Diwali Day - More Laughter, More Fun

The next day, even though we were all so tired from the big celebration before, we still kept the festive spirit going. We continued the fun with good company, lots of chit-chat, and some friendly Nintendo challenges that brought out everyone’s competitive side.

It was relaxed, cozy, and full of laughter — the perfect way to wrap up a beautiful festive weekend.

Diwali Birthday Double Dhamaka

This year, we decided to celebrate Diwali together with my daughter, Perleen’s birthday since her big day fell just one day before the festival. It felt special combining both occasions, and honestly, it made the whole celebration even more meaningful.

Last year’s Diwali was unforgettable — I took the kids on a train ride all the way to Kangar, Perlis. It was such an adventure! A proper Bhoot Diwali story that I should really write about someday to keep those memories alive.

But this year… this year we had a proper DHAMAKA.

We made cookies together — which of course ended in flour everywhere but also lots of laughter. We had games, excitement, and a house full of cheerful chaos.

We also had our family, relatives, friends, work friends, and even the kids’ school friends join us. The house was bursting with joy, noise, and so much love — just the way Diwali should feel. We even catered food, so no stress… just good vibes and great food.

And then came the highlight — the birthday cake for our little Perleen, surrounded by family and friends, candles, and big smiles. Her cake had an accident, Rumi was on fire!!! More drama... but the Demon Hunters rocked!!!

Delicious Cake by Kul Cakes.

Kids also enjoyed the party games. Thank you to my sister, Jusprith to help in that!

Mummies also know how to party ok...

Most importantly, thank God it didn’t rain. Waheguru truly blessed us with a beautiful day filled with light, warmth, and togetherness. After the crowd subsided, the kids continued on playing fireworks.

A celebration of Diwali, a celebration of life, and a celebration of our sweet girl growing another year older — truly, a day to remember.

Welcome 2011

It's a new year and there calls for major changes. It was about time for a change in my life. My year started of jobless - pretty interesting. I had to focus on my brother's wedding while looking for another job. Well the looking for a job wasn't so difficult, and the brother's wedding was the agenda that ripped of the whole month of my life.

Seriously, one whole month, where did it go, I wasn't going to work, I was mostly at home. I can't believe it myself, one whole month has vanished and passed by. Though I must say I enjoyed the wedding fully.

I'll make sure to post the links for all the pictures and video for my brother's wedding here. From the maiyan, sangeet, wedding, prayer and until the dinner, everything was fabulous. And since my brother is a professional photographer, he had so many friends taking pictures as they are all professional photographers.

That's something I could blog about some day too.... Advertising my brothers phography skills... =)

Ok January passed and Chinese New Year was my break or in other words, time to recover from wedding... he he he... Then 8th of February 2011 came.... back to work...new job, new friends, new environment... YIPPIE!!!
