Dana and Shedrick

Benjaminal are celebrants of love. How can one not revel in the lifelong commitment two people make to support and nurture each other?

So we jumped at the opportunity when our friends Dana and Shedrick invited us to mark their five-year wedding anniversary one recent Saturday.

Bermuda in October

October 21 st

BermudaAs mentioned a few posts ago, Ben and I took enough trips these past few months to make the summer feel like it was twice as long.

Our most recent out-of-town travel was to Bermuda, where the air smelled beachy, the moon shone brighter and relaxation was our only option. Not that we’re complaining, trust me.

We were in good company, too, for The Bopper (better known as our nephew Ian) made it out for his first international adventure!

The timing of our five-day trip in early October was perfect because the chill of autumn had just then struck St. Louis. But Bermuda welcomed us with warmth, and, when time came, it was hard to leave that behind.

From Cali with Love

October 11 th

Toward the end of the summer, Ben and I took a trip out West to visit my parents, grandma and extended family.
One thing is for certain during such visits: We are fed. Very well. With mouthwatering morsels of Indian treats.

This trip also saw us dolled up to celebrate the fifth anniversary of my cousin, Chaitali, and her husband, Eric. Being that Ben and I are suckers for love, bling and dancing, we knew we were in the right place — an Indian party!

It took us 10 months to revisit the Bay Area, but we promise that Cali will be seeing more of Benjaminal in 2010.
