Christmas is in the air...

We may be catching a bit of the xmas spirit after all. With the move and so much stuff going on with that and cleaning the townhouse to rent etc...we have hardly had time to even think of xmas. So, after putting Abhi to bed I came down to K getting all the lights out ready to decorate. Nothing extensive but just on the front door and porch, and some inside. We did not get a tree this year but the lights are something. We are going out of town this wed for xmas so we decided to skip it this year.

We also took Abhi to see Santa yesterday which he was not a big fan of. They had 'visit with santa' at our clubhouse yesterday which was so nice. It was easy and not crowded at all like if you went to the mall and you just take your own pictures. We tried to put him on santa's lap a couple of times but he would not go. We kind of stood around and let him watch some of the other kids sit on his lap. That did not convince him. The only thing he would do was wave at Santa but only from across the room. Of course, our camera died somehow between the townhouse and the house...no clue what happened...so I can't even share pictures of anything!!! I actually bought one of those disposable cameras just to have until we get a replacement camera. I keep holding it up looking for the screen only to remember that I actually have to look through the hole to take the picture!! Of course, those will get developed eons from now...funny how you miss that instant ability to share pictures.

Santa also came by on the fire truck through our neighborhood so K took Abhi out to see that. I was not home. K said Abhi watched with serious interest but did not wave or anything. He can say santa but when it comes to seeing santa he just is not too sure.

I do have a couple pictures I can share sent to me from my friend Sandy. Sandy is Sachin's mom, Abhi's buddy. We have been trying to see them every week when possible. The boys play so well together and it is a highlight for us each week. Sandy took a couple of pix of the boys, one in front of their xmas tree....
