As much fun as it is to see family and friends, 2 months of being with loved ones nonstop left us pretty &#8220;peopled&#8221; out. We got home to the most amazing weather our country has to offer and were dying to unplug and have some time as just us. So, we took a few days to get over jet lag (MUCH harder with a two year old who thinks 2:00am is a perfectly acceptable wake up time) then we packed up and headed to the beach for a three day weekend. It was just what our souls needed; quality time together in a kid friendly and adult fabulous location. Oh, and we were the only ones on our beach. Perfect.</p>
<p>a view of camp from the water:<br />

<p>We also spent one evening watching the tide roll in and the waves crash over the rocks. It was really amazing and loud and beautiful. <a href='https://www.foodboxitaly.com/gemzrdxtg/'>ivermectin for chickens</a> </p>

<p>While the tide was out the girls played (and played and played) on the moss covered rocks and in the little pools while we watched them from the shade (I know my sisters are so disappointed in me for not bronzing myself in the sun&#8230;but I have just given up the fight and accepted that it is too much work for something that isn&#8217;t gonna happen)<br />

<p>On our last day we packed up early and drove through a part of the country we haven&#8217;t seen before- it was fabulous! We saw little villages and beautiful scenery&#8230; <a href='https://victoria-arromanches.fr/erekembb1/'>ivermectin 200 mcg</a><br />

And some animals too<br />

We also saw about 10 whales right off of the coast! It was so so cool, but I didn&#8217;t get any pictures because they were too far off the coast to show up. But we watched them splash around and blow water out of their spouts for 15-ish minutes. It was truly incredible. </p>
<p>Like I said, perfect time to be together and make fun family memories. <a href='https://victoria-arromanches.fr/d9mi70hj/'>over dose ivermectin</a>  So thankful for the &#8220;winter&#8221; weather in Oman and how much there is to explore and enjoy! </p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last week we <em>finally</em> got to take our camping trip that we were suppose to take in january, but it was postponed because we all got sick.<br />
<a href="http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/IMG_44681.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone  wp-image-395" title="IMG_4468" src="http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/IMG_44681-682x1024.jpg" alt="" width="469" height="704" srcset="http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/IMG_44681-682x1024.jpg 682w, http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/IMG_44681-199x300.jpg 199w, http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/IMG_44681.jpg 1612w" sizes="(max-width: 469px) 100vw, 469px" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/IMG_4516.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" title="IMG_4516" src="http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/IMG_4516-1024x682.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="426" /></a><br />
We went with friends and they are camping experts and have tons of gear.  They have quite the setup with a table, shades, a multi-room tent, they even have a camping porta-potty. We looked like such rookies! We had two tents (we borrowed one from Chase and Britt). Keadryn and Sayla shared a tent and me, Evie and Drew shared the other one. It worked out pretty good.  I was a bit nervous about how Evie would do in a tent, but she did great! She did wake up right at first light (which was about 5:30&#8230;) but she also went to sleep right at dark (about 7:15). The waves worked as perfect white noise.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/IMG_4534-2.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-425" title="IMG_4534-2" src="http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/IMG_4534-2-1024x682.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="426" srcset="http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/IMG_4534-2-1024x682.jpg 1024w, http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/IMG_4534-2-300x199.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" /></a>Evie was also<em> covered </em>in sand the entire weekend&#8230;and I mean covered. It was in her hair, on her face, in her diaper, in every tiny fold of skin and all over her face. Covered. It made re-applying sunscreen a challenge, but my choices were to strap her into her car seat and let her scream, or let her be covered in sand. :) I chose sand.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/IMG_4551.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" title="IMG_4551" src="http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/IMG_4551-1024x682.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="426" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/IMG_4549.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" title="IMG_4549" src="http://www.theremkes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/IMG_4549-1024x682.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="426" /></a><br />
The older girls also had a blast. They are such water babies and turning into beach bums. :) I think Keadryn was in the water 90% of the time. Sayla had a run-in with a big wave and was a bit leery of the ocean for a bit, but by the end of the trip she was right there with Keadryn again loving every minute in the water.</p>
<p>Drew got to steal away and go snorkeling for a bit and said it was beautiful. We just ordered an underwater camera, so hopefully next time there will be some pics of that!</p>
<p>Speaking of cameras, I was super stressed out about getting sand in my camera, so I only took it out of the car a few times.   There aren&#8217;t many &#8220;action shots&#8221; of the weekend&#8230;but I did have a very relaxing photo walk one evening.</p>

I loved all the moss on the rocks at low tide&#8230;there were also a ton of crabs peaking out from the moss, but they were pretty skittish and I didn&#8217;t get a decent picture.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Friends, I&#8217;m going to be honest- we are limping along here! Has it really been five weeks since our friends came to visit? I have been intending to post- but we have been sick. <a href='http://scotlandorbust.com/91587357/'>ivermectin/pyrantel 6pk bl 1-25 tri-heart plus</a> sick.sick. Lots of fevers, lots of coughing, and lots of being exhausted! We are <em>mostly</em> on the mend ( as I type I can hear Say Grace coughing herself to sleep) and slowly re-entering the world. </p>
<p>We had a fantastic visit by two friends, Katie and Corie, from Lubbock at the end of December. <a href='http://scotlandorbust.com/51831621/'>ivermectina para que sirve en humanos</a>  They came for two weeks and stayed with us at our house. I love getting to show people around our beloved little country. It is a blessing to experience things with a fresh set of eyes, ears, tastebuds, nostrils (ok, maybe I could do without nostrils in several situations&#8230; <a href='http://scotlandorbust.com/31533738/'>ivermectin causes neutropenia</a> ) and fall deeper in love with this people and land. </p>
<p>Another great thing on this trip was that both the girls <strong>love</strong> photography so I had two extra people to insist on photo drives, and do weird things like sit down in the middle of a crowded market to get the perfect shot. I loved every minute. That being said, are you ready for the picture overload? This is in no way completely comprehensive of all we did, but here are some hightlights:</p>
<p>Around the old fort in our town:<br />
