2017 so far, in .... one entry!

I honestly don't know how life can get so busy. It has been so much so for us since last Christmas  (yes since December 2016), when we took a lovely trip to India to visit family and do some sightseeing but never got around to write about it. Of course, I have loads of pictures to post from that trip. Suffices to say for now that we had fun, saw the Taj Mahal, and made some great memories with our family there.

India Trip. Ella had a lot of fun with cousins Maitreyee and Teertha! We took a trip to see the Taj Mahal and other beautiful sites of India and had a good time with family.


Here the girls are swinging in the garden swing at grandma's and grandpa's house:

Fancy hotel bathroom selfies!





Riding to Delhi in our own bus.






The beautiful and unforgettable Taj Mahal.

One more.












We stayed at a really nice hotel that night. It was all lit up and beautifully decorated for Christmas. 



That same night we went out to visit this beautiful marble shop which was also the place they made all these amazing tables, vases, and plates.







Our Christmas card:




We bought this beauty for our home:

 Another historical place we visited:

Big family gathering: it was to celebrate grandpa's 70th birthday.



Happy Aaji and Azoba!

Daughter/father dance.




All the cousins had a great time with the photo booth!

 
(One of Rishi's friends gave him this pretty pine tree as a present. One year later, it grew pretty big and the family decorated it nicely for Christmas!

Beautiful cousins!

We had fun ringing in the New Year's together, making cakes, kebobs, and pizzas.
