Picking Up the Pieces

After my grandma's funeral, everyone is starting to get back on their feet and carry on with their lives. No Chinese New Year celebrations for us this year, but we did have many dinners together as a whole family - to the extent most of us caught a bad case of food poisoining. Well... At least we got closer, and bonded quite alot.

As I was saying before, one of the comforting outcome of my grandmothers funeral was that she brought back all the grandchildren scattered around the world. So, the grandchildren decided and organised a full family photoshoot on Chinese New Year eve.

Rare opportunity it was, who knows when we'll all be together again?
