mahala and quinn got to dress up today for a big party we had here for my uncles and aunts and their families. we also celebrated my dad's 70th birthday. from an outline put together by seens and i, douglas wrote a wonderful script for our skit about my dad's life-it was amusing mostly because mahala and quinn acted out parts of the skit. (noble unfortunately had to back out because he had a fever). we are not so sure the that our humor translated, but it seemed like everyone enjoyed themselves.
douglas was decked out in a jubha and munda. i also had the chance to finally wear my wedding sari...almost 8 years later. needless to say, i needed to let it out a bit! but according to many relatives, i have "gained weight and look much better" - honestly, this has been said to me more often than anything. indians consider it as a compliment. americans consider it the time to call jenny craig.
yesterday we went shopping and scored at a great new store called
"fabindia". all i can say is that cochin needed a hip place like this! noble and mahala were treated to many new outfits on behalf of ammamma and appappan. douglas could not come with us so we are going to take him next week and hopefully get him to look like the next model for indian gq.
