When you think of family night you imagine your family playing a game together or watching a movie. We took it to a whole new level. Family night at our house includes not only our family, but Eshwari's (our housekeeper) family. You usually see her girls, but her husband, Ramesh, and her nephew,Prakash, decided to join the party.
It started out as usual, with the changing of the design in front of the house.
I am not sure why they chose this design, but from what I could understand it had something to do with the holiday season coming up and the honor for the country.
Next, it was tattoo time. Carissa wanted a henna tattoo or Mehndi as it is called here.
The color is made from the seeds of the henna plant and then ground up and made into a paint like substance. It is then packaged and sold. It comes in a package that looks like a cake decorators tube. The tip is cut and then the design is put on your skin. At first it seems like paint on your skin, but then after 30 minutes it dries and peels off. The color is left on your skin in the design that was made. It is not harmful since it is all natural. It will last for about 7 to 10 days.BEFORE and AFTER
We all decided to get in on the action....
