The most normal-looking photo from Diwali I could find

Milan and I saw a sunset and a moon rise from the dish trail

We had a fun visit from cousins in Virginia over Thanksgiving.  Unfortunately, we didn't get a good photo of all of them, but this video of brownie batter eating pretty much says it all

Holiday festivities at the local mall

We unearthed a wii after a decade and it hasn't lost its luster.  

Here's some whole body boxing

Happy holidays!

Summer Adventures

Our summer started with a lost tooth and a note to the tooth fairy:

Despite being on the east coast and not having a tooth, the tooth fairy made good on her promise

Wearing cousins shirts on a trip to the science museum and for ice cream

Saw a big fireworks show in Gaithersburg

And did fireworks at home on the 4th of July (in Virginia where fireworks are legal)

Cousins at the park

Back at home, we had 2 joint birthday parties - 

One with Chuck E Cheese, and 

The other back at home with friends

First day of second grade!

Believe it or not, mom's first ever football game at Stanford
