House of Dumplings (updated)

After 2 years, we have finally gotten our keys to our new house in Tanamera. Our new house is a 2 1/2 storey courtyard home, with some land attached. The kids should love that.

And since it is a gated community, we should be in a safer environment.

The kids will also have their own rooms, and so will Yanti. Another thing the kids, especially Joshua, will love is the swimming pool less than a hundred yards away.


There is also a guest rooms for visitors, which will also double as a home-office cum AV room.

Here are some more pictures of our house now.

"Red dumplings" (ang pows)

Gong Xi Fa Cai! This year CNY was spent a little differently for us. We spent a lot more time at home and had more people visit us than before.

We also has a lion dance with firecrackers!

We started with the CNY eve dinner. Grandma spent the evening with us for the first time in many years.

We had a sumptuous spread!

The next morning the little ones were dressed appropriately for their angpows.

Then came the lions who performed an exciting dance for all those present.

I must say that we certainly got into the festive mood bright and early this year!
