Mosaic Gala

Mary Lou (mother-in-law), Jamie, Mona (sister-in-law), me
These are some of the amazing woman that sat at our table. They were attorneys from Arab countries living in the US for 6 months with a program called AMIDEAST.

This week Jamie and I went to Washington DC to help my sister-in-law, Mona, with a gala honoring inspiring woman. Mona works for the Mosaic Foundation. Mosaic Foundation is an organization dedicated to improving the lives of women and children, and increasing understanding about the people of the Arab world. There was nearly 800 people there including Ambassadors, Royal Families, Secretaries of the US government and many other inspiring people.

Brit you look absolutely beautiful in all the pictures. And might I say you really know how to rock a little black dress!

Looks like you all had a blast. How fun to be with Mary Lou, your sister and sister-in-law. Seems like a great cause!
