America - Fun Friends

We got to see a lot of fun friends while we were in America! I got pictures with only a few of them (need to do better with that next time!) :) but thought I would post some of them :)
This is my friend Priya :) She's from South Asia so it's always fun to see her when we come into Tally :)
The girls had fun fun playing together... this picture makes me laugh because Diya looks sooooo huge!We had a super-fun intern reunion! (more pictures here on facebook). We always have so much fun :)
We have a bunch of kids between us all now! haha! :) This was our attempt at getting all the kids in the picture :) There are 11 kids in this picture (You probably can't see little Levi... Aashini is holding him - she was so proud to get to hold the baby!!!!)
This is my friend Annie! I was so excited to get to see her and her fun family! This is a picture she took and I loved it, so I'm posting it too :)
Here are our kids (minus two) :)We got to see our friends Mike & Cari.... we have picture with them on their camera that I still want to get, but here are pics of our kids :) Fun!This is my awesome friend Erin! We met, hung out and worked together in South Asia while she was there and she's now in the US. We got to see each other when we were in Virginia - this picture cracks me up :)In Virginia Aashini had sooooo much fun! She got to go to a fun class for a week and make some super fun new friends! This is her fun friend Victory :)This is Victory's mom :) Susan is my fun new friend :)This is a fun friend from college :) I got to see Betsy when we were in Orlando :)In Orlando we also got to see our fun friends Ish & Beatriz :) We met Ish the first time in Thailand! Fun hunh?This is Rahul - Annie's husband :) We got to visit him at his work one day when we were in Tampa :) It was so fun to see him!I got to see one friend I haven't seen in a while! We've known each other and have been friends since Elementary School!! Our moms worked together for a while, and we used to live around the corner from each other. One summer we were on a bicycle trip together and had a big accident together (& shared a hospital room!). Here we were in middle school :)She teaches school in Georgia now and she was in town and we got to see each other! It was fun!! It was fun to see all of those fun friends (plus so many others that we didn't get pictures with!!!) It was awesome!!!

Funny Things 2 - American Fair Edition

We just got back from Roadtrip #8 in Macon, GA. It was an awesome trip!! So, before we head out on the next trip, we went to the North Florida Fair! The fair is always famous for it's fried foods... they fried everything!!... They had fried/breaded zucchini, Mushrooms, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Onions, green tomatoes, okra, pickles, etc :) I had a lot of it too - YUM! Now, I'd heard of fried Snickers & twinkies (which they had) but they also had FRIED OREOS & PEANUTBUTTER CUPS :) The fair was cool. They had a shark show and a sea lion show... but our favorite was the pig races :) haha!!! It was hilarious!! Aashini was close up to the race until the pigs came - then she crawled up into Adam's lap really fast :) (as seen below) :) Pig races! haha! Cracks me up!

Dusshera 2012

This year, our neighborhood was quite active for Dusshera.  At one end of our street, one of the major political parties here, set up a Dusshera celebration.   Here are some guys putting the effigies together and filling it full of fireworks! They had quite the political statement for their celebration.  (Basically that expensive water, fuel, electricity, diesel, gas, etc and FDI (bringing in foreign companies like Wal-Mart) are like Raverna (the demon god)... and are the evils of today....)  Here's their set-up at the end of our street.... you can't see it very well, but they had all three effigies there that they burned....  They burned VERY quickly at this one... So quickly that by the time I pulled out my camera, it was already on the ground!!  Our street looked like those CNN videos of rioting cities :) haha!!  There was burning stuff all over the street :)  Many people will get a piece of the leftover wood/bamboo...

In Thailand!

We flew to Bangkok, Thailand today! The flight went well :) Aashini cried a little, but did awesome! We got the bulkhead seat and they even had an extra seat next to us! Aashini really only set in it for a pic or two, but it was fun anyway :) You can see the Buddhist monk in red behind Aashini. The guy that set next to us was a Monk also, he was actually the translator for the Dalai Lama ! Cool hunh? It was funny because he was typing on his laptop the whole flight (and Aashini was grabbing at his robe - haha!) This picture below cracked me up so I had to post it :) When we got here we had to go get a few things at the grocery store :) Aashini went to her first grocery store in the Middle East, but this was her first time getting to ride in a cart!!! She LOVED it!! She was swining her legs, babbling up a storm and looking at everything! Thai people LOVE babies!!! She got a lot of attention today! I have a feeling she's going to get a lot of attention the next coupl...
