Visit with Friends

A couple weeks ago we had some friends come visit us from Saudi Arabia. Through the engineering program at Boise State we had a few Muslim friends from Saudi. Their government pays them to go to school in America for degrees like material science, engineering, architecture, and business. Since Tyler new a little Arabic from the classes he took in college, he was fast friends with the students from Saudi and we have managed to stay in contact with a few of them. One of them, Hussein, came to visit Bahrain for the Muslim holiday Eid, similar to Christmas for Christians, and we had dinner and hung out with him and his family for a while. Hussein was single when we knew him at BSU but is now married to Batul (who is just lovely) and has a very cute little boy named Ali.
