Yearly, we will follow the tradition of
visitation and after the kiddos greeted my mum and us, we prepared them for a
long day today. Our first stop is non other than my cousin’s place for lunch
and we always look forward to a sumptuous meal prepared by her. This year, we were
happy to have Rosana to join us as we were not visiting Gujiong due to his
recent passing on.
Rosana has been our Gujiong’s helper for many
years and now that he has returned to the Lord, she will be returning to her home
town probably in April. As such, this would be her last CNY in Singapore. I will
be missing her cooking too as she whipped up some pretty good dishes every time
when we visit Gujiong’s place for dinner.
After our delicious luncheon, we never fail to
take a family picture for keepsake reasons and it is always good to take family
picture on CNY where you get to meet all your relatives in one day. We are happy
and blessed that our family are still closed and we hope our younger
generations will continue this tradition.
My family left to visit hubby’s aunt’s place as
our second destination. We arrived at Bishan and saw many relatives already
arrived and taking lunch. The kiddos were happy to meet their grandparents,
aunties and uncles and most loved was their cousins. They did not waste a bit
of time and dashed out to play almost immediately after greeting everyone in
the function room.
The weather was scorching hot and the kids came
back to the room after 10 minutes of outdoor play sweating and can’t wait to
quench their thirst with water. At one point, the kiddos were asking if they
can remove their dresses and have a dip in the pool!! Geezzzz….
Our final visitation was at our own neighborhood.
We reached home and took a short rest before we went over to our neighbor’s
place which is just next door. They were really nice to invite us over for finger
food and wine to catch up. We were really blessed to have wonderful neighbors which
we considered our new neighborhood.
Gong Xi Fa Cai everyone!
