Engaged

Here are some promised pictures from last week. You know, when we went away for 5 days, 4 days driving, 1 day there. We went for Anoop's (He's the guy in the 2nd picture scratching his ear) dad's 50th b-day and the engagement of our co-worker, Steve. There's a whole ceremony involved. Gift giving. Rings are actually exchanged at this time. The whole Mary & Joseph thing with the not being married yet, but still he thinks to "divorce her," etc. etc. just becomes so much more clear when you live in Indian culture.

So here they are, the happy couple. They'll be married in May. Hot season, I'm already dreading it. (The heat - not the wedding.)

This is a nice shot. O. and I were actually standing up for Steve's side of the family so I couldn't get many pictures, but I did slip away to get these two.
Her family is standing behing her. Mom, dad, brother & sister-in-law.
