UP NORTH (again)

The end of June saw us travel up North again on short notice, when Kevin's grandma passed away...

There were 5 days of mourning in total... and it was also a time for family to see each other again...

It ended with the funeral procession on the last day... before laying Kevin's Poh Poh to rest at the cemetery...

Then, Agnes and the kids stayed on in Ipoh while Kevin went back to work in KL.

Jacynth enjoyed helping her Poh Poh with the vegetables

The kids ate guava from the garden

Watched Kung Kung water the plants

Climbed the grill door

and learned cooking from her Poh Poh

Line dancing with Poh Poh and Kung Kung

Agnes and the kids also attended Agnes' school teacher, Mrs Choo's 70th birthday in Ipoh

Comings and Goings...

Almost three months ago, we said farewell to Joash and Su Chen who were moving to Jakarta. You will know that this is a stale post because they have since returned home.

Kat and Agnes went shopping with the kids...

Daddies joined for dinner after work...

We stayed over at Kevin's aunty's place in PJ...

...before heading to Penang for Adrian and Chew Ching's wedding.

Jacynth performed gruesome dismemberments of Kevin's old Lego people...

Swimming at the pool downstairs of Kevin's parents' condo

Celebrating Fathers' Day in Kevin's home church, Jelutong Methodish Church

Kevin's mum made some yummy custard puffs...

... which Jacynth sat quietly and devoured

Agnes went shopping with two expectant mothers. One has since given birth (again, just to show how outdated these photos are)!

Jacynth attended the Vacation Bible School (VBS) in church from the 30th of May to the 1st of June. She was the youngest amongst all the world travellers. The children went to 3 different countries in 3 days and had some really awesome experiences singing, learning, playing, crafting and eating!
