Wow the spots u took pics of looked so clean. I thought their would be lots of garbage or litter every where. It is always a wonderment at old everything is in the eastern hemisphere.

That's a trip you'll never forget :-) Since you are the queen of baby slings...you must tell me what ones you have and like because I want to get one for our little girl. And ps- thank you for the sweet comments about my Grandma's passing ;-) xoxoCindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01286426196402171816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23066758.post-77429598217187924022011-12-03T13:40:09.820-02:002011-12-03T13:40:09.820-02:00I'm crossing India off my list of places to vi...I'm crossing India off my list of places to visit. Anywhere with a high likelihood of contracting a severe gastrointestinal illness that can only be handled in filthy bathrooms is eliminated. Ugh. <br /><br />Cute pics, though.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10137880910015843613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23066758.post-14329469793067677742011-12-01T03:33:49.880-02:002011-12-01T03:33:49.880-02:00Megan, that was so us, too! For the longest time I...Megan, that was so us, too! For the longest time I've had India in my mind, all romantically, as a great place to live, even though logically I knew there was a lot of poverty, etc. too. But colors and music and dancing! And our week there really was not that. But I think it would be a bit different to actually live there, you know? You'd eventually adjust stomach-wise, you wouldn't always be going to touristy spots where everyone's trying to sell you chintzy souvenirs, you'd make Indian friends who would invite you to their weddings and celebrations, where there would be authentic music and dancing... and colors! ;) I've known and known of people who've lived there and loved it, but yeah, the 8 days we went just wasn't long enough to get into the good stuff, I guess. So don't give up the dream ;)<br /><br />And piano. As the branch pres was standing up welcoming everyone, a lady who'd said hi to us when we got there came sneaking over and asked if I could play. Prob just figured the chance was higher, since I was American! I was def. not awesome. I didn't even get to look at the music b4 I started playing, and it was mostly right-handed b/c I had never played the opening one before. The sacrament hymn was better! Overall it was fine, but then the missionary came and rocked it.

Bummer. I can't believe you ended up playing the piano in sacrament! How did they even know you played? Did they just ask the congregation? So random! I'm sure you did awseome, imagine who will play when the elder leaves? I'm sure everyone thought you were amazing. I always think of India like the movies. Bright colors everywhere and music and dancing! But the pictures made the whole place look kinda dingy. I did have a feeling that might be what it's REALLY like. But I just like to pretend it's all beautiful and bright.Megan and Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07920863346902764286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23066758.post-35441836111393532292011-12-01T01:10:40.943-02:002011-12-01T01:10:40.943-02:00That was very interesting indeed ... I am glad you...That was very interesting indeed ... I am glad you didn't get more ill... at least you recovered already. I guess you learn to try ignoring illness when you know you are s'posed to be having fun somewhee you've never been b4. The pics are great and the descriptions are material for LOL stuff ... sorry, sort of... I see Maeve holds on to Z's ears, so funny! The tatoos are really nice ... I guess they washed off... the poor cute little boy with his baby sibling rooting for milk ...how very sad, whatever the story. Look at all those adult men wanting to see/hold those little rascals! Thanks for sharing, and we look forward to the rest of the story...

I'm sorry that it didn't turn out as planned, that is lame, but the stuff you weren't too sick for looks really cool! It's really nice of you guys to let people take so many pictures with the kiddos. Maeve's hair is so long and gorgeous! Your hair looks so cute too, and of course I love all the pics of B & N (&Z) too.Tara https://www.blogger.com/profile/03578770491979388340noreply@blogger.com
