BFF in India!

No, these are not professional models.
While it may be hard to believe, these are just pictures of us with some of our best friends in the whole world. We had the blessing of spending a few days with them (the middle two in both pictures are Nathan and Kari, the two on the right side in the pictures are Ryan and Kristin)--in India. What an amazing gift from our gracious Father--He sent not only one pair of our best friends here but two! Needless to say we were overwhelmed with thankfulness at the opportunity to spend some time with
them. We, Ryan and Kristin travelled by van and train to meet the Nathan and Kari just as they were arriving from the States.








When we arrived at the airport, we were met with this friendly little fracas. No, it wasn't a welcoming party for Nathan and Kari. It was a combination of the celebration of Holi (a "fun" Hindu holiday that involves people throwing paint on one another and on total strangers) and the arrival of several politicians. We managed to find the two white people in the crowd and then hurried back to our hotel lest we become multicolored as well.
