Engagement

We're engaged!


Right after the most perfect engagement at Haines Point.

A private celebration at home.

Last night, Sohail's parents organized a dinner for some family that was visiting from Canada and then surprised the family with the good news via a cake after dinner.

Everyone was so excited - clapping and kissing us.

With the parents / future parents-in-law

With my new Persian family!

Dancing to celebrate.

Thanks Shirin! Though you're probably somewhat biased in their favor, they really are a wonderful family.
