Magical Times of Year ~ Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!!!

Last few days of year are so magical..with the excitement of welcoming new year, recapping memories of the year that is about to leave us off and on top of everything its the excitement to see your whole town around you dressed up with sparking tiny lights.

Christmas is not something that I have celebrated as a child growing up, but since my very first Christmas in this country some 15 years back, I always have looked forward to this magical holiday season with enthusiasm. Ever since I am here, I have embraced all of North American holidays and culture associated, with open heart and arms and brought it into my home. Have created own traditions around it which we as family can cherish years to come and my kids can make their memories around them...

This year Christmas is special for my family, as we are in new home. Though move was just 3 miles away from our old house we are still not yet completely settled. Moves are never easy, out of all of the moves we had to do this one sure was the difficult one, mostly because of the amount of stuff we gathered as our family kept growing. Most of my holiday decoration is still packed up somewhere in boxes which I can't seem to locate but that was not going to dampen my spirits this season.

I have decked up my new place to ooze holiday spirit with whatever old I could find and some new! This was one good reason for me to shop for some new decorations as well!!

Here are some corners of my holiday decorated home..

Ornaments - Some old, some new, some made and some found..
