Holi Hei!

Yes, it is Holi today - the Festival of Colors!

There definitely is a lot of religious significance to this festival - but being completely ignorant of all that, we were just out to get covered in dyes.

We'd been warned that in some places Holi color throwing celebrations can get a little bit rowdy, so we arranged with the kids in our building to play with them in our gated parking lot. Here are the before shots:

You're smiling now...

Sneak Attack!

Buckets, cups, squirt-guns, use whatever you can to get spread the color!

Allen, Jaquline and I had a blast with these kids!
"Uncle we'll get you!"
"Oh no, Auntie's playing too!"

Here's how we ended up



I'm pretty sure I'll be magenta for weeks!
