Happy Birthday America
Fourth of July, Marjan's favorite Holliday. Usually everybody will come over our house, but this year, we were invited to Fafar's house for his son Danny's birthday. Amir and Julia had invited us to spend the day with them on their boat, but Marjan had promissed to go to Fafar's house.
I woke up about six thirty, hanged around the house a bit and went back to sleep. Amin woke me up about 10 O'clock, they do not see daddy at home at such hours so he wanted me up to play with him. Once down stairs Kiana joined us and my beautiful wife had already gotten me my coffee from Dunkin Donut.
Iwent out soon to the backyard, the weather was beautiful and the sun warm, and soon all four of us were swimming in the pool, Amin was a silly as ever, and Kiana showing off her latest moves, I swam, and enjoyed the cool water, we played for a while and then Marjan served us lunch, that woman does spoil all of us to our delight.
Cheeseburger with tomatoes and Scallions was the lunch, which I chewed slowly, while talking to my beauties and then I had a beer which settle me in my resting state further. I laid down for a short afternoon nap, and then took a shower, as Kiana had persisted we all were red white and blue, showing off our petriotism, and head down to Fafar's house.
Once there we were greeted by Clause, Fafar's husband, and the only German man that I know, he is always kind and hospitable, and soon I had another beer in my hand and was munching on appetisers. After the rest of the guests showed up we moved down outside to the pattio, and their garden in the back, sat at the table, Munched on more goodies and talked. the kids played in the yard, and at some point Ray, Mojgan's hasbund brought to our attention that how all the kids were wearing red, white and blue. we talked poloitcs as Ray and I always end up doing, but this time we were in agreement more than usuall. then was more laughter, jokes, and as the sun was leaving on the west we had dinner of stakes, Hot dogs hamburgers, and even some Iranian rice dish, then it was to cakes for the birthday boy and desert for adults, some coffee, and by ten O,clock we left Fafar's house.
Fafar and marjan have been friends since primary school, and they talk a few times a day usually, her sisters Mojgan, Shahrzad and their husbands all leave a few minutes from each other, and they have always invited us for Chrismass, new years eve, birthdays, and they have such a warm and lovely family that we enjoy their compony a lot.
I drove back my beqauties home and enjoyed the ride, while all three of them were sleeping and I was listening to my favorite Jazz station and in my head still thinking about Malcolm, Sophie and their adventures.
This mornign I could not wait to get to the Gym, and started my routine with one hour of eleptical machine, and forty five minutes of heavy lifting. Today I am on diet of plenty of water, fruits and dry cereal, trying to give my system a break and get back to my girlish figure. God Bless America, it has become a haven to my family and I and the best place to live on this earth. LIFE IS GOOD
