BBQ

Had our BBQ last weekend. It’s a gathering with a special mission - My mum took the opportunity to announce to all my aunts about our wedding.. Hee...

Side-track a lil from our wedding dos & donts44 In the end we didn’t get to swim but still got half wet.. tatz rite. Perhaps the sky thought we would be very hot having BBQ in day time & had decided to bestow us a very, very heavy downpour. Like any other BBQ pits there’s no shelter, so my BIL rushed to buy a big canvas... But before he made it back, the storm reached us first. You could imagine the sight then.. it’s so funny! The heavy rain caused us to disperse into 3 groups - 1) my SIL & I sacrificed ourselves to protect the newly-set fire.. our front so hot whereas the rear was soaked with rain water... haha! 2) the rest with the kids stuck at a miserable small shelter without umbrella. 3) my parents retreated to home.
Soon my BIL came to our rescue but it's then a tough task to put up the canvas in the rain. At 1st I was very fed up with the rain which caused so much trouble to our BBQ time... but later felt real touched to see that we were so united & every1 had a fortress to defend. In the midst all of us kept laughing & my cute SIL even shouted aloud that it’s so fun! Needless to talk about the 4 kids. Hee....

After the hard work from my whole family, the aunts & cousins who arrived later got to enjoy the cool weather & good food (seasoned with rain water??) by the pool.

Though the heavy rain caused some hiccups in our BBQ 'work', we took it as a kinda experience we don’t get (or want?) to have in normal days.
