Introducing Shreya & Sahana Sheth...

We entertained a few guests this week - my friend Gareth and Nehal's cousin Pinky and her family. Shreya was mesmerized with Meera, Pinky's daughter and spent the whole evening following her around. Building blocks with Uncle Gareth Meera and Nikhil spent a few hours in Shreya's room playing with the girls  Todd, Nikhil, Pinky and Meera with the girls

We spent the weekend in sunny Sacramento and as ever the kids kept themselves and us busy. Shreya and Sani enjoying time with lovely baby Naya Aiden  Fun times at Fairyland

To celebrate father's day we took Nehal to Sonoma for some wine tasting followed by a picnic lunch. Pretty satisfied dad (or so we think). Here are a few shots of the girls enjoying the outdoors at the winery while dad managed a tasting.

As seasoned San Franciscans, upon hearing that hot weather was striking the city (i.e. a high of 75 degrees) we hit the beach at Crissy fields. The water was chilly and the wind brisk but this didn't stop the kids having a great time. Aiden and Sani ready to cause some trouble Shreya and Arjun with Samir Sani making her own way

This sunday we headed out to Brentwood with friends for some cherry picking followed by a picnic lunch. Shreya picked the cherries and Sani ate them. A fun way to spend the morning. Cherry pickers ready to go - Sani, Max and Shreya Holding the ladder while Cindy climbs up Who ate all the cherries?

We made our annual visit to London and were so lucky to enjoy hot, sunny weather throughout our stay. Who says it rains in London? It was a packed trip with a week in London exploring all the parks, walks along the South Bank, double decker bus rides and celebrating Sani's bday (a little early) followed by a week in Center parks.  Vikram and Shreya at Golders Hill Park At Kensington Gardens At the Diana Memorial Childrens playground -  the  best playground I have visited with its own pirate ship   Still at Kensington Gardens - note the outfit change by Vikram and that Shreya wants nothing to do with it.  Sani's party at Topsy Turvy With Aunty Aarti Road rage with Zaynab   Malika Megan and Holly Alvin and Layla Ananya - Shreya's partner in crime at the party Ahaana, Ananta, Aarti, Ashwina and mum and dad Peter on the left (only a few days younger than Sani!)
