Shiny new wheels!!!


Hello All,
Did I ever tell you that I love my first bike?

I learnt to ride on this cute bike.


I even learnt a few riding tricks on it...
It was always reliable and fuel-efficient...



I could even fix it myself whenever it broke down...

But alas, I outgrew it and the time has come to bid it farewell...
and buy myself a new bike!!!!





I love riding my new bike a lot!!!



I go riding with my dad to the park...




I am even trying to learn a few tricks on this one too.... but not quite there yet :-)


Taking my desire for new wheels as inspiration, Pinni bought herself a cool and flashy new car!!


She loves her car but complains of the long commute time.


I told her if she wants to use the carpool lane, she can always hitch a ride on my bike :-)


Here's wishing safe driving for both of us...
Take care all of you,
Lots of love,
Diya.

Trip to Tahoe : Take 2

Hello All,

We decided to celebrate President's day by checking out the snow at Lake Tahoe.


I was dressed for the weather, although the mitts were a tad too big.




I was ready with my ample supply of health drink(aka Milk)





The weather was sunny and the snow was soft and wonderful.


I was very excited to play in the snow... As you can see I was not the only one being childish :-)



I went sledding at Heavenly but was more interested in posing for pictures than sledding by myself.



The next day we went for a drive to Emerald bay.








After the scenic drive, we came back to the hotel for some quality family time.


The snow covered patio right outside our vacation home was a great place to relax.



I loved being pulled in the sled all day....





Whats a snow vacation without a snowman! So we decided to build one.



I am tempted to say it was a joint effort but between us, my dad isnt that good at bulding a snowman.

So I had to do the heavy lifting once again and plan the whole project.



Finally the snowman turned out so good, I couldnt help but kiss it.



All in all, a great vacation!

I am sure I will come back to check out the slopes once again.




As to the traffic on our drive back... now thats a diferent story :-)



Until next time, take care all of you.

Lots of love,
Diya.
