Jai Ho

Saturday was a fantastic day!

First, the girls from Christine's church community group met up for a pedicure party to celebrate Stephanie's birthday. Such a great way to start any day really...

Then we both discovered the fantastic Crooked Tree Coffee House when we met up with a young couple who we are counseling (since we volunteer at our church together as pre-married counselors). We think they are a great match and they gave us a bunch of great ideas for our own marriage, so truly it was a win for everyone.

Last but NOT least - we saw AR Rahman's Jai Ho concert at American Airlines. Rahman did the Slumdog Millionaire soundtrack and as an Indian film composer, record producer, musician and singer, he is famous for so many things. The show was truly amazing - Christine thinks it was the best concert she's ever seen! The dancing and costumes and scenery and music all made for an unforgettable night! We felt like the only 2 Caucasians in a sea of 12,000 Indians. Christine loved it because she "felt like she was home". Plus she got to wear her Indian clothes again, which always makes her happy due to all her good memories from living in India last Fall.
