Holi

Last month Josh took the kids to a Holi festival. Holi is a Hindu holiday celebrating the coming of spring. It is often referred to as "the Festival of Colors."

 Josh was invited through a work friend and the invitation warned to bring old clothes and be ready to get painted! When they got to the house they were welcome with a hug and a smear of what can best be described as powder paint. Haley LOVED it and ran straight to the yard where kids were running around. Ryan...skeptical. He did not like the greeting and stayed a bit hesitant of the free for all.

As you can see, he warmed up and enjoyed himself. They all did! I love that we live in a place where we can all be exposed to so many cultures and traditions. I feel sorry for people who reside in places that don't have the same luxury.
Happy Holi (belated)!
