Last Diwali

In Chandigarh with my cousin



He wanted to jump on Chakris


With my grandma who passed away in March


In Ludhiana with my other cousin & Bhua, who is holding Gudiya


With my Uncle aka Muchhe wale Nanu:-)


Last year we were in India this time and A had so much fun during diwali. He had never seen any firecrackers beside the firework on 4th of July. So last year was great since he gets to celebrate diwali twice and it lasted for almost a month… He started on fuljhari’s & chakris about 10 days before diwali & then after diwali we left for my bhua’s place in Ludhiana where they had saved bags full of firecrackers for him so we started again and every evening we used to go on roof & had fun:-) It was Gurpurav few days after diwali so people didn’t think we were crazy:-)

Now can't wait to be there next year.

I didn't take my camera there so these are pictures of pictures thats why a bit blury.

Wow! It's been ages since I had a proper Diwali, this made me so nostalgic! It's really fantastic that you're able to give your kids a real taste of the celebrations, I'm sure these will make for some really cherished memories!
