Days in Masjid Tanah Melaka~24/5/2013

Last Thursday, our family on hubby's side went to Malacca to celebrate his cousin's wedding. I've been there twice before & this was my 3rd trip. Grandma's house is in Lubok China while his cousin's place (who stays with parents) is in Masjid Tanah.

We were off from KL at about 10pm after having dinner together at a tandoori stall where we all ate like crazy and his papa had to pay for everything. Kesian papa, so bad of us.. Hope we can all give treats to papa some time.. It was not a boring journey for me, while his youngest brother was asleep at the backseat of my car, me and hubby talked a lot and didnt realize we were almost there.

Later that night, it was my very 1st time sleeping over at his grannie's house and we all had a night together, a one big family at the hall. I dont have a kampung and it feels special to have one now. However, I was very scared at night, but it was so funny when hubby and his youngest brother teased us with ghost sounds and scary stories, we all giggled and laughed. As I was about to fall asleep, I heard thudding sounds on the wooden floor we were lying on and I was so scared I laid close to hubby. I was confident it wasn't a sound made from his brother as it was already late and we all went silence after some time,I assumed everyone was finally asleep but the next morning I figured out it was his brother, alright.

The marriage official pronouncement started at 3.30pm the following day and we all finally had the chance to celebrate the event. While the pronouncement was made, I felt moved & hold back my tears as it reminded me of my own solemnization day. The bride didnt even shed one tear though. How tough she is, unlike me. We ate tasty foods, laughed and talked a lot, I had a nice time.

We began our journey back to KL at 10pm last night but this time it was only me & hubby. Hubby has to work today and we had to return back to KL & didnt manage to attend the wedding reception which was today. However, it was still a nice get-together time, but unfortunately it still felt incomplete without his sister around. She was working this weekend, too bad, it would be much nicer if she was around ..

Spending my time with his family feels really great. I never had the chance to feel this special big family trip. Looking forward to have a nice holiday with the family some time around this year! xoxo
