Sharon and Davin Wed…Hindi style!

 

Would you believe the only wedding I have ever attended was my own? I’m serious! So being invited to such an extravagant, lavish, lengthy, and culturally magnificent Hindi ceremony was a great opportunity! Lucky for us it was our landlords son who was getting married, and the whole wedding(ceremony and reception) was within 4 blocks of our house…YAY! Irene was making it a wet and nasty day…but the show must go on, and so did my makeup

Regg was lucky enough to have a festive shirt..thanks to my mother handing it down to him..it was my Daddy’s

I felt so underdressed…but I do love the dress I got from Old Navy…CLEARANCE OF COURSE!

I could not take a good pic that day..just could not..but I do like this dress a lot! its very vintage feeling and feels like it would be great to ride in..can’t wait to test ride in it I paired it with my off white Coccinelle handbag, which I have only used once before in the 6 years I have had it..I mess up white TOO badly(it’s a brand no one really has in the states, its like the euro coach I guess).

Our landlord(and the whole schmeal) looked fantastic!!

So many gorgeous saris!

 

The Bride and Groom…how gorgeous is she?

Since we were in a temple, we had to take off our shoes..which I have secretly always wanted to do! I loved the art and statues of gods and deities

 

Check the program: Love it!

Also a first here on my blog: VIDEOS! this whole thing was so full of tradition and wonder, pics just wasn’t doing the job!

 

The party went on for days….no really..DAYS! I am good on the partying for a while after this weekend! Glad to be part of so much culture and to be surrounded by such new and interesting things..all a few blocks away from my house It made me think about how happy I was when I got married. I feel so lucky to have a great husband by my side <3

 

CONGRATS TO THE NEWLYWEDS!

The Kid: Sans training wheels :D

Mid-last week, Hubb and I decided it was time for The Kid to ditch his ruddy old training wheels! Pride may be a sin, but we were swelled to the brim with it. Without the help of either of us, he got on his newly two-wheeled transport, and rode on! BALANCE AND ALL! Not one fall with the initial push off..many later…but none for the first few minutes! Suffice it to say, Hubb and I were dumbfounded when he did…stuck in the middle of telling little man to “wait for us!” or “be careful!” he was off Making the family ride to Soundview Park(which is a bit out of the way, especially with The Kid tagging along) went smoothly, and documenting the memories from our ride/picnic, makes me feel all warm and fuzzy doing it 2 weeks in a row makes me look forward to doing it a bunch more times before the cold sets in.

It was time to take the wheels off!

^^I found it ironically hilarious that he wore this shirt today..HA!
Finally being free of the training wheels, we as a family of bike-lovers, took off exploring our new favorite park.

-We made camp by the Bronx River, and relaxed to some tunes

Monday we did it all again! except this time; I have pink hair


I picked him up a cool little cobra bike lock at Toys R Us few weeks back, finally using it!

We all had bike bags and helmets..even gave The Kid a button I got from Summer Streets.

I thought my outfit was SO CUTE…but I gotta face it, I do not know how to pose to show off clothes..help please? Been slowly upgrading my lady biker wardrobe…maybe I‘ll post on that soon

is it no wonder why I get gawked at while on a bike? why do I expect less? I’m an eye-catching cruiser doll
The fall-like weather and family rides about the hood make me hopeful..and anxious! LETS GET OUT AND SEE THE WORLD ON OUR BIKES..TOGETHER! FOREVER!
Here’s to our future cyclist
