Happy Holidays


Greetings everyone,

It has been a busy and exciting year for the Zeki Family. With lots of traveling, spending time with family and the like, we have had our share of fun times. We are gearing up for a fabulous Holiday Season with travels up to the great Pacific Northwest. Here are a few pictures from the latter half of 2009.

Summer Livin'







Hello All,

It has been a long while since we have sent an update on our family. We have had an amazing summer thus far, spending our time with family and friends.

I, Danielle, have been off work for the summer since June 4th and loving every minute of it! Laith and I have been spending our time going on walks to the many parks in Rocklin with friends and going to the pool. Laith has become quite the little swimmer, and what fun it is too see him grow and have this time to spend with him.

Ahmad has taken on a new work-at-home job with Metlife Ins. which he seems to be enjoying. I know I enjoy having him around more :)
We have taken a family trips this summer. The first to Vancouver, Wa to celebrate my 30th birthday....yes, I did say 30. I feel great being 30 and had fun celebrating with some friends and family in Portland.
The second trip was a road trip Ahmad, Laith and I made to the Redwood forest, Santa Cruz, and Capitola. We had an absolutely amazing time. The redwoods were beautiful, the beaches were fun and it was all in all a nice get away from the Sacramento heat.

We have a few more trips planned to the NW before Summers end. Ahmad's band Listener Discretion will be putting on a show in Seattle Aug. 22nd. The final trip will be for the Annual Dave Matthews concert in the Gorge, Wa.

We are now expecting Tricia, Makayla, Ellie and Mitchel tomorrow. They are coming to visit us for the weekend. It's going to be great to see all the kids together again. I am sure there will be lots of swimming, cooking, eating, and walks to the park.......

Until next time!

Grandma and the girls visit...

This last weekend Grandma (Mom) Glenz, Aunt Tricia, Makayla and Ellie braved the lond drive from Vancouver, Wa to come hang out with us for the weekend. We are so happy they came to visit, but a little worried about their stormy drive home. (Tricia is driving the girls back by herself so Grandma can hang out for the week.)
We had lots of fun together going to John's Incredible Pizza, watching movies, going on short walks to the store, and laughing!! We miss them already and are looking forward to the next time we get to see them again.
Tricia and the girls still have about 6 hours left on their stormy drive home.....I will keep you updated on their arrival home......

We went to San Francisco to meet our friends' Nicholas' and Teresa's new baby boy Joshua. Laith had fun traveling in the city and seeing all the new sights. We had another great meal in Sausalito and then stayed up WAY too late trying to play Rummy.....and trying get and keep babies asleep....Good times with great friends!!

Ahmad's 29th Birthday!!!




On January 17th, 2009, we celebrated Ahmad and Cory's birthday in San Francisco, Ca. Ahmad and Cory share the same birthday......(not the same year...ha ha ha). We started our night with a delicious dinner in a unique alley of restaurants, like one you would see in a movie!!! After dinner we met up with a few other friends from Sacramento and enjoyed a rare night out on the town......
