2012 Year in Review - July and August Edition

So the blog has incurred a fair amount of criticism for the lack of any updates since June 2012, during which time both the little lady and the pup had birthdays, went to an awesome wedding, traveled to Niagara Falls, moved to NC, enjoyed Thanksgiving and now are in the midst of end of year celebrations.  Ok, ok...criticism warranted - in a word: laziness.  These beautiful Carolina blue skies make sitting in front of the La Computadora hardly ideal. That said, the public at-large demands updates, so this out to catch you up on the happenings of July and August:

Sachi Turns 2!  
In celebration of Sachi turning 2, the entire country took the day off and set off thousands (if not millions) of dollars in fireworks.  What did the Ozas do?  Picnic in the park.  

Start with a good-looking (non-dairy) cake...

..., which is quickly destroyed.

And a party was had at Beachwood park:

Days later, Sophi Bofi from NC came to visit.  Where else is there to go?  Indians game!  

In August, the Sachi followed her Indian roots by making the obligatory trip to America's Northeast crown jewel, Niagara Falls. For those that haven't been lately, it seems that every 3rd person in Niagara Falls, NY is of Indian descent.  

Maid of the Mist!  

August was also prime time for playtime with members of the east side crew (co-starring: Elsie, Cecilia, Max and Jack):

...as well as a nasty looking caterpillar (yeah, its real!)
