Family Update: Nov '11


The kids enjoying a bit of swimming at the River Godavari in Tanuku, when we visited that place during the Management Seminar Workshops in early Oct. '11.












Jowen enjoying a dip too at the River, under the watchful eyes of his father, Vimal.







Theo concentrating on his lego art work, while the Management Seminar sessions were on.


From the Wednesday evening Bible Study group, we decided to have a 'social evening', where we invited some friends to join us for a time of fellowship with Dinner & Games & having some fireworks. It was a great evening! 2 friends from Kerala & 2 friends from Saudi Arabia were there & it was a great time.

Part of the evening fun was lighting the fire-works. Theo was scared to come anywhere close to it, but Tryphena enjoyed lighting the sparklers and the flower pots.

This is now our 'new addition' to the family - GOLDIE.
A friend of ours gave this Doberman puppy to us. She is 3 months now ... came when she was 2 1/2 months. Quickly she is getting used to the routine and staying with us. Seems like a good watch dog - though she doesn't like to be alone, when the rest are in the house and she is tied in one corner. She is all for jumping & running around and messing about.


October 31st (Monday), was a family day for us, as we celebrate the kids' "family birthday". We didn't send them to school, but took them out for their favourite meal - McDonalds!!

Evening, we had a time of fellowship with friends from the Vineyard church, Ankit & Toshi. We all enjoyed a nice sumptuous & delicious chicken biriyani with pork fry.

Overall a great day for us as a family!!!
