Hello! April

Hello April.  I know I always say this, but actually can't believe how is it April already? All I recall is my son's semester exam started by beginning of March and finished by mid week.  And so we took 10 days off from work.  We visited Kerala.  I thoroughly enjoyed my holiday.    Here is a little sneak peek of our holiday.


This summer is super hot is kerala.


Aryan got his cricket ball carved from the coconut stem.

Organic coconut from our land.  I think this man is touching is 80's. As a singled handed, he husked out 500plus coconuts from the hard shell.

Kids playing on the Coconut coir.

This is one of my favorite shots. The calf (Amani) hiding behind her mother's legs. She was so friendly with children and kids loved playing around her.

Aryan was running behind the chick the whole day and managed to hold it once.

Absolutely playtime- Children enjoyed their holiday to the most.

Then we went to city for shopping.

Our Holiday to Calicut & Malaparamba

It's already November...Nice to start the month with refreshing memories.  Our recent trip to Kerala, Kozhikode was refreshing and definitely have a calming effect.  If you travel during October you will enjoy rain,sun and cold.  They can be described as majestic and beautiful.   

The first four days we spent at the Malaparamba father's place.  This time we were lucky to visit lots of temples nearby.  We were determined to see it all and in the end, we still felt like we had lots of exploring left to do.  Malaparamba is such a beautiful mountain area.  It rained off and on but felt nice cool during the day and chill in the night.

One of the things we did while in Malaparamba was hiking.  I'm so insanely proud of Aryan.  He hiked without a complaint, enjoyed every view and played with wonderful dirt.  He loved hiking,this help him to get his energy out. We loved it because we enjoy the nature and very refreshing from city life.

Aryan enjoyed his 7days trip at fullest.  All he did was hike, played with kids around and he used to drift off to sleep easily at night . He also did fishing, he was very happy he catched three fishes.  

Last few days we spend time with Aunty’s house in Kozhikode.  All our cousins from Hyderabad,Bangalore and Kerala joined us.   I’m a little sad, I was busy enjoying the good company I didn’t take snaps.

 
 
 

We're hoping to make it back not only next year, but to spend more time with rest of our families. I've really enjoyed sharing our holiday, it's refreshing my brain for this November.

Happy Weekend!

Feel like I blinked and a whole week goes by.   It’s the 2nd weekend of September.   August was a very successful month in my shop and  wholesale order.  Although I was juggling between professional and personal life -morning hectic, school activities, boy sick with a viral infection, homeworks&classworks......... I took a  break celebrating Onam festival and our wedding anniversary with family. 

Back in September... Here we're already 12 days into September.  I'm still kind of recovering from last month's schedule.  This weekend is going to be another busy one.  My son got his Semester exam on this coming Monday.  And I’m preparing as well... Mom’s duty call.

Till Now...

Kite Flying: I know august is not a time of year for kite, but the wind was favorable to start out the kite high up the sky. We all got a chance to flying and had great fun.

Yellow Belt:  My son was awaiting for this function.  But when finally the day came, he was sick with a viral infection.   He couldn’t go to the ceremony, but his master gave the certificate with honors once he was back to the class. 

Clay competition:  Aryan love work with clay.  He got first prize for the Clay competition at DAV School. We might not realize, but this promotes kids’ creativity, imagination and problem solving skills(rolling, squeezing and forming). 

Pencil shading by my husband:  Beautiful picture of Krishna and Radha done by my husband. He is so good at his work.  I got this picture as a small forward photo, he fleshed out the photo to bigger dimension. Oh boy! I love those eyes.

Happy Weekend.
