Chuang Family Reunion Dinner @ 24 Jan Sat

When I first got married into the Chuang family, reunion dinner was never on the eve of CNY, which suits me ok cos my family can only have it on eve cos my mother runs a mkt stall. Chuang reunion is more dependent on Dany's schedule cos he is an air steward with SIA. However, there was a time where my MIL casually mentioned that although she has 3 sons, but eve of CNY is always so quiet & lonely!! oops so for last year, we rushed & have dinner on eve. But this year, Dany's schedule only permits this Sat. Ok enough of history.... we went for more marketing on Sat morning, the mkt was crowded!! We got home & started preparing in the afternoon. My MIL was the main chef, she always cook up a storm!! Dont believe, take a peek at our spread (enough to feed an army!). There's salted chicken, veg, herbal prawn, steamed fish, sweet sour pork, must have braised mushroom with pig trotter + sea cucumber + dried oyster + ai choi. The children had theirs at the small table, they ate well & asked for more of the dishes!! The adults tucked in once the kids are settle. Dany's MIL came & joined us this yr. The elders of the family!!

The three Chuang brothers in order of seniority!!

The brothers & wives (too bad Michelle is out-stationed & cant be back to join us)

After dinner, the children went down to the void deck for SPARKLES!! Big brother is distributing the sparkles to everyone. All gathered together to get the sparks going BUT the wind is too strong.... Nimrod has to hid in a corner but look at his hair!!Finally.... Jac took some nice pic of the kids writing & making patterns with their sparkles!!
