Families and friends - want to remind you to use our Bahrain address when sending us those great letters and care packages! Kuwait only forwards the mail for 60 days after leaving and we're coming to a close on that. All packages after that day will be returned to the sender. We don't want to miss out on the love from home so please use our current address!!

Sending a Happy Mother's Day to all the Mother's out there! And to our Charlie's Angel's as they are our adopted Mothers while we are away. We couldn't do this without you! Thank you!!

Last night in Kuwait...
