Baby Shower in Tucson, AZ on June 10, 2007

With my cousin Sudhakar and his wife Prashanthi

Beautiful Cake!

with my cousin Hannah and her husband Doug

With my Uncle Elias and Aunt Esther who threw this shower


Variety of fruit, Indian sweets and a Sari in those plates

Reading the Scripture

with Hannah, Esther Aunty, Sion Aunty and Suzi Aunty

We drove after the game to Tucson to visit my relatives. We stayed with my Uncle Elias and Aunt Esther's home. My uncle and aunt took good care of us and we enjoyed their hospitality. We went to church with them the next morning. My aunt threw a shower for me that afternoon and invited the rest of our relatives for lunch. Indian tradition of a shower is quite different from the US. She gave me sari, plate full of fruits and Indian sweets. She asked Cameron and I to read different verses from Deuteronomy 6:7-9, 20-25 and my uncle prayed. My cousins and aunts brought gifts (which is not really an Indian tradition). It was a very good time and we were not ready to drive back that evening so we enjoyed another night there and drove back very early on Monday.

You're looking really well and I think I can actually notice that your pregnant! Waiting for your doctor's update.
