Mom went back to Sibu during CNY. Tonight we were able to go visit cousin Philip together. And instead of catching the latest Chinese movie on the TV, we watched an evangelical meeting dvd by Pastor Lim of Blessed Church!
To all my relatives all over the world - "Gong Xi Fa Cai" from us here. We would love to see ur family portraits too!
Dad always loved taking family portraits. He always dressed in his finest, and he loved to take photos with all the grandkids. I do miss not having dad around. But praise God I still have many loved ones to keep this tradition on.
When we were still in Sibu, I remember it had become a tradition to take family portraits for many of my dad's buddies during CNY. And the best thing was u could see those pics taken over YEARS been displayed prominently in their living rooms.
Taking family portraits have always been an important part of CNY.
The kids were all expectantly waiting for that MidNight firework bonanza. Video games were one good way to kill time. But like usual, before midnight, most were asleep already.
This year we enjoy the fireworks at Chin's house. It was really fun.
Chinese New Year Eve Dinner. Obviously it doesn't feel the same as before without dad. Instead of eating out, we decided to have dinner at home.
