Father's Day 2009

Father's Day 2009

We had a jam packed Father's Day this year. We started the day off by going to a birthday party for one of our friends' daughter. They had face painting for the kids and Kirsh, of course, wanted a train painted on his face. We had some wonderful Indian food and a great time with our friends. After that we celebreated "Father's Day" at our house. It was fun to have everyone over and to spend some time here. We had some great hambergers grilled by ME! After dinner we played an intense game of volleyball. Happy Father's Day to all of the fathers in my life, my husband, my dad, and my father-in-law. I love you all very much!Kamal with his favortie part of being a dad - his son Krish! What a cute little train on your face Krish. Devin is always so good to play with his nephews. You can see by the look on Devin's face that this was a very intense game. : ) The players...Amber, Dad, Devin, Erick, Mark, and Kamal Eating dinner The yummy food!

May and June 2009

We have had a lot of fun so far this summer. We have been trying to take advantage of the warm weather while we can. So far we have spent a lot of time swimming, going to "This is the Place" Park, spending lots of time with cousins and friends, I took a trip with my sisters' and my mom, and of course we had to hit Lagoon! Yea for summer!!!

SISTER TRIP

We had a lot of fun this year on our "sister trip". Our first night in St. Geroge Natalie gave us pedicures and Holly used us to practice drawing blood and giving IV's. It was so funny - I wish I would have taken some pictures. The next day I spent most of the time in bed because I came down with the stomach flu, but I have to say it is easier to be sick on vacation than at home trying to take care of Krish. Our next couple of nights were spent in Las Vegas. All in all we had a great time. The only thing missing was Trina - she was too busy to come this year.

Spring Fun 2009

Soccer

We had a lot of fun this year cheering for Devin while he played soccer. His team did very well and they made it all the way to the state semi-finals - go Devin!!

Best Goalie in the State!!

Typical Devin face. Two of Devin's biggest fans - Owen and Krish! Dad and Devin

The Zoo

Krish and I met one of my best friends and her family at the zoo. Krish had a lot of fun looking at the animals this year. As you will notice he is turning into quite the little poser for the camera.

Devin's High School Graduation

For some reason I have a hard time realizing that Devin is growing up. In my mind I still think he is about 5 years old - no offense Devin. I can't believe that in a few short months he will be leaving us to serve a mission - where does the time go? We love you Devin!

Family Vacation

I still need to catch up, but it's more fun to post current events. A couple of weeks ago we took a, much needed, family vacation to Las Vegas. We had a great time! We spent too much money, ate too much food, and didn't get quite enough sleep, but that sounds like a typical Vegas vacation to me. My sister Natalie was nice enough to come with us and be Krishs' "nanny" so that we could go out at night without him. My parents and Devin were in St. George so they drove down to Vegas and were able to spend some time with us.

Our first night in Vegas we took Devin out on the town. Kamal wanted to show him "the ropes" - scary! Devin was pretty excited since he hadn't been to Vegas for a really long time.

Me and Natalie getting ready to go out with the crazy guys above.

This was another night when Kamal and I were trying to sneak out.

We love you Krish...but sometimes we have to leave you home : )

The place we stayed had a sand beach that led into the swimming pool. We were so excited to take Krish here because we knew he would LOVE it - and he did!

He also really liked the hot tub - I wonder were he gets that from : )

Krish getting more sand and water. It wasn't the warmest day, but Krish didn't seem to mind.

All of us in the hot tub. We had so much fun and can't wait to go again.

INDIA

Hello! Yes, I am still around. I thought since it has been a year since we visited India that I would finally get it posted on our blog. Just scroll down a little and you won't miss it. It is right after my Halloween post. Enjoy!!!

Happy Halloween!!!

I decided it was time I had a recent post on my blog. So here we go...We had a wonderful Halloween holiday this year. Krish was a cow - isn't he the cutest cow ever?!?

Sarah, Christian, and the "wider" side of Krish at our Trunk-or-Treat.

Sarah's mom watches Krish for me one day a week while I work. Krish has fallen in love with their entire family, but he especially loves Sarah - I think he likes her more than me : ).

Daddy and Krish.

We spent Halloween at my parent's house. My mom loves Halloween and always has her house decorated so cute. She always has yummy homemade chili, bread, and lots of candy, of course. Most of my family was there and needless to say we had a great night.
