Buckled up! This is a super-photo Ssss post….
This is what we went through before Chinese New Year arrives on Monday.
Make a lantern to add to the decorations in my Parents-in-law’s house
Enjoy the lovely sights everywhere
I could have showed you a few more photos with my boys in them, but those photos were in Allan’s previous phone, which has been traded-in for his new Song Ericsson W902, few days ago, remember? I don’t have a memory-card reader to extract the photos kept in it. *sigh*
Or you can see more over on Uniquely Singapore
Enjoy lots of Dragon and Lion Dances
Decorating our house
(though this year is the Year of the Cow/Ox, we still prefer to stick to our Mickey-Minnie Decorations from last year : Rat-year)
Lots of Shopping
Glorious Food, food, food…
Mandarin Oranges
Barbeque Sliced Pork (my favourite)
Preparing the Hong Bao(s) (Red packets with $$$ in them)
Remembering our Promise: Lion Puppets for the kids
Getting New Clothes and Bed Sheets for kids and Shoes for me
( Didn’t ‘follow’ the tradition of getting a COMPLETELY New Outfit : from head to toe, this year. It is believed that ‘Everything’ that ‘touches’ or ‘worn’ on the body must be new : symbolizes a New Beginning ~ Fresh Start to everything)
Chinese New Year is just 3 days away… I’m glad we prepared the above much earlier this year…. it feels so relax to be free from last minute preparations and the ‘last-minute-crowds’…. just lazing around as we wait for the 15-days-long of celebration to come.
This year’s CNY post is so much shorter than last year’s. I guess I’m becoming lazier less ‘long-winded’…*laugh*
