We Indians love celebrating :-)

This past weekend, Hari and I had a nice celebration with some of our close family. The occassion - Being preganant for the first time....

It has a religious part and a social part. The religious part of course is all in Hari's court. He prayed for himself, me and the baby to be; said the Gayatri Mantra dilligently a few 100s of times, and poured a lot of 'ghee' into the holy fire.

The social part was all me. I decked up and changed saris 4 times, got bangles loaded on to my wrists by all the aunts and cousins in the family and ate and drank as much and whenever I pleased.

Here are some fun pics from the lovely event. It all took place at Hari's parents place!
