So I've finally confirmed that I'm going to a childhood friend's wedding all the way on Prince Edward Island! This is pretty much a dream come true. Zarrin - engaged friend - has two older sisters. Asiyih - middle sister - has been my bestest destest friend in the whole wide world since I was born (she was born 4 months prior). Asi and I also happened to get married exactly two weeks apart from each other last summer! She served as my Witness, and I was one of her bridesmaids! Asi and her family had ventured to PEI during our childhood and she brought me back some red sand in a bottle which previously contained raspberry cordial. And of course, that means nothing to you unless you were a fan of Ann of Green Gables. :)
I've longed to visit this beautiful place that Asi spoke of, and now I finally get the opportunity! I was nervous that I wouldn't be able to make it, and I'm sad that Kyle won't be able to tag along, but I'm super excited that I will be making the road trip with my family! There is going to be a lot of giggling and laughing and loud talking for those 24 hours on the road. Whew! Whenever you get us three girls together, it's a non-stop partayyy! And then we get to celebrate the beautiful union of Zarrin & Josh! I love them! And Asi & Niyaz will be back from China! I love them, too! It's going to be such an awesome week!
My mom said we will probably make it a week-long trip. The wedding festivities begin Thursday and end Saturday with a breakfast, so we'll spend some time exploring PEI, possibly visiting family in the Boston area (ahem: Bre, Jaleh, Dan) if they'll have us, and then we have to drop Amber off at Green Acre Baha'i School for a conference she'll be attending. Oh, and my cousin who lives in Ethiopia with his family - they have been attending a conference at the same time for the past several years so we're hoping to run into them at Green Acre as well!
What a fun week it's going to be!!!
