Summary of My US. Diary:
September 23, 2006 was one of the most beautiful days of my life...
I am so proud to be a part of this special family, Wedding ceremony was marvelous, extremely fascinating, with everything that anyone could ask for, Just a PERFECT day! Can you believe it? I am a positive person, but it's hard these days to find a perfect day like that; my first experience of United States was extremely special in many ways, I could say...
Meeting my aunts and my cousins, my mom and brother, and the new members of our family all together was so memorable that it is hard for me now to wipe off my tears of happiness...Actually I do feel a bit homesick now that it's all over.
It started with me going to Montreal, passing by the security, and US. Customs, when the security thought I'm carrying a lipstick, but funny, it was just a brush for my makeup! A Modern Brush as he put it, and after telling him my story that I would be seeing my aunt for the first time after a 10 hour flight, he was kind enough and added that although it doesn't matter and I could bring my brush with me to the plane, I would be looking just as great without any makeup! So there we go with American cool security guard! After that I got in Denver, huge huge airport, at the heart of America, and finally to Boise Idaho, gosh I was happy, and my aunt and my brother found me right then! Really who else would look like me-My aunt's niece?
LOL
Anyways, she had a speech that day, international Piece Day, in front of Iranian and American community of the city, and I should add that I was so proud of her, and everybody told me how lucky I am to be her niece, and I watched her as she spoke, and how wonderful it was that I remembered my grandpa that night, and how good he was in politics, as her daughter is now!
The day after mom arrived, and then my other aunt, we had a huge party, I finally saw my cousin- the handsome groom, and everyone else, so much fun, just making food, decorating the rooms, and getting to know everyone...
and finally Saturday came, the wedding, we went early to church since we were the first family of groom, and the photographer took so many pictures of us before the wedding, and then it all begun, all the emotions, Arthur's piano playing, the priest, best man-who was Dariush, made of honor, all the bridesmaids, Oh gosh all the little special moments that I tried to get on the camera, and ofcourse everyone shed tears... And Love proved its power again! We were so amazed, happy, joyful, excited, emotional, and everything else you could imagine,,, then it was the reception and toast, and food, and cake and dancing and dancing and dancing......
and guess what they played all my fav. Songs, and specially The Sleeping Beauty one, "I know you, I danced with you once upon a dream..."
oh I forgot something, I got the bouquet, from all those girls, it just came off to my hands, and I didn't even try to catch it, so yeah, I had a special dance too that day! Well, afterall I'll be the next bride of the family!LOL!
Of course, today I got back to my home, and I'm typing this while my back hurts so much because of sitting on the plane, by the way Chicago airport was extremely beautiful, one of the kind...
God, I don't know what else to say, just how grateful I am for having this whole experience, this great special loving family, for everything that you gave to me, and you will be giving as always...I love you all!
and Don't laugh, cause it's just a summary
