Lohri! sundrey mundre hoi!

January 13th is a big indian festival called Lohri. It is the thanksgiving of sort back home. Its supposed to be celebrated in style for a new baby (that means me!).  Back home in India, people celebrate with a bonfire and sing songs and dance around the fire while eating peanuts, popcorn and rewari (indian sesame seed brittle)
Chak de phatte! my punjabi dance

Puttar(son) Punjab de!
So mommy and I got in the spirit and got all dressed up punjabi style.. We sang punjabi lohri songs all day and had a bonfire (mini) at home

We threw popcorn in the fire and ate peanuts and sweets! 


Sunder mundriye ho! 
Tera kaun vicaharaa ho!


Dullah bhatti walla ho!
Dullhe di dhee vyayae ho! 
Ser shakkar payee ho!
