For the last few holiday seasons we were in India and missed the freezing cold weather in NJ -;). This year Adit (and Samika too ..) were all excited to celebrate the holidays and so we got started ...
The first thing Adit wanted was a nice bigggggggggg holiday tree with a lot of decortaions. Thanks to Gouri's shopping skills, we have a nice 6.5 feet tall pre-lit holiday tree. The whole family got involved in decorating the tree. Since this was our first year doing this all of us had our own idea on how a holiday tree should look like and where in the house it should be placed. It felt like few blind men trying to describe an elephant -;)... Finally we did it !!!
The tree is nicely placed in the corner of our family room viewable from two of the windows. Each evening as the sun lights dim (ie @ 4-4:30 pm), Adit's job is to put the lights on and he does it diligently.. Samika is just happy that we have lot of lights in the house. The weekend before christmas we had a about 4-6 inches of snow. The kids and I went for a nice stroll in the wet-snow and took some pictures (slideshow below).
more pics/videos coming after the holidays ... Happy Holidays !
