Party Week

Friday Brian's company had a huge celebration to mark the milestone of 150,000 customers in 1060 days (a little under 3 yrs). I've mentioned before that they are growing like crazy and Mr. Ghosh, the founder and president wanted to have a day of fun for the employees, customers and their children. We went in the morning and stayed til around 1:00 when I took the boys home for a nap. (The event was 9 hours) We came back to see the last of the party and pick up Brian. Most of the activity was dancing, singing, and skits performed by the employees and customers who had practiced for 2 months! We didn't understand most of it because we don't speak the local languages. But we could tell everyone around us was having fun:) When I came back with the boys they were ending with a concert and most of the crowd was jumping up and down like a mosh pit:) Brian said most of his employees had never been to a live concert and came to tell him that this was the best thing they had ever been to. I'm not sure that they were able to get much work done today after such a great party:) I'm including pics of some of the cultural dancers and a video of the concert (see video above). I missed getting the best part...a girl, dressed like a man (Elvis?), lipsinking in a silver sequined jacket!:D

Yesterday the boys and I went to a friend's birthday party at Pizza Hut (kinda like we used to have parties at McDonald's in the states--maybe they still do?:). We had a great time and I included a short video of musical chairs (see video above) to take everyone back to their childhood party days:)

Last night Brian and I got to go on our 2nd date in a year!!! Thanks to our dear friends who are trading kids with us:) They were in the last post's pictures (minus Isaac the dad).
