holiday

last weekend, my husband & i drove back to my hometown. well actually, this trip wasn't something we planned. i might not be able to go home for christmas, so i took the chance to visit my grandma from both side of my parents.

my husband never been to my father's village, so this trip was his introduction to where my dad spent his childhood(i'm not familiar either since my family live at my mom's village since my parents got married). But the most important part of it was, seeing my grandma, i hadn't met her since my engagement day. She live by herself now since my eldest aunt moved out to their new home(my grandpa passed away in an accident when i was still a toddler). i feel sad for her, she too old now to look after herself, anyway my other aunty live next door and checking on her everyday (Thank God!).

As ever, spending time at grandma's wouldn't be perfect without fresh coconut drink. Since nobody can climb the coconut tree, my husband did the honor plucking them using a very tall bamboo with a hook at the end (haha! he have no idea how to do it, but he handle it well, luv you darling!).

well, it was the highlite of our short holiday. part from it, we spent some time fishing (oldskool style haha!) and we have to satisfied with one small fish we caught. i had a very great time with my family (kakak, adek, abang(daddy ken), ken, awin, nana, my husband, mak, apak, makyang & pakyang)and aunts.
