Super Stars!!

Today was the Diwali party and that means...the Fashion show and the Dance event. I was soooo nervous that Ashu will forget his steps because last 3 days of practice, all he did was to goof around with his friends and not concentrate on the steps or the song to remember to change the steps. Guess what! He did awesome! All of them were awesome. He didn't forget the steps and infact, he reminded Hiren to join hands at the end. But, it can't be flawless isn't it? In the beginning of the song, he had to move out of the circle and join his partner Swarali and he went to Tanvi instead. It was funny, but he quickly realized and went to Swarali.

We didnt take the camera or camcorder as they confused us by saying they've arranged for video and photos. Almost everyone had their own cameras and camcorders! Sigh! But, i will nag my friends and get the copies :)

Last but not the least, Fashion show was terrific! Both looked great. Aj was so funny and cute. He went and stood in the middle of the stage and was standing like a statue, posing for the cameras. Ashu was looking very handsome and walked only half the stage and turned back hurriedly during the first round. Second round he had to hold hands with Shweta and walk as a couple. While returning back he left her hand and walked fast, leaving her behind!! Mrunal was making fun of me saying 'your son left my daughter' :-)

On Friday, we had the dress rehearsal at Swati's house and wow, what a chaos it was. Aj refused to wear the kurta. He was in dhoti type bottom and T.shirt. Looking like a Telugu movie hero!! Considering that i had no hopes today that he would wear his kurta and he did. Ashu's group did the dance okay on Friday. Not their best, but today they were awesome! I got them the rewards that i promised them. Girls got the Cinderalla light up pen with bubbles and stamp. Boys got the batman pen with whistle. They were very happy.

All said and done about the cultural show, i have to tell you my soga kadhai. I comitted to make Besan Burfi for the party. I had never prepared that before. Actually, i haven't even eaten it before..so no idea how it would look. I assumed that it should be something like Mysore pak, which it was, but the process was worse than the pain in the rear!! Last week being so crazy with me running around the town, taking ashu for his practice, Karate and Leaps, i ended up making it only at 11 pm last night for today's party. It took me an hour and i ended up with terrible pain in my arm. But, the pain was worth it. It was so good and there was not a single piece left. Even Ashu came and took 4 pieces of it, which is very rare!! :-)

Yesterday was Amit's birthday party and Aj was fully charged like the energizer bunny and was going on and on and on with his veshamams there. When nobody was looking, he digged in the cake and all red-faced! Almost everyone commented on how active and naughty he is (like we didn't know before!). People came and asked me and B what we feed him and i was tempted to say 'Beer!' ;-) They came to a conclusion that something's crazy in our house that we ended up with two naughty boys who are T3 and T4 (Terminator 3 and 4!). He continued his veshamam today and kept me on my toes the whole day..I can barely walk now!! :-(
