Dirty girl

We did not take any pants for the girls so we had to go buy some before we went digging, and the only ones we could find for Brianna were white. They actually came clean. She had a lot of fun.

finds

This is some of the pottery the girls found in their area. They also found a lot of animal bones.

Big Dig

This is an archaeological dig we went to close to Petra in the area of Wadi Moses. (There is a spring close by this area that the locals believe was one of the springs that Moses made with his staff. Its really not very big and I doubt it was.) They are digging at an Edomite site about the time of the kings. They are using brooms and dustpans for the most part so they can determine what is there. The girls wanted to use shovels, but our friends would not let them. They had a good time anyway.

monkey at the computer

Brianna and Megan have figures out how to use the computer and the digital camera. Me and Susan were having some quiet time and they were in out bedroom and Brianna took a pic of Megan while they were listening to music on the computer.
