| gundara

Well the boys will he boys and my goodness the quarantine has brought us all closer than ever and nick and jatin are best friends-father and son in the cutest way! They have started daily workouts and have a home gym setup in the backyard. Jatin can’t do pull ups yet so he hangs on the bar to build strength.

The epic coke and milk recipe was handed down. Milk first. Ice cold coke on top.

The arcade has become a hangout for all things including commemorating the 40th anniversary of pac man by building a custom coaster. read more

COVID-19 May-June 2020

| gundara

Well our new normal isn’t quite normal but everyone is adjusting to our new lives during the pandemic. The news has not been covering the pandemic at all for a few weeks now after a black lives matter movement has taken precedence after the murder of George Floyd. This year has officially been a very dynamic and historical moment in time with such huge disruptions to what we called normal. It has inspired and changed us all in many ways. For me my art has kicked into high gear as an expression of love and hope that we can all be kind to one another. read more

COVID-19 Mother’s Day and More

| gundara

Mother’s Day was lovely this year. I slept in and got coffee and cards in bed followed by a road trip to mom and dads and then over to McDonald’s to pickup breakfast. In the afternoon we swam, Aanika and I rocked our matching outfits and we ordered Greek Food. It was perfect.

Everyone is doing well and staying positive and safe during the never ending stay at home orders. It looks like things won’t be lifted until July so we are continuing to live life and have fun everyday. Lots of outside play time. Daily walks even in the rain! Video Games. Netflix and Chill – until Aanika wakes up lol. Family car rides. Time to enjoy and cherish the little things. ❤️ read more

We’ve finished 2 weeks at home with the kids. It’s been an adventure for sure but starting to get into the rhythm of things. We had one social distancing hang out with the neighbors before that was banned and have been taking the kids for drives. Watching tiger king on Netflix and I’m teaching jatin how to cook! Some snapshots below. The first one is what grocery shopping is like these days.

COVID-19

World wide social distancing and quarantine is in place to help stop the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. It’s scary and there is no supply of paper goods in the stores. The kids schools have been closed for at least 2 weeks and we are all being encouraged to stay home as much as possible. We are blessed to have ample goods at home and a safe beautiful neighborhood to stay in. Hoping all our family and friends are safe and healthy. ❤️

Nick and Aanika enjoying the beautiful morning view.
