Eid Mubarak

Today is Eid, a festival marking last day of Ramadan. Zamzam, who watches Van and Esther, took the morning to celebrate with the local community. I felt very fancy knowing about it ahead of time as I was able to wish my Muslim co-worker 'Eid Mubarak' a common Arabic greeting meaning 'blessed Eid'. Ok I got it from Wikipedia, but still, I felt good bringing someone who is far from home, a little bit of home. Mom and dad watched Van and Esther this morning while Zamzam took her family to the breakfast celebration.

Here are some pictures of Van at grandma's house and Zamzam all dressed up coming to pick him and Esther up after her breakfast.

In front of Svea's new house!

Zamzam and the family

Zamzam, hard to see her tummy here but she's 29 weeks, expecting a baby girl.  :)
