South Asia Meets North Arlington

My sister, Miranda, just got back from what sounds like an absolutely amazing/once in a lifetime trip to India (complete with a MAJOR trek through the Himalayas).

While we haven't gotten the full download, we did get some goodies. Miranda was sweet enough to think of the girls and pick up little Indian frocks for them at a market in ______. Shoot, I forgot to get that critical detail.

I promise to fill in the blank after we get the full scoop (and see the pictures, of which I hope there are many!!). In the meantime, I was able to capture a few shots of the girls in their new attire. Post-bath. Pre-bed. But barely. Anna was so tired tonight she definitely wasn't going to stand still and pose for a picture. To the contrary. She made a game of running from the camera.

(pants are from the far off land of Nordstrom's...although they do go quite nicely)

Between the curd and curry, kids in India aren't exactly the same size as my girls. Almost 16 month old Anna's dress is sized for a 3 year old. Four year old Lily's (oops, four and three-quarters year old...as of today!) tunic is meant for a 7 year old.

THANKS MIRANDA!
