Went to our favorite Mandalay beach resort in Oxnard this year for the kids spring break. Had a gorgeous presidential suite so the kids had their own room. Gorgeous beach balcony views. Went with the flow: beach, pool, pizza, relaxing. It was a lot of fun! Perfect type of vacation for our crazy unique family.
Nick made The Main Event again this year which was hosted in Nashville! We were not overly excited to attend but ended up absolutely loving it!! I got my first pair of cowboy boots, and we went clay shooting for the first time. Made some great friends and enjoyed country hip hop fusion music!
Spent a few days out in Vegas to celebrate our 16 year anniversary. Stayed in our favorite Cosmopolitan suite with a view of the gorgeous Bellagio fountains. Watched the MJ live show at the stratosphere. Beautiful, relaxing few days.
Ate: Pizza in the room. Watched: Eddie Murphy delirious and Netflix You.
Visited: cosmopolitan, park mgm eataly, encore, Wynn, Link, Harrahs, belaggio, planet Hollywood, stratosphere.
Aanika’s can always rely on Brownie to be a sweet and loving friend. They often hang out together and cuddle on the couch. Brownie is so kind and gentle and handles Aanika in any mood. Love these two.
We had the pleasure of visiting mom and dads rental property in Fallbrook this weekend. It felt good to see them at ease and in such a beautiful setting like they are used to.
Shopping in Ludhiana Wave Mall. Met the sales people’s 3 month quota in one day so he wanted a photo with us!
After the wedding was done we decided to spend a night in chandigarh. Nick had our driver Bunty take us to his grandparents home where he lived as a child. The house was torn down but it was still lovely to take a trip down memory lane with him.
3 houses down we ran into the family who knew Nick growing up as their 3 children played with him. Nick remembers their library of Archie and Tintin comics that he would borrow from.
Arjun and Isha’s Reception.
Had the pleasure of getting ready wish Isha darling for the reception so we got to hang out a bit before the party started. Wore my engagement lengha for the first time in 16 years!! Party was stunning. Felt like the Bellagio was transported into Punjab. Every part of the world was represented in amazing cuisine and the service was uhhhmazzing. Basically it felt like we were movie stars all night.
Arjun and Isha’s Wedding was early Thursday morning. We met the family at the farmhouse first thing and then went together as a caravan to the Hyatt Chandigharh. After the wedding we visit Nicks cousin Sunny and his parents whom he hadn’t seen since our wedding time. So special.
The Sangeet must have been the most fabulous wedding function that I’ve ever been to. Between the decor, so much beautiful family vibes and the food we had a party that could have lasted all night! But we all had to wake up the next morning for the wedding!!
After a day in Delhi we headed over to Ludhiana to meet the family for Arjuns wedding! After a very long and eye opening 6 hours we checked into the Hyatt in Ludhiana and then pushed off to the Nat Farm House for dinner. That’s when the fun started!
Vatna Ceremony – morning before the wedding. I have never had such fresh and delicious Paratas as in the outdoor kitchen of the farmhouse. We then blessed Arjun to get him ready for the big day while the house was getting decorated for the evening Sangeet festivities.
