I have mentioned before that my hubby’s family is a HUGE family. He has 11 siblings; all married except one. So when everyone comes home for CNY, even our 7 rooms kampung house is not big enough to accommodate everyone.
This year they pitched 2 tents; one on the verandah and another beside our durian tree and my children and I sleep over at my parent’s house so that the ladies can use our room; 3 young ladies slept on our king size bed, and 2 of our single bed is occupied by hubby’s eldest and 2nd sister.

We also make more benches this year so that all of us can hang out outdoor to enjoy the cool breeze at night and also early in the morning.

Removing the existing bench made of coconut trunk to make way for bigger and wider bench.

More pictures and updates later today…




Wuah, really happening your CNY preparations! Happy Chinese New Year to you & your family!
