Holi Festivities

I have so much I want to blog about- it's hard to decide what next. Since the Holi Festivals is right around the corner, I thought I would pay a tribute to it. Last year was so much fun. Ashlee, Shannon, Matt, and I rode down to the Hindu Temple in Spanish Fork- and it was one windy ride in the back of that convertible(compliments of Ashlee's sister), but oh were we lookin' good! Darn, wish I had a picture of that. Here are the pictures I do have anyway...


whoops, sorry shannon's head.


I didn't know we were trying to be so weird. I'll know for next time.



Fun times! For those of you who don't know what the heck we are doing- well, we all got bags of colored powder and met up on the hill behind(or maybe it was the front) of the Hindu temple. They sang and danced and when the time was right we all threw our colors in the air making a big cloud of colorfulness!! People, do NOT breathe this stuff in if you can at all help it. Try practicing holding your breath for at least three minutes before you come. Seriously, you will be spitting this stuff up for days.

What's the meaning behind all this you ask?? I have no idea. All I know is it comes once a year and it's awesome. Thanks Shannon, for instilling a new tradition! See you all Saturday! :)

Can't wait!!
