Easter

Yesterday was a lot of fun!
Alison and I had bought almost 400 peices of little candies for the girls. Mango bites, caramel/ choclate chews chews, and a milky hard candy. We called all the girls together, which wasn't hard for once since it was a holiday and they were all watching TV. We told them we had a suprise but we had to set up first, so everyone had to stay in the TV room, and no peeking! We went around and hid the candy in all of their study rooms and outside in bushes and trees and flower pots, any where! When we were done we went back into the room and explained that in the U.S. for Easter we have a tradition of Easter Egg Hunts, so that we hid candy everywhere and they had to go find it... they were pretty excited about that!! They colleced most of the candy, maybe only 20 pieces short or so (some may have been eaten) They brought the candy the found back to us and put in a bag, and then would continue their search. At the end of it we distributed all the candy so they all got the same amount, because of course the older girls where coming back with huge handfulls and the little ones would have 1 or 2 peices they found. The girls had a lot of fun searching around for the candy and of course eating after! Which Alison and I also enjoyed! haha. For Tiffen we all got huge peices of watermelon, yummm! and then the girls got the new Arkshay heart-throb movie "8x10" It was about this man who's father got killed, and he had a special stop watch that e would set for a minute at a time and be able to see through his father's eyes who really killed him. In the end the Man had a twoin brother that killed him... I'm pretty sure thats how the movie goes haha... its hard to pick up on things when its all in Hindi, the girls explained it pretty well to us though!
The girls kept saying what a lucky day it was and giving me hugs! :-) I'm glad we did something exciting and special for them for the holiday! It was a nice day!
