27 March 2016 - A Hindu Easter

This weekend we went to the Holi Festival at the Sri Sri Radha Krishna Temple in Spanish Fork. We got there early on Saturday when people were still starting to arrive. Here are the girls in front of the temple, chalk-free.

We don't know these people, but this action shot of face-full of orange chalk pretty much epitomizes what happens if you go to this festival.

This is a view looking back down the hillside from the steps of the temple. They had a large sound stage set up for bands to play music. They had a few people come out and lead mass yoga sessions too.

Jessica got a mouthful of purple chalk at one point. We laughed.

All the girls got henna tattoos. It was very sunny, but still very cold.

On Saturday night, after a shower and the General Conference Women's Meeting, we got together with Jennifer's family for a little egg coloring.

Here are Jessica and Emily working their craft.
