otherwise known as the brown family with the white guy :)

cousins of cousins

this would be a gathering of cousins and cousins of cousins!  little maria is not sure quite what to do while all of the other kids play angry birds! and a nice photo of the moms taken by mahala. vineetha changed into blue clothing to match us :)

betty's visit

betty, sushil, anna and maria came for a visit - roughly one year after we went to visit the! the kids once again had a great time together. we went to tomales bay, the exploratorium, and the fairfax festival. it was a full schedule!

sweet deja vu

mahala and noble requested this photo be taken of them since it is a dulpicate of the photo we have framed in their room...a photo taken two and a half years ago.

fairfax parade

both kids marched in this year's parade. noble marched with his preschool and mahala marched with the girl scouts!

graduation day

noble has graduated from preschool we're so proud of our little guy! they had a nice little ceremony outside and called each one of them up for a "diploma", a power rock to keep with them always and some other little souvenirs. also a photo of his official last day of school. kindergarten, watch out, here he comes!

last day of 2nd grade

the last day of school! bye-bye secong grade and our hard working first year teacher, ms. b.
the last day of school was followed by a pool party at a classmate's grandparent's house. a fun way to end the year!
