randomness yet again :)

blog has returned from holiday, slightly refreshed :)

just to clarify, blog being on holiday was simply a reflection of my laziness to post anything, not of any holiday-taking by me and patrik! ;)

here are some random shots from the last few... days?

weeks?

months?

oh dear.

(mostly in chronological order... teehee!)

three generations

when mamita and mormor were here for the wedding, mormor was so proud to say to everyone we met "look! three generations!"... and funnily enough, we weren't the only ones :D my sweet office-mate sherri also had her mom and grandma visiting, so we took a three generations shot at the bahji visitor's centre on the 1st day of ridvan ~*~

9th day of Ridvan

with carole and matthew just a few days before na'im was born... going to see them tonight after staying away for more than a week cuz of a nasty cold that had me home sick forever...

marriage class

patrik and i are in a weekly class with other young newly-weds that discusses marriage from a baha'i perspective... we went out to dinner one night with all of them... here's arjang (persian from australia) and tazien (persian from india) sitting across from eachother, francis (philippines) and nica (persian from canada) on the left followed by shadman (persian from australia) and radostina (bulgaria)... on the right are us and leila (persian/new zealander) and shaun (u.s.)... great fun :D

el equipo eleanor

sherri, joanna and i all assist the same secretary-aide... when we're not laughing and joking around... jejeje... missing from the photos is bita, who's here for a few months to help out while replacements for sherri and me are found... these were taken at the declaration of the Bab celebration, my last holy day here in haifa (*sigh*)

also that night, managed to get a shot with yas, and shastri, quien se colo a la foto to add some ethnic flair... jejeje

faranak, gilberto and sofia were just here on pilgrimage, which was so much fun (i mean, spiritual...) and coming soon are the stern-sapads from albuquerque and then andrew and anamargarita!!! more fun to be had! hopefully faranak will post some photos on her blog (she took lots, i took none, as usual!) we did lots of stuff... zoo, beach, movies... like i said, a very spiritual time :)
