A family celebration night in Lumut

2nd January 2011

Last night, we had a great time with daddy's side of our family. It was our first family gathering this year and it was held at a cafe in Lumut, close to NiniBoy and NiniGal's home. The information given to us was that it was for a doa selamat or thanksgiving in celebration of Mama Usu being conferred a Masters Degree recently. As it turned out, it was also a celebration of Babu Liza & Mama Usu's belated birthdays and a 4th wedding anniversary of the Warya Family couple.

After reciting our prayers and a cake-cutting session, we had a barbeque dinner. In between, we also had some fun playing and dancing to some music. The night also saw the usual singers in our family singing their hearts out, including bungsu Diana who seldom sings (in front of us, that is... hehehe...).

Before heading home, there was a photo session time for us, the 9 cousins. Unfortunately, Syahmi was not really in the mood for smiles.

To our delight, we were all given souvenirs from Mama Usu, NiniBoy & NiniGal from their recent trip to the UK to attend Mama Usu's graduation ceremony in Keele. There was a present for everyone; a tie for daddy, a handbag for mummy and clothes for us three.

In addition to that, Safiya also received her belated birthday present from NiniBoy & NiniGal since they were not able to attend Safiya's birthday party last month.

Thank you NiniBoy, NiniGal, Warya Family and Mama Usu for the lovely night. To Babu Liza & Mama Usu, happy belated birthday for the both of you. Not to forget, happy wedding anniversary to Babu Liza & Uncle Zam. And especially for Mama Usu, congratulations on your graduation and we hope that your career will kick off soon.

Let's all hope that 2011 will bring us more happiness, and we are also looking forward to welcoming a new cousin in April and hopefully another one in July. Who knows, there might be another cousin by the end of this year? Hehehe...!
