Bhardwaj Wedding

This past weekend Lisa and I headed off to Norfolk Va to attend my Friends Jason and Shweta's wedding. We left the kiddos in the hands of my mother in law (Thanks MEEEmmmm).

The weekend started a little rocky when I realized that I had booked the flight out of Hobby and back to IAH. Luckily Jackie took the day off and was able to take us to the Airport and pick us up afterward. whew (thanks meeeemmm).

We arrived, got our rental and headed to the Hotel. Along the way we took a long tunnel and I thought Lisa was going to lose it from the flashing lights and she was driving. Luckily she held it together.

We met up with all the Duke friends for dinner then off to get drinks (on the grooms tab). They had "Virginia is for Lovers" Trucker hats for everyone. So we sported them all night.

Lisa pumped me full of water so I would feel good the next day since I had planned to run with the Groom in the morning. Her plan kind of worked. I wasn't hung over, but I was up every hour going the bathroom.

The next day we hung out and almost got chlorine poisoning from the Hotel hot tub. Then it was time for the wedding. Here are some pics. This was my first Indian wedding and it was quite enjoyable.

This is the Groom wedding procession.

Our trip back was pretty non eventful. It was a good trip, and Lisa and I were glad to be back home with our boys. Lisa was all about every one's little babies. On the plane, in the airport, at restaurants, everywhere. She really missed Nolan and was trying to get her baby fix.

Colin's 3rd Birthday party

Well Colin turns 3 on Thursday the 19th. (I am almost 10 times older than him). This past Saturday we had his birthday party. It was a Spiderman themed party. Not sure where he heard of Spiderman but he is his favorite character now and we have found some Spiderman cartoons on Netflix for him to watch.

He had a Spiderman jump house, a Spiderman pinata, Spiderman cupcakes and cookies, and all the other Spiderman themed items from Party-City (plates etc). Lisa set up the night before and each time he saw something with Spiderman he got excited. e.g. "Wow a Spiderman table!"

All and all it was a great party. Great friends, great weather and I didn't have to be Spiderman (Thanks to Nick). Of course he snuck up on Colin and scared him.

Here is a link to the pics my mom took at the party.

Now you might ask what did he get for his Birthday. Well tons of the normal stuff like presents, toys, clothes, a power wheels jeep, but Daddy got him the best present of all. After the party Daddy smashed Colin's finger in the car door. Luckily it didn't cut it off (like his mom's finger) and hopefully it will be alright. I did kiss his a$$ the rest of the day. Hand fed him an Ice Cream sandwich, got him a new toy car and let him stay up late watching Spiderman on the iPad in our bed. Well I still feel terrible about it.

Spring

Well although Spring is in full swing, it feels like summer here. Here are just some tidbits from the spring.

Took the boys to get pics at the Bluebonnets in Kingwood.




I did a couple Triathlons. An Olympic distance is Austin (1500m swim, 26mi bike, 10k run) and a 70.3 Ironman in Galveston (1.2mi swim, 56 mi bike, 13.1 mi run). Here are some pics.
Got second place in my age group. Although days later with the official results I was no longer 2nd, but I got the 2nd place pennant.
This is me coming out of the water during the half Ironman.


Colin and I also went Kayaking at the G-Parent's in Kemah.
