Home for the Holidays

Good evening!
     I had to take a break from blogging for a while because of finals and the holidays, but I'm back! It's been a busy few weeks but I'm so happy to be back home.  I love coming home for the holidays because we're always seeing friends and family and preparing for various holiday parties and get-togethers.  Our house is always covered in lights and adorned with nutcrackers and snow globes, and my mom brings out this animated Santa Claus figure that has been around longer than I have.  It truly is the most wonderful time of the year!
     Every year the city of San Jose sets up "Christmas in the Park," when downtown SJ gets a festive makeover from several local organizations and clubs .  This year we decided to drive by the park a few times instead of dealing with the hassle of finding parking.  The ice-skating rink was playing Christmas tunes and a tall, brightly decorated tree stood in the middle of the park .  The food stands sold the classic hot chocolate and warm, fresh churros that we get every year.  Going to "Christmas in the Park" is a tradition for my family and it's a nice way to spend the holidays. 

I hope you all have had a wonderful holiday!
