This morning, we drove down to Crystal Cove Beach and took some family self portrait pictures. The weather cooperated and the lighting was pretty perfect.
You’ll be seeing these on our holiday cards this year!

Over the Thanksgiving holiday, we drove up to the Bay Area to visit my parents and also Abhijit and family.
At my parent’s house, Madhu and her kids visited one day. Here’s a pic of Maya (Annika’s cousin) and Annika.
Here are the boys with their little cousin Kiran.
And finally a group shot.
For Thanksgiving diner, we went up to Abhijit’s house for dinner.
The boys got all dressed up. Annika refused to dress up, still wearing her trademark Abercrombie and Fitch casual clothes.
Abhijit had cooked all weekend long and had quite the elaborate spread!
Here are Rajiv and Nikhil goofing around.
And finally a pic of Anjali and Ashwini.
