We have spent many weekends visiting DC museums, and the Renwick is one of our favorite spots.

We love trying new restaurants. We snapped this selfie because we were both having a great hair day.

This photo was taken after dinner where our parents first met.

This photo was taken after dinner at the Wharf celebrating the successful end of a busy month at work and school. It was also taken about a week before the surprise proposal.

The proposal was a day of surprises. We met at the Botanical Gardens downtown (one of many favorite date spots), and went on a city adventure.

Our city adventures led us to Crumbs and Whiskers, where we were greeted with "JanamJanam" playing overhead and Shazia and Shahzad being absolute sweethearts.

Lamiya: "He finally proposed and I said yes!"
Colin: "She said yes before I finished asking, out of excitement to be engaged, or maybe to pet the kittens."

Officially engaged and grinning ear to ear. We took many photos and pet many kittens.

Our Dua to Allah (swt):
Thank you, Lord, for creating us in pairs. Please protect us and our loved ones: soften our hearts, forgive our sins, shield us from harm, and reunite us in Jannah.
