One more reason to be in Bangalore?

Chennai Visit

We returned from a 3-day trip to Chennai last Sunday. The heat was unbearable. We took the night train on Friday and reached Chennai early morning on Sat. We did a traditional birthday ceremony for Keshav on Sunday. During our stay at Chennai, we met Sumathi Narayanan, Chaya and Anirudh who are on their India visit. We returned to Bangalore on Sunday.

Jul 15th was our 8th wedding anniversary. We went bowling with the kids, had dinner at Utsav restaurant in Jayanagar before returning home.

Bangalore has cooled considerably - the lows are even below Livermore. We are still looking for an apartment to buy - haven't had much luck so far.

Vallabh likes his school and has progressed to the next level in swimming. Keshav's adding new dimensions to his antics everyday

Keshav turns 2!

Keshav celebrated his second birthday on Friday (30th June) - the first one he'd remember! There were quite a few kids from our block who attended the party. We had snacks, juice, pizza and a butterscotch flavored cake. The kids played 'red light - green light' going with the car theme :) - got tired, and moved on to coloring and turned the place upside down - pretty normal for us. Anu conducted a musical chair with a twist - instead of chairs, the kids had to pick a car from a reducing pile of cars at the center of the circle. Keshav was quite oblivious of the fact that it was his birthday until he stood in front of the cake and everyone but him started singing. He flashed a huge smile and went for the candle - obviously, knew the drill!! More pics at our Flickr site...
