Pink Saturday!

We live in San Francisco and it was just the big Pride celebration weekend, but this post isn't about THAT Pink Saturday. It's about my sister-in-law's engagement party.

Last Saturday Franco's family hosted an engagement party for his sister and her future in-laws. The usual Afghan party traditions were turned up a notch as this was an all-out affair. Fancier than the Afghan weddings I've attended, walking in the room transported you to a pink-themed fantasy land. It was a beautiful way to start a marriage. So, congratulations Barine and Habib! We wish you happiness (and can't imagine what's in store for the wedding :) ).
