Happy Fasting Everyone!


I just want to wish Ramadhan Al Mubarak to everyone who is observing this holy month. I will try my best to fast this year. I've been learning about this holy month for a couple of years at school now so this year, I'm going to try to actually fast. 

Wish me luck! :)

We're helping Mommy to prepare food for Iftar tonight :)

2 Weddings and A Waterfall

One of Dadda's cousins got married to someone from Malacca, the historic state, situated between Negeri Sembilan and Johor recently. It's about 2 hours drive away from KL so we decided to attend the ceremony.

I didn't go to school that Friday, 15th June. Mommy went to work for a while and at around 3pm, after Dadda came back from Friday prayers we headed to Malacca, just the 4 of us - Dadda, Mommy, Idzhar and I. 

Papa, Mama and Che Ah were already there so we went straight to the bungalow Papa had rented for the night. After Maghrib prayers, we got ready to go to the bride's house for the Solemnisation ceremony.  


The day after was the big celebration day where the actual reception was held at the same place. This time, everybody from the PJ clan was there to celebrate.

After the wedding, we thought of going around the Malacca town for some sightseeing but everyone else was already tired. They then went straight back to KL so Dadda and Mommy decided to drive a little further down to Adida's home in Muar, Johor.

Once we arrived at Adida's, Dadda rested for a wee while and we then drove to the park by the sea where Idzhar and I played for a while at the playground. Adida's cousin, Aunty Ina and her kids joined us too.



Idzhar enjoying himself. He loved the slides.

Mommy decided to join me on the swings.

And then it was time to leave...

We then called Daddy, Adida's father to join us for dinner, along with Adida's aunt and her kids. We had a popular dish called Asam Pedas. I also loved the fried fish.






The next morning, Mommy woke Idzhar and I up really early. She told us that we were going to go for a picnic. So, I woke up and got ready excitedly. It took us about 45 minutes to reach the place Mommy mentioned. It's called Hutan Lipur Gunung Ledang. We brought along some food with us and found a spot to spread our mat and relax.


After some light snack, into the water we went...

After that, we had Nasi Lemak Adida bought earlier before we headed back to Adida's home and then after packing, drove back to KL - but, of course not without making a pit stop at Nek Wan's house for dinner.

Oh, I almost forgot. Happy Father's Day Dadda, Tok Babah, Papa and Daddy! :) 
Since we were away on Father's Day, we had our Father's day dinner with Tok Abah and Tok Mama the day after we came back.




Now on to the 2nd wedding the weekend after. This was a really hectic one. 

It was the wedding of Aunty Alia, our next door neighbour in Subang Jaya. Mommy, Pak Su, Aunty Alia, her brother; Uncle Ashraf and sister; Aunty Ayu grew up together. 

It started on Thursday night when Mommy and I went for the Bersiram ceremony at their home, next door to Tok Abah's house in Subang Jaya.


The next day, Mommy picked me up early from school to go straight to their solemnisation ceremony at Masjid Darul Ehsan, Subang Jaya; after the Friday prayers.




The day after, Saturday, 23rd June, the reception for the Bride's side of the family was held in Putrajaya. The theme was Siver/Grey, although I turned up in black with silver beadings because I've outgrown my silver Baju Kurung.

And on Sunday, the reception for the Groom's side was held at Dewan Gemilang, Kelana Jaya. This time, the theme for the guests was Gold/Brown while the bride and groom donned a traditional blue outfit.

I'm pretty sure I'll be attending more weddings soon so this doesn't end here. Will keep you updated in my next posts. 

In the meantime, I will try and keep my next few posts short and simple, ok? hehe... :)

Make sure you read this too!
