Mother Dearest

Well, if you follow me on Twitter you already know mother was selected as one of the best dressed expats in New Delhi earlier this week! How exciting!!
Here she is at the Melbourne Cup in her winning outfit and hat!
PS- Don't you just LOVE the pink and green tent in the background!?
