Chinese New Year 2013

I was initially thinking of skipping a post on CNY 2013 since I didn't take many photos. But finally decided to just post whatever I have  :)

 

Note to self  :   1) Take more photos next time   2) Take photos of Elyssa & Erin with their angpows or some other things that signify CNY.

 

So, a quick rundown of CNY 2013:  

 

BBQ with my in-laws at our home the day before CNY eve

Yummy garlic prawns!

 

 

CNY eve lunch at my MIL's place

Totally didn't take a single photo. Aiks.

 

 

 

CNY eve dinner at my parents place

Lou-Sang time!!

 

 

Kids enjoying my mum's homemade yee sang.(err... actually in Elyssa's case, she only liked the biscuits in the yee sang)  

Went "kai-kai" in shopping mall a few times
I still get the warm fuzzy feeling when I see the girls walking hand-in-hand like that.  

 

 

I cooked a meal for lunch with some friends

No big deal for some, but for me, it WAS!  First time I cooked a proper sit-down meal like that. Pretty happy and proud of myself. Haha. 

 

 

Brought both girls to the playground 2 days in a row

 

 

 

Made a few half-hearted attempts to take photos of 2 smiling girls

I gave up! Erin was trying to push jie jie away in the photo.

 

 

  

Went for neighbourhood CNY celebration

I knew they were going to distribute angpows but I expected RM2 in each. Was pleasantly surprised there was RM5 inside. Yay!! Our family unit pocketed 4 angpows - 2 each for the kids, 1 for me (for wearing red) and 1 for hubby (who blur-blur went to take although he didn't qualify for the categories announced for the leftover angpows - senior citizens, white hair and those wearing red). He he he.. 

So free food, free performance and RM20. Not bad!
