1st Day of CNY

Today is the 1st day of CNY. We didn't have any plans for today except lunch with Kel's mum & mahjong again after lunch.

The kids woke up at about 11am as they had slept very late last night. When they are finally 'awake', Kel & I gave them their ang paos & we went down to the hall. I couldn't resist taking pics of them in their matching 'cookies & cream' pjs as they look so cute. :p
















Daryl posing while holding his imaginery gun. I can't stand him doing it as I find that he looks very 'violent' doing it. He had learnt this stance from 1 of his classmates who's very into military stuff.

A 'wide awake' Daryl while Dawn decides to sleep a little while longer. :p

Happy New Year to my 2 sleepyheads...

2011's Reunion Dinner

For this year's reunion dinner, we hosted it at our place again. This time round, we decided to have a BBQ as there is a huge common garden at the back of our house.

After dropping off the kids at school at about 9am, Kel & I went to Parkway Parade to have breakfast at Ya Kun, then proceeded to Giant to buy the rest of the food. When we are done with our shopping, we went to pick up the kids from school & went home.

Kel & Pat started to prepare for the BBQ while I showered the kids. I wanted them to nap 1st as I think that we would be up very late tonight.

At about 5.30pm, Kel & Pat went to start the fire for the BBQ.

Our family members started coming at about 6pm & the reunion dinner commenced...

At about 8pm, we had our lo hei as all of us is present, except for my father-in-law. He had decided to skip the reunion dinner for some reason.

The lo hei

After the lo hei, some of us continued eating, some continued chatting, some continued playing while Kel's mum, Chris, Francis & Pat played manjong!!

It was a great reunion dinner as it was a very rare occasion that all of us can get together for a meal & catch up with each other.

Here's wishing all of us a very happy & prosperous rabbit year!!
