"It is so easy to waste our lives: our days, our hours, our minutes.
It is so easy to take for granted the color of the azaleas,
the sheen of the limestone on Fifth Avenue,
the color of our kid's eyes,
the way the melody in a symphony rises and falls and disappears and rises again.
It is so easy to exist instead of live."

bilal's full moon birthday



Yes, just when you thought we couldn't go to yet another wine tasting adventure...we did.  We went to Ripken winery in Lodi (again), but this time they had a Full moon event from 6-9 with a live band and wood fired pizzas. I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate Bilal's birthday. I discovered my mom's camera and was eager to take some shots of the moon at different times in the evening. We had a great time, the girls even danced with Bilal. The winery even had a jumpy house for kids, definitely not something you would ever see in Napa..where they actually cater to families. Our friends Vikram, Sandhya and their two adorable kids, Riya and Ritham came as well to celebrate.  It was definitely a night to remember with a full moon in the vineyards.
