Our 2nd Wedding
Yesterday, Meme, Marc, Annada and I went to a friend’s home for couscous. Couscous is the traditional meal every Friday afternoon (Friday is the holy day). It was amazing! We had so much fun laughing together, learning to eat with our hands and, of course, drinking mint tea.
After lunch was over, Sana invited me to wear her wedding dress. I had been admiring the dresses when we had been shopping together. She offered to dress me up so we could take pictures.
It quickly went from dress up to a mini-wedding!

Our friends acted out different parts of a wedding with Marc and I. There was a lot of singing and calls.
We cut the cake, fed the cake to each other, put on rings and even had our “first kiss.”
Annada wanted to be a part of the wedding so we dressed her up in a caftan they gave us as a gift. She calls it her princess dress.
I am growing to really love these people.
They also sang Meme happy birthday.
And then on the way home we fit 9 people in the car. It quickly turned into a dance a party.
Awesome pictures – thanks so much for sharing! Love – Pepe
