A busy fortnight
Sunday, September 7, 2008 at 1:48PM Our hands were tied (or dyed rather) for the last two weeks...
First an apology to all readers who read this blog.
Had to go to India on a 11 day trip to attend the BIL's wedding.
We had a ton of fun! The short and hectic trip (which was spent in Chennai except for a one day trip to the village in Anandathandavapuram) with two little kids was interesting and tiring to say the least.
Our house here in the US was being worked on and we did not want to publicise our going away to the world. My brothers place in Chennai was being worked on as well and they had moved to our old home.
It was nice for 6 adults and 3 kids to stay in a two bedroom flat and it got back so many memories from thirty years ago when we were little kids and we had three-four generations of folks in two or three rooms. There was no landline or internet though and that made it impossible to post anything.
The whole trip got back a flood of memories. There is something to be said about staying in the same room where you had the proverbial "first night" after marriage, except you have two kids lying between you and your wife and the entire room smells of DEET! Rest assured there will be a ton of posts in the next two weeks.
The wedding was awesome and we now have a new addition to the extended family and the new Mami has been given an A+ grade by Jr. and the little one!
We now have a new perspective on Chennai, India, Weddings, traffic, travel, life in general!
Cannot wait to write about it.

Welcome back Sundar!
There is something about Indian outfits and mehendi that just make little girls look like dolls :)
Cute pictures of the kids dressed alike. Brought back memories of my childhood with me and my sis being dressed alike :)
Welcome back and awaiting the new posts.
Awww, so cute, even the bed spread matches. I love the maruthani pattern. Did they actually wait or was it one of those super fast ones that stains really fast?
By the way the Little one is growing up and looking more like a pretty girl than a cute baby :) *thristhi suthi podunga*
:) good to see you back
The girls look so lovely. Enjoying this series:)
