Anniversary of my Grandpa's death

It was one of the earliest entries I've wrote ever since I started the blog and by a blink of an eye, it was the anniversary of my grandfather's death.

It was pretty much a reunion where

The three evil musketeers united..
hehe

My brother and his wife gave birth to a healthy baby boy.. :p

Just kidding..
That baby was a new addition to my uncle's family..
Here's my aunt and the baby's brother, Jenson....

Along with my cheeky cousin Julia and sister, Jade!!!

So basically in Chinese culture, we first place our offering of food on the altar..

And then call out to our grandpa to come and 'dine' the food that we brought..

After that, we pray..

Light candles to light the way and path of our grandfather's

Burn paper money with the believe that our grandpa in the other world can use the money to buy what he wants :)

As we wait for others to finish this steps.. we of course took some pictures!

Here's my siblings, from irritating sister who doesn't 'love' me.. wuwu Jade from left to my brother who loves me unconditionally Julius to me, the ever ADORABLE UN-irritating sister who uh.. does all the housework!! haha :p

And here's something err.. weird when I was washing my hands..


Closer look...
"This basin is ONLY for washing fruits and hands. Please DO NOT clean your child or let them pee-pee here. Thank you for your cooperation"
My first thought was : OMG.. someone actually let their child pee in the basin!
ewwwwwwwwwwwww................

Owh and then we visited our great grandmother in the temple too..

That's my great grandmother circled in yellow between all the other "happening" older generation

By 2 hours or so, everyone was set to go home and of course, even though it was a brief family reunion of our family tree,

It was indeed a memorable one!
Love you all!
