Tanglung Festival

Last Sunday we had a mini family gathering at my house. Nothing extravanganza, we merely had a simple dinner and then went to the poolside to play "tanglung". Well, our intention was to let
Bb-G carried the lantern while walking around, ended up, she prefered to play in the playground!

Well, before uncle TH and wife reached my place, Bb-G's hand was scalded with hot water. She had been playing with my drinking water dispenser everyday. I warned her many many times, DO NOT PLAY WITH THE MACHINE, but she wouldn't care to listen to me. Finally, on that day, when I just pressed the hot water button, her tiny hand quickly dashed into the dispenser hole, and the hot water gushed down onto her hand... The next thing I heard was CRRRRRYYYYYYYYY!!!!!

Applied large amount of soothing cream to calm her burning skin.
















Anyway, after a while she forgotten her pain, especially Uncle TH came and played together with her. (Uncle TH wearing Bb-'s pink sunshade, cute huh)




















Our dinner - mainly roast chicken + roast pork and some vege. Bb-G could even take her spoon with her injured hand
















After dinner, we went down to the poolside. Was surprised to see many families and kids were around playing with lanterns and candles. Bb-G showed no interest with the paper lantern. She'd got Papa-M and Uncle TH to play with her in the playground instead....tsk tsk tsk...

The 3 ladies here took turn to carry the lanterns.

Soon it was close to 10pm. Every family went back except  us. Bb-G had the playground on her own and she refused to go back home. We had to drag her home.  Back at home, again,  she refused to sleep , I think she was overly happy and excited,  even pretended to sleep in my clothes basket...adoi......
