The highlight of the week was Eid-ul-Fitr☪ also known as "Choti Eid". This is one of two Eids we celebrate and comes after fasting for a whole month and therefore highly anticipated. We look forward to eating lots of delicious foods especially desserts. This year Eid fell on a working day so we didn't get to celebrate in the traditional way on the actual day of the Eid. However, we had decided to take a weekend getaway with a group of friends to just relax and enjoy.
We went to the White Mountains in New Hampshire and enjoyed a great time at a family resort. There were lots of activities at the resort and surrounding areas, so the time passed by quickly and we had a memorable time. The White Mountains area is very picturesque and I feel like each season it has something different to offer. I now look forward to the fall season when we will try to go there again and look at the colorful leaves.
The rest of the week went by pretty quickly with our usual activities. There was playgroup, park playdates and a trip to the mall for the day that was too hot. I can't believe after the winter we have had, we are already complaining of the heat.
Here are my photos from the week:
