This year is the first time... I invited "someone" to my BIG FAMILY New Year party but also the first time... I I'm not there @ the party on 00.00 am.... i missed the "toast".... hiqs...hiqs...
Well.... i did showed up @ the party... at 08.00 pm (too early...) there's only about 15 ppl there... i mingled n introduced Bie to everyone, whose looking at me like... "aaaaaa..... who's this fella? ::wink wink::" hehehe... Families keep on coming ... uncles, aunties, cousins n cousins in law,nephews, nieces.... more or less :70 ppl. The room filled with children screaming... running around... crowdy!!! We kissed one another's cheek to say "Hello" or "Merry Christmas" for those we hvnt met bfore. Guessed it was kinda uncomfortable for poor Bie... he was giving me the "amazed...confused...look" never seen a BIG Manado family like mine.... ?? :p
Gathered everyone to say a prayer of thanksgiving to our Lord, and blessed our wonderful dinner.... and then.... we went... "buas"... wakkakaak.... :D the buffet: Every year menu "Bistik Lidah ala Mba Rona", french fries, "B2 panggang", fruit salad, Ayam Kodok, Macaroni Schootel, Kroket, Pie, Peach Pudding, Chocolate Pudding, 2 kinds of Punch, Es Doger.... successfuly entered our tank... huehehehe.... :p yummy
Then it's Games Time, every year we made all kinds of games for children, teenager, young couples, and parents.... it was always hilarious! Back when Granpa & Grandma still alive... there's even a Toaster or Rice Cooker or Compo for Door Prizes.... what a family... we sure like to party.... hehehehe.... After games, usualy we do the Count Down... open a Champagne bottle, distribute em in small glasses (note: for kids, Sprite only.. sorry :D) and then do a toast at exactly... 00.00!! blow the trumpet... and again.... kiss everyone's cheek to say "HAPPY NEW YEAR" :::I love this family tradition:::
but... as i say... i missed that part this year.. have another duty... accompanied Bie to his own occasion with friends so we left at 10.00 pm, while games were running... and attended another New Year Party (near that area), Barbeque party... so.... i ate again???? :D ehhehe.... yea.... still managed to put 1 baked potatos, 2 prawns, and 1 sausage!! :::u go gurl::: 00.00 ..... passed by.... we threw fireworks .... congrats Yerry... oh yeah Yerry's bday is 1st january... :) ::what a great day to be born:: I kinda miss "the toast" ....but this one turned out FUN also... :)
home at 03.00 am ... went straight to bed.... Oh man.... i LOVE my bed!!!!
::::: HAPPY NEW YEAR AIRA :::::: have a fabulous year ahead!!!
