    Raya's first trip by air (Scottsdale, AZ)!

    Hi All - last weekend (11/20-11/23) we experienced our first trip together (Nishi, Raya, and I) out of town by air to Phoenix/Scottsdale, Arizona.  I think everyone had a little anxiety, not knowing what to expect.  However, things went really well = meaning, Baby Love (Raya) slept through most of the (3 hour one-way) flight...and the only time she was fussy was when she was hungry (jus like Daddy!).  Overall, it was a success on the plane ride (a BIG sigh of relief for us parents).  As for the time while we were in town - we had a blast in the 80+ degree weather everyday! 

    Check out the photo album about our trip. 
     
    A few highlights (some of the below were captured in photos):
    • We enjoyed our wonderful stay at the Hyatt Regency Resort (Scottsdale, AZ) <thanks to Nishi for coordinating the trip!> = sleeping in, working out, walking around the resort.
    • Made S'mores together at night
    • Went to a classic car show, which was a big local attraction
    • Met up with John and Jessica (John's wife, not my sister) Madarang for brunch at the Metro
    • Nice drives throughout the city/greater Phoenix area

    Have a happy Thanksgiving, All!

    Almost end of of 2008

    it's been a while..it's almost the end of Nov.  Raya is almost 4 months old.  Ty's foot is healed, mine is getting there. Uso is almost healed so he can walk etc....
    I am getting used to being a mom-very physically draining in my opinion but rewarding as well! We have our schedule down.  When I nap, she naps or should I say vice versa. :-) she calls the shots around here.  What else is going on.....not much else.  I have been able to take time off work-4 months which has been really nice.

    Is it really already November?!

    Nishi and I can't believe that it is already November...which means the Holidays are right around the corner, wow!  There is the usual excitement around seeing family/friends you have not visited in a while, homes/towns/cities so decorative, egg nog <grin>, and if you know me (Ty)....the wonderful comfort food....mmm, mmm!  Then there is additional excitement as it's Raya's first Holiday season!  Raya is a little over 3 months right now and we are looking forward to seeing our families and friends this year....
