Between the Indian national holidays and the US holidays we have been in celebrate mode since mid-June!! We had Halloween up in full-force, we won our awards for decorations and Lady Hiva had Halloween boxed up and the house clean 1 NOV. I was busy so I did not get the (other) tree(s) up that day as tradition. So the house was clean for 1 whole day before the Christmas bins came out!
We sold quite a bit of the decorations when we moved. We did not want to have all the weight in just holiday décor...however, we still have 4 trees up in the house! HAHA. Two large trees and two small trees.
We have had several activities to enjoy at different places throughout our community. Indians know how to have a party--good food, good music and LOTS OF SPARKLES!! My kind of people! :) It gives us an excuse to get some colorful (and sparkly) outfits to wear. And none of us complain about that prospect.
This girl is constantly doing cartwheel. She has perfected them on her own. She is now on to trying to do the splits.
I have all our creche out from around the world. I just need to find one for India...that may be a bit of a challenge.
So we are all decorated for the American Holiday Season! We just need to hope that our packages for Christmas make it here on time! I guess if they don't we will just have to extend our holiday hopping for a few more months!!! This colorful tree has been up nearly a year now, so why not just keep celebrating?!
