celebrated just two years ago....in Florence! (Funny how we didn't wear green that day either.)
