1 Hello!!! We are for sure going to the orphanage tomorrow!!!! It will be fun! I hope........
But I am not looking forward to to the drive): our driver drives really fast, the roads are so bumpy, AND his car is new so you get carsick after about 15 or 20 minutes......... But then it s should be fun.

2 We are probably coming back to visit in late May or early June! Do any if you want to come? I'm serious....... We would love to have someone come!!!!! We are probably takings a friend home and our Grandma is coming!! So if anyone wants to come.......

3 Theo is playing with his ball right now and it keeps slipping under the coffee-table... Actually he keeps PUSHING it under the coffee-table... On PURPOSE!!! he's a stinker.

4 Grandma Linda sent us care packages to open every month!!!! We opened two on Monday and now we have a hole bucket of candy about 5 inches high and 10 inches wide!!!!!!! It's fun !! Thank you very much Grandma!!!
Talk to you soon!!

Hello!!!!

I'm not sure what to write about although you would think that I would have everything in the world to talk about, i probably do have alot to say and i just cant think of it, so here are a few pictures to keep you entertained well i think about what to tell you all!!!

                                                                 SUGAR CANE, LOVE IT

Hello again

I think i found something to talk to you about!!! On Saturday my Dad went to a Muslim market to buy fruit and vegetables! He also went to a fish and mutton market to just look around and experience India! At the mutton market he saw people skinning the animals, he saw live animals, lots and lots of already skinned animals hanging all around and their was no refrigerators so everything was exposed, and outside of the building their were little rivers of blood flowing down the sides. It's really sad and gross. Oh you see how the guy driving is Caucasian, that's Rene!!!!!! He drove us to Dario's in Sunday. ( Dario's is a really fun all vegetarian Italian restaurant that we go to almost ever Sunday or Saturday. It's really good.)

That's all that I have to say today!!
Talk soon

India Again

Hello!!!

  Did you know that another reason we quit the school is that since we are Americans they would give us lower than we really got): Just because we are Americans.  (It's really annoying.)  We are almost FOR SURE going to Austria for Christmas now!!!  Here are a few pics!!!!

Hello everyone!!!

How are all of you Guys doing back in the USA?

We are all doing fine here and are having lots of fun!!!

For Christmas we our most likely going to Austria to a ski resort!!!

And here in Pune at the Hyatt (it's a hotel) they are going to have an all Thanksgiving dinner!

With turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, cranberry sauce, and a bunch of other of stuff.  We and some of our friends are going to go!!! It will be fun!!!  What are you all doing for the holidays?

Here are a few pics of us, Elsie, and Elena. By the way, the picture of us walking through the fence is a hole in the wall that leads to a few shops and fruit stands.It is known as the HOLE IN THE WALL!!

 

                      This is us at our swimming pool.( There is a rat that leaves underneath the boards.)

                                                                   THE HOLE IN THE WALL 

                                                   Elena                           Elsie

                                                              Us playing with the puppies

 This is a poem i wrote about the baby puppies!!!

Puppies, puppies everywhere

Rolling, tumbling without a care

Drinking their milk, not wanting to share                                       

Whining, barking, being nosed with care                                         

Wanting to know whats out in the world                               

But being told to not go out if we dared

Why couldn’t we go out In the world

But we could only stay the hole that we shared

Other dogs passing all around our den

Once there was even a red golden hen

To Be Continued/When We Come Out Of Our Den

Some More Of India

Hello everyone! How are you all doing? This morning we went to see the puppies and the mommy dog attacked Elsie and Elena):):): Its sad that they have to be so aggressive. Maybe the mommy dog won't be so aggressive once the babies get bigger! The little babies getting bigger and bigger every time we see them! We are going back out to see them later this afternoon so i will try to get some pictures if i can!


Have any of you ever read: SEVEN SONS AND SEVEN DAUGHTERS? If you haven't you should its really good!!! Or have you read : SHADOW SPINNER? That's also very good!!


Outside our hotel are some kids that come to work with their mom everyday to clean the sidewalks in front of are hotel.(Their dad works at the hotel.)Their names are Bunker and I don't know. (No her name is not I Don't Know, I don't remember her name, i will tell it to you as soon as i remember.)

Keep You Posted
