Today was a holiday for the kids. Boy did we enjoy it! Since Little Man was sick yesterday we celebrated today. We threw in a little swimming too.






The water was just a tad cold. Can you tell by the look on her face?



She knows what is coming....cold water!

There she goes!


Little Lady is in more of the pictures because after only one jump into the pool Little Man cut his toe on the bricks. I had to take him up and bandage him up and told him he couldn't swim anymore. :(

Little Lady only lasted for a couple of jumps and then she decided the water wasn't quite warm enough.

After swimming we went to Chili's to get chips, salsa and dessert.


Oh NO, I didn't let my most well mannered child lick her plate in public! Nor did I lick my own plate that had chocolate and caramel all over it! Really, caramel and chocolate are not worth embarrassing my hubby over.


It was a wonderful day of time together!

Holi: Festival of Colors

There are many festivals here in India. We had fun with this one. It is called Holi. It is the celebration of Spring. People throw all sorts of colored powder on each other and then throw water to soak it in! It was actually very calm here in the South. I have heard in the North they go crazy. We had lots of fun with all the colors.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving from way up here on the east coast! We have so much to be thankful for, but I am most thankful for our Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave his life that mine would be saved! I pray you have that same thing to be thankful for.
