~~Birthday Celebrations~~

      Yet another eventful year has passed and as I look back there are lots of memories happened over the past one year. Coming to my birthday I went to Pittsburgh to celebrate my birthday with my cousins. I had given instructions to Swetha Siona Shreya and Rishi on how I expect the celebrations to be and  I gave few suggestions. They got up early in the morning around 6:30 which is unusual in the middle of their summer holiday just to prepare for the grand party. I saw them filling lots of water balloons and was told all these is for me. So I was thinking twice how my day was going to be.



At 2 o clock they started the party outdoor. First games was obstacle course where I had to hit a bulls eye with a ball,zip up a tent,go on a mini hiking, playing little bit of basketball,soccer,lacoste, hopping,skipping ,ball tapping and finally running to deadline. Then all the people did the same course. After that we had a mini battle playing with water balloons with me getting the maximum hit and everybody getting completely drenched. After that we had the three legged race as I paired with Sheila came second. 

  
Then we had the cake cutting ceremony .The bottom half was a cookie and the top was a chocolate cake. On the top of the cake there were marshmallows, baked  drizzled with chocolate syrup ,caramel and M&M as toppings. There were more candles in the cake as they aligned to make my name out of the candles.With all difficulty I blew all the candles and finally had the awesome cake.



In the evening we went to downtown , visited a fair and then went on to have dinner at a restaurant named Mexico city to have a good dinner. Then we went to the view point to have a good view of the Pittsburgh downtown. We later went to aerobic show happening in the city ,we stayed there for some time and came back home. 



Its been an awesome birthday and all credits goes to Swetha Siona Shreya and Rishi who made my day a memorable one!


PS: All pictures taken with new camera which I got as a birthday gift from Sheila :)
