A New Graduate!

Pictures from last year. He will be 7 years old this year ( on 31 Dec'10). Hazeeq, the +1 boy in my family - such a big boy now. To think that I took care of him when he was 4 months old...how times flies!He has even gone for Umrah in Mekah this year!

Tea Time!

A couple of weeks ago two of my sisters and their entourage (kids, in-laws,...) flew to London/Paris for a much deserved vacation.They did what I would have done - shop till you drop . Only thing off putting was the exchange rate. That's the tea I got to remind me that once a upon a time i too had a ball of a time there - a number of times actually! They also bought some tee shirts, key chain, half a snow ball of Shakespear's birthplace in 'Stratford - upon - Avon ' fridge magnet.The tees went to my boys and DIL. The rest to moi. Oh yes I also got a Harrod's tote.

NNC 3rd Anniversary Meet

Date ; 27 March '10
Venue : Sabariah's house in Setia Alam, Klang.

We had a blast during the anniversary exchange. There were door gifts for all of us. Nik won the special door - a book gift from Diane, USA. I received a pink and white beaded necklace from Janet for the anniversay exchange. She in turn received mine - blue crochet bag and a cross stich chart. Coincidence! The exchange of gifts were for those members of NNC who wanted to participate - no matter if they are not able to attend the meet. I also took the opportunity to give my blue pincushion exchange partner - Paul - his gift of a pincushion and 3 blue stashes. I received my blue pincushion gifts from Usha instead. See the big crocheted pin cushion adorned with beads. Lovely isn't it. Oh did I forget to mention. We all had to make a felt flower to be included in out anniversary gifts. You can see the flowers made by the members. Put together on Zarina' quilt, they look so pretty.

Wedding Door Gift

This the door gift which was given to guests at the wedding in Singgahsana Hotel. It is a blue glass adorned with some diamante. We put in some sweets into the glass container as extras.

Sorry the events don't seem to follow in order of date.

Malam Berinai - Henna Night - after the Akad Nikah (solemnization of marriage) & after Isya' prayers. Well the bride had already put the henna on her hands and feet a couple of days before this night. The night was celebrated and enjoyed by all with a small bersanding ceremony to bless the newly weds.

The Wedding Reception

Venue: Singgahsana Hotel, Petaling Jaya, Selangor
Date: 20 March'10

We spent 2 nights at the hotel The first nite was on the eve of my son's wedding so that we can wake up early and see to the final wedding preparations by the hotel's wedding planner.That meant 'not enough of beauty sleep' and more of jitters...HAppily things went quite smoothly. We all enjoyed and the guests were thoroughly happy about the food served.

The guests of honour were naturally the in-laws entourage from Jelai, Negeri Sembilan and the orpahns from baitul Izzah from Pinggiran Taman Tun Dr Ismail, Kuala Lumpur.

The usherers for the wedding were my nieces and nephews and close friends.




The wedding cake is a dummy cake. The newly weds were give a small cake at the side of the tiers to cut. Here you see the cake during the rehearsal at 10.00am on the day of the wedding.

Hazeeq Turns Six

Six years ago I baby-sat a 4 month old baby boy till he was 4 years old and whom I came to dote. On 31 December 2009, he turned 6 years old. His mum and dad threw a birthday party at the hall of the condo where I live. Also on 12 December 2009, Hazeeq underwent circumcision. He was very brave about it on the eve of his circumcision - not knowing the reality of the procedure. But ask him about it now and he will tell you that it was quite traumatic ( I was told he screamed throughout and had to be held by his dad and another person). Thank goodness it's over and done with. This year Hazeeq starts primary one. Here is a picture of his graduation at the religious school as a six year old.
