Hello everyone… I just came back from Kerala. While I was there I was baptized and I also got to attend my Uppappan’s wedding.
Just Arrived at my Appachen's House
I got to meet my Appacha & Ammachi… Appacha and I had a good time
Telling Appacha all about my flight
My Amma says that I look like my Uppappan… she often wonders if that is a curse or a boon…
Uppappan & I sharing a joke
The day we landed there Babuappachen, Kochammachy & Veena Aunty came to visit me…

While I was there Appacha took me for walks around the house…

The next day we went to see my great grand parents…

Given that there are far too many mosquitoes in Kerala, Appacha got me this cool mosquito net

I got to hang out at home for the next couple of days…
Chatting with Appacha, Ammachi and Uppappen
And then it was time for my baptism
Ready to head to Church

The next day was my Uppappen’s wedding… so many of Daddy’s cousins came to Appacha’s house in the evening and so I had a fun time playing with a lot of my second cousins…

In the morning once Amma, Daddy and I were dressed we got to take a Picture with my Uppappen.
