Short homecoming, party, family...& a lot more!!

Last wkend, I flew back home to celebrate Mummy's and Edwin's birthdays. It was a big big surprise for Mama :) The look on her face when she saw me was INDESCRIABLE. Being a mother, the first thing she said was ,"OMG! Did something happen to you in HCM that makes you come home suddenly?" Heehee, it is just to surprise her and spend time with her :)

Agenda: To celebrate Mummy's and Brother's bdays
Duration: 830pm Friday till 12noon Sunday

I mmust attribute this to Bro's generous sponsorship :) Thanks!!

Edwin's 21st bday party was at Aquamarine @ Marina Mandarin. He invited the whole family plus his sch frens > a party of 20. As soon as everyone settled down, we began to 'attack' the food. When i say attack, i really mean it! Coz we were so hungry and could not resist the temptation of food...glorious glorious food~~

I was Edwin's PA, event organizer, planner, camera lady and even spokeswoman for the day. And i must say that my 'Client' is pleased with my A *** contribution :)

It was a great party > sumptous food, wonderful ambience, fantastic company and attentive service from the restaurant (who took care of our whims and needs).

Family gatherings are really enjoyable and fun. Its a great way to gather together and chit-chat, filling in each other on the details and happenings, to savour tasty food together. And most of all, I am sure the older generation would love to see their children, grandchildren be together (as we are often busy with our own daily lives).

Kinship is the most important in the world!
