Ali's Birthday 2012

What an amazing month July is as it welcomes many of us into this world. I am thankful for the health and presence of the dear family members in our lives born in this month. Arya is almost a July baby so I think he counts too :)

For Ali's birthday we had a party the day before with the family and then celebrated his day the day after. The birthday boy turns 44 this year :)

We had khoresh Gormeh Sabzi that I made along with khoresh Geymeh.

Forgot to take a picture of it but it turned out good. Nobody complained :)

Later followed by a chocolate/chocolate mousse cake from Whole Foods. It was yummy! :)

Papa's 76th Birthday

Papa had his birthday today. It was nice to see him smiling and looking so handsome. We came a bit early and Nana was making Lamb kabobs. Yummy. They cooked together and gave us such a delicious dinner.



The kids played as usual and we talked a bit. Though it was short, it was sweet.
Here are some more pics of us on this day.







Arya got tired very early and we had to drag him home. My dear son, I hope you don't end up becoming a zombie like me. :)

This is the last picture of us with the yummy coffee birthday cake & ice cream.

Arya turns 4

Our dear Arya turned 4 June 29th.



He began the day with a couple gifts from us and then we went out for a day of activities. He played at Wacky Tacky (where there were bouncers and slides, balls and tunnels). Then we went to a surprise place that had all types of superhero and comic characters he liked. He was so excited to get home and play with his new toys.



After lunch and a very long time of play, he crashed really, really late as we promised him no curfew for his birthday.

The next day we went to ChuckeCheese for more fun. This was his cake.




Some pictures of the party. Everyone was scattered. It was a bit loud and crazy but I think the kids had a good time.

















God keep you healthy and safe my son. Tavalodet mobarak basheh azizam.
