Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays everyone! Hope the Christmas vacation is coming along nicely..
I've been waiting for these holidays since the past few months. It has been a hectic year for us as I started working after a considerable gap. Adjusting to the routine of the new job, toddler daycare and buying a house.. feels like a long year..
My parents and sister are visiting from India and my youngest sister from Idaho is here for her winter holidays.. And we had all these trips planned but guess what?! My husband and I are down with cold, cough, eye infections. The winter is being a little severe this year. The travel plans look a little shaky for now and I feel slightly disappointed. But hopefully the holidays won't end by the time we get better!!
I still like this time of the year.. it is festive all around, people seem generally nicer - It is probably because we feel relaxed and that reflects in our attitude as well :-) These holidays must be a way of preparing and re-energizing us for the next year.

So, hope all of you have unwinding and a renewing holiday spending time with your friends, family & loved ones.
