Good to be home again

Chinese New Year

It's been a sweltering hot Chinese New Year.

It seems hotter than the previous CNY. Every year is hotter than the last. Global warming? Yar, that's what everyone's telling me.


Chinese New Year is quite different this year. Found myself blinking back tears many times, missing my Pa. Time has moved on. Yes, it gets easier, but sill missing him......

I had a great time going for get-togethers with family and friends. As on any festivity, we EAT, EAT and EAT some more!

Ate Yee Sang 7 times already this year!!  (according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yusheng, this practice started in Singapore)

This is the 'Must Have' during Chinese New Year.

The sumptious 8 course Chinese Dinner is as usual too much. Too much rich, meaty food and not enough vegetables.

   Gathering my courage, I stepped on the weighing scales!!!! OMG!!!!

Christmas

Christmas - Jesus' Birthday!!

Christmas Eve - the usual 'do' with my side of the family - but this year, my Father was not around. After everyone has gone hme, the kids said 'something' seems missing in the celebrations. Then we all got teary-eyed when we realised 'WHO' is missing.

Christmas Day Lunch with Anthony's side of the family. Quite a small gathering. Not everyone is here this year. My MIL was in Penang celebrating Christmas with her daughters. A close cousin was in Genting with her children and grandchildren.

Christmas Day Dinner @ my home. We're really blessed with so many friends who brought so much food !!!

Digging into the turkey drumstick. Yum!!!

This turkey was huge & yummy. Many thanks to Ryan!!!

Helping to blow out Jesus' Burthday Candle :-)

It's about making others Happy!! The Giver is happier than the Receiver!

Day after Christmas Lunch - Cousin's wedding. Eat again. Will be followed by the actual Wedding Dinner on New Year's Day.

Day after Christmas Dinner - Friend's 25th Wedding Anniversary Celebration @ The Armada Hotel.

So Blessed

Thank you Jesus.
