Monday, June 14, 2010. Maine - Summer 2010 Part 2. Allison speaking. For part two I decided to focus on one of my side trips with A1 (Allyson). We went to Camden, a tourist favorite destination. I've been to Camden once before for Nathan and Jaimie's wedding reception but wasn't able to see the downtown area. A beautiful day in Maine's Mid-Coast. Lovely boats sitting in the harbor. We enjoyed the nice sunshine. Luckily the rain started after we were driving home. Maine - Summer 2010 Part 1. Below is Ben&...

Jon & Al: Dust Storms...Yuck!
http://allibaba13.blogspot.com/2011/03/sandstormsyuck.html
Friday, March 25, 2011. Being in Kuwait has some perks I have to admit. One is that it the temperature here is quite lovely, nice and warm :) In February, Germany was experiencing cold temperatures, snow, and gloomy days. I was happy to be here in Kuwait where it was in the 70s. This past week it was in the high 80s and actually hit 90 degrees. Well, no place is perfect. Tonight I experienced my first full-fledged dust storm. One word can describe the experience.yuck! Can you name the movie? F is for Fall.

Jon & Al: May 2011

Wednesday, May 11, 2011. Have you ever seen a billboard or a sign and wondered "What were they thinking? Or "Wow, they need to re-work that translation.". A few years ago, back in December 2007, my family was in Kuwait for our Christmas Break. One day we were in our car driving past an area that had a ton of car dealerships. Up high on one of the car dealership buildings there was an advertisement for convertible cars. My younger sister Rachel and I started busting up laughing. Thursday, May 5, 2011.

Tuesday, November 30, 2010. This post is to congratulate my brother Chris who just received his mission call. He has been called to serve in the Argentina - Rosario Mission. He reports to the MTC on March 23rd. Chris, I'm so proud of you my 'little' brother :). Monday, November 15, 2010. Well, it's about time I wrote on this blog and let everyone know that yes, we are still alive here in Germany. I would like to thank my friend Elisabeth for the very kind and tactful reminder to update the blog ;). Well,...

Jon & Al: October 2009

Thursday, October 29, 2009. Enjoy the Quiet Moments. I've noticed that lately our life has been kind of chaotic in the Dyer household. About two and a half weeks ago Jon and I took a trip to visit my family and it has been busy ever since. First, the visit with the Gibbs Family. When Jon told his commander and other people in his unit that he was going to Kuwait for his 4 day weekend, they thought he was crazy. For you see, what most people in the army see is the endless sand in the middle of the cou...

Sunday, January 15, 2012. Girls Trip to Dubai. Yep, guess who has ignored this lovely blog.me. So, without further ado (and to prove that I am alive and kicking) here is a blog update. Sitting in front of the Burj Khalifa. Insert Caption (Choice #1): "ET phone home". Insert Caption (Choice #2): "Beam me up Scotty". Me trying to be artistic by taking a picture of the Burj Khalifa's reflection TURNED into me getting weird looks from a family that thought I was taking a picture of their family/kids. The tri...

Jon & Al: Quick Trip Home to Deutschland
http://allibaba13.blogspot.com/2011/04/quick-trip-home-to-deutschland.html
Thursday, May 5, 2011. Quick Trip Home to Deutschland. We’ve made it to the 10 week mark. To help with my sanity, I keep many countdown meters. I get giddy when I can check off another day. Here are a few pictures of Jon from our trip to Maine last Ch ristmas. Perhaps my most favorite shot is the below picture of Jon up on Owen's (our nephew) loft. Many a times we found him quietly tinkering away with the Legos. In case anybody was wondering…Jon is doing alright in his location. His back is on the mend.

Thursday, November 12, 2009. Business Conference - Munich. Last Saturday I went to a business/investing conference in Munich, Germany. My dad and I were representing Gryphon Airlines and one of their partners. The conference was very interesting although it was mostly in German. Thankfully between my limited German and the translating from my Dad.I was able to understand most of it. My dad and I in front of the world famous Glockenspiel. Same spot, this time it's Jon and me.

Monday, January 25, 2010. A Trip to Paris. Jon speaking: Forgive the sarcasm. it was a long drive in French traffic. I thought New York drivers were bad. those guys are small fish to the French. Anyways, the trip was a success! That would be the Eiffel Tower. Obviously, what else would it be in down-town Paris? I convinced Allison to walk down the stairs from the second stage of the Eiffel Tower. It was fun to wind down the stairs and see the inside of the Tower. Any ideas out there? A Trip to Paris.
