Kirin at 30 Months

The big event this past month was a wedding in Austin, TX
We traveled with lots of clothes and hung out with lots of family!

First, there was the sangeet and garba

This picture was taken by Milan!

Then there was the groom's procession and wedding ceremony

 Finally there was the reception

The whole family gathered

Kirin spent most of the time at the reception doing flips during the speeches but a fun time was had by all!

Kirin at 29 Months

Kirin is 29 months and naughty as ever

Despite the naughtiness, earlier in the month, Santa left quite a bounty 

We spent the winter holidays with grandparents in the sun and ocean in Mexico!

It was warm and relaxing and everyone had a grand time

This video was taken the day we landed and you can see the giddiness

 Santa came down on the beach in a parachute bringing gifts for the kids

The adults did some parasailing too

 Unfortunately, we had to leave paradise for reality soon enough... but we will be back!

Kirin at 28 Months

We spent part of our Thanksgiving break doing a stay-cation in San Francisco

We ate at our favorite digs,

rode public transport,

 did a nice hike in Lands End, 

and saw some cable cars. 

Gratuitous iPhone X photos back on campus (unfortunately, not from one that we own)

Next stop:  Mexico for the winter holidays!  

Kirin at 27 Months

We managed to go another Halloween without buying any costumes.  Loyal readers will recognize this train conductor and monster from years past.

We also had a nice visit from family from the east coast.

Here are the four cousins, from youngest to oldest.

And the adults (photo credit to the older kiddos)

We then did a Thanksgiving day photo shoot

As many of us today, we are all thankful for family, friends, good health and some "foob"

Happy Thanksgiving!
