Beach Weekend ;) (Road Trip #4)

This weekend we went on a relaxing trip to the beach. We're traveling sooo much, so it was nice to be able to just sit and relax. We went to St. George Island. It's an awesome island that's only about 2 hours from Tallahassee. My mom's boss had a wedding there on Saturday, so we all went and spend the weekend there at a friend's beach house ;)
In the pic below you can see one of Aashini's top teeth. Her 4th tooth came in this weekend!
The moon was really cool and a little orange while we were there - it was cool :) People also didn't have lights on on the outside of their beach houses so that the sea turtles wouldn't be confused, so it was really dark and you could see a lot of stars!
Aashini had a lot of fun :)
It was a little chilly at the beach, but still Aashini went in the water a few times - she loved it... until she got cold :)
On Saturday, Aashini fell asleep on the beach :) It was cute :)
Here she is making her "fish face"
It was a little cold when I took this picture (below) and she was afraid we were going to put her in the water or something, so she wasn't happy unless Adam was holding her ;)

It was a great, relaxing weekend :)

Looks like fun! We went on a roadtrip this weekend too... how does Aashini do in the carseat?

Isaac's 3rd tooth finally peeked out from his very red and swollen gums...I wish I had been at the beach instead of a car when it happened! HA!

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...

Starbucks!

 Starbucks opened in our city last night!!  I'm not a huge coffee drinker... but I was excited about the opening!!  (I think I like Starbucks because of all the green! haha!... Aashini and Diya think the mermaid on the logo looks like me... haha! Maybe it's the weird wavy hair :)... not sure :) ) Anyway, we got there and the line was SUPER long!  The wait time was about 45 minutes!!!  There were so many people there!!!  I tried to get a pic of all the people... (that's why this picture is at an annoying angle... I was trying to get it all in in between the columns :))    Here's Aashini doing a jumping picture!!  The girls tried to do a jumping picture :) haha!  haha!  They had a few spills along the way :)  I never got them both jumping :)  Stuff for sale....  OK, one more because I think they are cute :) haha!  People waiting in line :) Some friends that made it insid...
