We celebrated Medha and Pavan's sixth birthday on Saturday Feb 20th, 2010. They were sooooo excited about the many, many gifts they got from their grandparents, aunts and uncles! Not to mention the guava cake (yes, Virginia, there is such a thing!) from San Jose's Aki Bakery along with their favorite Cheese Pizza. Adults had "Paav Bhaji" pizza.
A couple of days later, they celebrated again - this time with their classmates and friends at Pump-It-Up. Just to mix it up, they had Mango Mousse Cake from Cupertiono's Sogo Bakery.
I went to the Holy Land and got to spend some time with Vivek. As you may know, he's teaching high school students in Ramallah (in the West Bank). Here are some pictures (and a video) of him and the Old City in Jerusalem.
