Family Fun!

What a fun-filled weekend we had!

Omid had family visiting from Bellevue, California & Arizona. Aunts & cousins assembling the koobideh.

Dinner! Amazing jujeh kebab, kebab barg & koobideh.

Can you guess why there is dancing in this photo? It was announced last night that my sister-in-law just got engaged!! Everyone was celebrating!

Congratulations Arezoujoon (& Evan, too)!!!

This afternoon, Omid took us all to Crown Point.


Beautiful ladies, beautiful view.

After Crown Point, we headed to Multnomah Falls.

Fariba, Jaleh & Susan

Fun fact: Faribajoon also has a daughter named Nasim. Omid & I really liked that name and filed it away for future reference. You now know it was our number one pick! We did change the spelling so Nas wouldn't have to spend her entire life correcting people. Most Americans pronounce the 'i' like in igloo. Omid deals with it all the time. Oh-mid.

We ended our Gorge tour at Skamania Lodge.

Coffee at the fire pit.

Dear Susanjoon & Faribajoon:

Thank you so much for your kindness and friendship this weekend. It means a lot to me and I appreciate both of you so very much!!

The weekend in a nutshell: Fun, delicious food, & lots of love.
