Wedding in DC!! June 21, 2009

We sure have been the jet-setters these past few months..This month we all flew into Washington DC to watch Lonnie's sister Kimberley get married to the man of her dreams Ibrahim. It was a wonderful wedding at the Islamic Center in DC. I had never been to a Muslim wedding before and I really liked it! The women could not have any skin showing except for their hands and face, so we had to wear scarves that Kim gave us. Also you had to take off your shoes before entering. All the men sat on one side and the women sat on the other. After the wedding we all went to Cafe Nema which it a cafe that Ibrahim owns in DC. (if you ever get to DC.. its a must place to eat!) Afterwards some of us walked with Kim and Ibrahim to a park to do a exchange of vows and rings. It was very nice. We then went back to Cafe Nema for drinks and dancing.. It was a wonderful time and at last the whole family was there!!! (it was the first time all the brothers and sisters were together!!)It was a wonderful time and we are so happy for Kimberley and Ibrahim!!
