Back Home...
We finally made it back to the UAE. We can't believe a year ago we embarked on such a scary journey--not knowing what to expect, whom we would meet, what the culture would be like or worse, the school... But we survived, and I think thrived here.
We celebrated our first anniversary 10 days ago, and I really believe we made the right choice coming here. We got to start off on our own, relying on only each other and solving our own adjustment issues. I think we have enjoyed every moment of marriage, and if it's possible, I think I love Chris more than when we got married.

We didn't celebrate per say, but we did spend the weekend meeting the newest member of the Davis family: Ellie Louise. She was born 18 July, weighing 8lb 9oz. She is absolutely precious and everyone is completely besotted with her. Our time in Wales was quick and eventful, especially after seeing Steve, Michelle, and Ellie. Paul and Malvine took us around several of the sights: St. David's Cathedral, Llanesteffan Castle, Pembrey, and Tenby. The weather did not cooperate 100% of the time, but the little sunshine we had, we took full advantage of it.



While we have spent much of the summer traveling from place to place, we never forgot our family or never stopped missing them, and I think we realized how precious our time is with them.
We do want to let you know that we are starting the immigration process for Chris to come to the States. We have a lot of mixed feelings about all of this... We really love Al Ain. We love our new friends, our lifestyle, our freedom. However, we dearly miss our family. It also took a long time for us to decide if we are would move to the UK or the USA. We took everything into consideration: family, jobs, expenses, travel... We decided on the USA primarily because the cost of living is much greater in the UK and we have a higher chance of obtaining a job.
We will keep you all posted on the progress. Lots love.
