Diwali inspirations..

… from my home :)

Diwali is a much awaited festival. Its more about spending time with family and friends, a time for nostalgia! Isnt it?

Last year I decided to put some spark into the Diwali celebrations and did this :)  Enthused by Diwali decor ideas on some of my favourite blogs, I did some simple arrangements with flowers and the diyas…both traditional and the floating ones.. And the result was stunning!! What do you think :)

This year, I dont have any specific plans… waiting to see what will unfurl!!

Hope you all have a great time this Diwali.. with your near and dear ones :) Wishing that the festival of lights brings cheer to one and all. Happy Diwali!!!

Saraswathi Namasthubyam

Last Sunday, 23rd of May, 2010; it was Saraswathi pooja in Adi’s home, to formally initiate Adi into the world of knowledge. He’ll be starting preschool this June…

Some pics from the day…

The music/singing session was great and both Adi n Ammu sang along enthusiastically!! Hoping that Adi’s journey will be a great one… with lots of friends and fun to share along. May Goddess Saraswati bless him and endow him with a flair for learning!
