Eve of Deepavali with the Jayaretnams and Goes'

12th November 2012, Monday

It’s part of our family tradition to spend Deepavali eve together . We normally go over to our parents’ place around 7ish to perform some prayers and exchange presents. And then, we hang out , make some noise, chit chat, burn some fireworks (mostly safe), play card games, watch TV, eat again, munch on cookies and enjoy each other’s company.

The special thing about this year’s eve? Celebrating it with Kaela, our daughter. Still sounds unreal that we have a daughter.

We also had some VIP guests from Holland, Mr Bert Goes and Mrs Truus Goes.

Here are some photos that’ll do all the talking.

Vader extremely happy with his present

My gift for Ruben, a cool shirt!

We’re so happy to share our tradition and culture with Vader and Moeder. Now they have an idea how we celebrate our festivities.

It was a cheerful night. A night to remember.
