Minnesota goodness

Well, we're back from Minnesota and we had a great time! It was wonderful seeing Bishnu's family and getting to spend some much needed time with them. They absolutely adored Jonah and all of his cars but he was still a little too shy to go give them hugs or lovies...maybe on the next visit. I really wish we could have stayed longer and that I knew more Nepali. Guess I'll have to break out my Nepali cd and book and get to practicing. And now I want to go to Nepal even more! Oh well...in time, I guess. Here are a couple of shots from Friday:

Aama, Papa, Bishnu, Me and Jonah

Some more of the beautiful flowers we saw

Roopa and Bishnu

That's only a few of what we took but I don't want to bombard you too much yet. I'm still trying to get the hang of this thing and I'll be adding more pictures in as soon as I get my other links figured out.

We're kind of at a standstill right now on decorating the house - our stove will be arriving on Thursday and we really can't do anything else until Bishnu and I both get paid. At least I'll be able to bake goodies soon. I'm still trying to convince Bishnu that a Kitchenaid Mixer is absolutely in the budget for the kitchen. He, however, begs to differ seeing as how we had to spend our stimulous check on kitchen appliances and have next to nil left over. And, of course, when he brings up that little nugget of information, I have to agree. My little hand-mixer will do just fine and mixes everything just the same. I just want one of those pretties! Preferably a yellow or white one...I know. I am shameless.

vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv vv <----- this is Jonah's contribution to my post. Y'all should feel honored...He tore himself away from his Cars movies, no small feat by any means, to come see what I was doing and felt the need to push a few buttons.

And on that note, I'll go. Ta ta for now!
