assalam alaikum, O, Ramadaan!

"assalam alaikum, O, Ramadaan!"-my mother in law's mother in law would greet the beginning of Ramadaan with these words and bow three times as to show the respect for this month. :). May be she thought Ramadaan was person like Umm Omar's Omar? ;)?
I hope everybody is happy and pleased with their time spent in Ramadaan. May Allaah accept all the duas that the Muslim Ummah is making in this blessed month!
It was very nice to see mom and dad! We also managed to visit some of our close relatives and drive to Andijan to see my in laws. All were happy to see us but very sad about us leaving so soon. AbdulAziz was also happy to see his grandparents and spent most of his time in our house yard running around and through the vegetable garden and splashing water all over himself and others! He was fascinated to see the grapes hanging from tall grape ladders.


His beloved grandfather climbed the ladders and picked the best grapes specially for him!


Today we had my husbands friends/brothers for Iftar dinner and tommorow, inshaAllaah, is for sisters. I took some pictures of food I made, inshaAllaah I'll put them in my future posts.
Have a beautiful Ramadaan!

Assalamu alaikum,


Belated Ramadan Mubarak sister. I've been reading your blog, even tho I never commented. Oh my...photos of the uzum is making me drool, I guess I shouldn't have looked at them since I'm fasting :))

Pancake- Ramadan Mubarak to you too! Thank you for commenting and welcome to my blog. I'm getting more and more comments now from new followers and you can't imagine how pleasant is that. I wonder what nationality you are, since you are calling grapes uzum like in Uzbek language. And your name-Pancake- is soo sweet and cute :), mashaAllaah!
Umm Ubayd-alhamdulillah, Ramadan is going well, it will be over in few days though. The time went by so fast this Ramadan. It seems like just yesterday we started fasting and now it will be over very soon. Thank you for comments, sis!
