some views





























abah always fascinated with breathtaking scenery photos he saw in the travel magazines. he always wanted to take such wonderful pictures with his camera. he was so inspired by these creative & brilliant photographers. "no harm trying" abah said. so here is his so called creative & quality works. enjoy!

aisyah & the 4 km walk
















umi has been asking abah for so many time, that she wanted us to brisk walk from our house to the entrance junction to our housing area. it is about 2km - one way. since abah feel like to sweat out a bit that sunday, so abah said okay. but aisyah? luckily she agreed to tag along, excitedly. abah was not convinced that the 3 of us can make it to the farthest point, coz aisyah will be the dragging factor. "anyway, we can always turn back at any place when she started to feel tired," abah thought to himself. to our surprise aisyah managed to walk with us for the whole 4km (returned trip). she only started complaining at the last 500m that she was thirsty & exhausted. we dropped by at the nearby mini market & treat her with anything she wanted. she just took a bottle of mineral water, a packet of nuts & candies of course. well, never underestimated our kidz capability. they might do wonders.

attending 'kenduri'











the kidz have attended many functions, be it school related or family events. the recent was their cousin's kenduri aqiqah. it's their uncle ayip & aunt shireen's youngest son ~ mikail danial. we decided to go wearing blue baju melayu & baju kurung. aisyah was not feeling well that day. many grannys, uncles and cousins were there. it was a very, very hot afternoon. food were plentiful and lamb chop the main attraction. i noticed haziq helped himself with the lambs many times. hey, it's not everyday you can treat yourself to lamb chops in generous serving. aisyah was only nibbling rice and cakes. but the lemonade was top of the order. it was at this kind of gathering that we can meet with all the family related people. the next time (who knows when), may be our nieces would not recognise us anymore...kidz, they grow very fast.

homestay - a countryside life
























































the kidz were given a chance to feel a different lifestyle from which they always had. we took them to a homestay programme at Sg. Hj. Dorani in Sg. Besar ( along coastal road north of Selangor, almost to Bagan Datuk in South of Perak ). at first, they thought it's gonna be a boring weekend activity but we proof them wrong. both of them were having a helluva time especially 'mini' fishing. Never mind if it's only along the water irrigation for the padi field (sawah). they still managed to catch a few 'cutie' size fish, not bad for a starter. they enjoyed processing rice from raw padi traditional way, coloring batik, enjoy kampung food (faboulicious), went to fish market (the fishes were fresh), shopping in the off-urban town & many more. these are things that we want them to experience & they really enjoyed it.
