Here are a few photos of her and some friends from school...
The photo on the right is of the Golu... the doll exhibition.
The dolls are displayed in the temples and in each Hindu's home during the Navratri.

Loving the dolls :-)
Such beautiful color! And who wouldn't want to have a 9 day celebration of femininity?! I think I'm going to some research on converting to Hinduism...

I'm with C - a 9-day celebration of wisdom, learning and femininity sounds just right to me.
How lucky your girls are to have the chance to learn first-hand about so many other cultures.
Shana Tova to you! It is the middle of a festival here too. But Saraswati only gets one day! Durga most of the rest - lots of sacrifices. REally nice.
You look like you've settled in well! Well done.
You are just submerged in strong traditions and I love the way you embrace them. Your girls are going to grow up with such a beautiful view of the world.
So beautiful. What fun for your girls to have so many enriching experiences. Hope things are going well for you too.
how exciting for your daughter to get to experience all these great things... just FANTASTIC!
It's been so fun to read about India from your perspective. And to see how you embrace letting the girls experience the culture and traditions. What an exciting life they are living.
a nine-day long festival celebrating the power of femininity...
Wow. What a very cool festival to partake in. I might just make up one on our own. 9 days of empowerment. Cool!
Great pics.
So cute. Your kids are so lucky to be raised in multi-cultural environments. And you look like your in good hands with that driver!!

Wonderful. I love reading about posts from places I don't know a lot about. I have to say, I absolutely love the traditional dress of India. It's so pretty and graceful looking.
She is just so beautiful!!!
I love the photos. They are all so beautiful.
what a beautiful holiday! I love all the dolls and dresses.
The Hindu religion is so fascinating. Is it Lakshmi that is the many armed goddess? Or maybe it's Kali? Or both. Anyway...I always think that we as moms have to juggle so much - that I just love that representation.
That is one adorable girl you've got there. A holiday that celebrates femininity absolutely must involve dressing up and lots of dolls and flowers!
Their outfits are adorable :) (Looks dry thee....)
Is it just me, or would it be really fun to have dress-up day in a sari? I think they are so beautiful!
I love Sheridan's outfit! The colors are beautiful. Looks like she is loving it too.
That is sweet!
I love this festival celebrating the power of femininity!!
Your girls are so full of culture. Your girls will be our ambassadors someday!
OMG... I LOVE IT! She looks so stinken cute....
Did you have this outfit already or were you freaking out the night before looking for the nearest Indian store to buy it? (LIke I would have been...)
I have not stopped by your blog in about two weeks because life has been crazy.. but I have to say..your blog.. your life.. it is so interesting and refreshing to read.. I love that you are sharing this adventure with us!!

Her outfit is so adorable!
