New Wheels / Strollers Are Like Soulmates

Today we had a perfect start to the holidays.  It included a trip to the Avenues (like every happy Friday should!), some lazy afternoon playtime (like every happy Friday should!), and some SERIOUS Olympic viewing (our daily trend for the past two weeks!).  Tomorrow's mission is to soak up some sunshine since I'm a tad embarrassed that we didn't take advantage of the gorgeous weather today.  Oh well, that is what tomorrow's are for :) 

A quick photo opp at the mall.  Kuwait National Day and Liberation Day are next week and so festivities are everywhere!

The mall was extra fabulous today because Nory got to try out her new "trike" as we shopped.  It is THE ABSOLUTE BEST, being the first stroller-like contraption that Nory's genuinely ENJOYED for extended periods of time.......and we've tried about four stroller varieties.  Or five.  Or six.  But, who's counting?!  The good news is that THIS LITTLE TRIKE works for her and it will eventually transform into an independent trike when she's ready for it.  THIS LITTLE TRIKE might even be the reason behind last night's hissy fit.  Something to do with trike time ending and bath time starting.  A battle of favourite activities was in full swing.  As we say here, what to do?

Tonight we've enjoyed some good ole greasy appetizers (served on Canada plates and with Canada napkins, of courrse!) while cheering on Team Canada in men's curling and men's hockey.  We are thrilled with the curling results (understatement of 2014), but I'm not quite sure our eyes will stay awake for period three of the hockey game.  It's a little late for us old folk, you know ;)

On that note.......GO CANADA and GOODNIGHT!  Going to bed early proved lucky in last night's big game.......
