10 years flies by

On our tenth wedding anniversary, we did what we do best. Did the SFO tour for visiting relatives.

The golden gate may not rank in the top 5 romantic spots in the world, but it sure ranks in the top 5 for us! Most notably the most romantic spots in our life being

1. our bedroom
2. our bedroom
3. our bedroom
4. our bedroom
5. golden gate bridge vista point

This was our umpteenthuncountableth visit to the vista point over the last ten years and we still had a blast in spite of the cold winds and chilly weather.

We also had a nice dinner at one of our local favorites, the Chaat house and followed it up with some dessert at out other favorite place (the reason we went to San Francisco in the first place!), Ghirardeli Square.

The ice cream as usual, was excellent.

So are the moments and memories!

This week will not see that many posts as we are going to celebrate the anniversary over a whole week with relatives and friends!

Once again, thanks to our parents who by logic or fluke got us together and more importantly to all powers unknown to us that played a part in this partnership!

As for the next ten years, we say "Bring it on!"

Midlife crisis

Was telling a bunch of high school friends today, that I was going through a mid life crisis. We met after six months (one of the classmates who joined us, I haven't seen since 1998!)

They pretty much scoffed at me and said they refuse to accept that "we" were in the middle of our life(if I was in midlife, they by extension were in midlife too) or that what I am going through constitutes a crisis.

My passing reference to a crisis was because of

1. constant health issues in-spite of watching what I eat, the more frequent exercise (compared to no exercise)

2. the crazy work schedule and the associated stress that comes with it

3. increasing inability to make the little one drink a glass of milk or finish her cheerios (it is much worse compared to Jr.)

Apparently these do NOT qualify as constituting a crisis.

Whatever!

Cool girls

Went to WalMart earlier today. As usual, the little one enforced her new policy.

Cannot leave shop without buying her something, anything.

Today it was glasses. So the kids picked up glasses. Five dollars a piece. Considering all the long car rides that await us over summer, decided to buy them the glasses..

They did pose for pictures as soon as we came home

Indoors...

and outdoors..

Cool, no?

ps. Tonight at bed time, little one said "I was mad at you yesterday so did not say sorry. Can say sorry now and give you a kiss!" . Like WA said, this too shall pass..
