Reunion Dinner - Saturday 9th February

Have had several lunches and dinners with family and friends. We have kept to tradition - family reunion dinner of steam boat with our son and family - just the seven of us at their home - Villa Verde. Had a great time and we thank God we have children and grandchildren.

Come to think of it - for 15 years from 1983-1997, we did not have our family with us and we celebrated reunion dinner with friends in the evening. In fact in the Philippines and England, Chinese New Year, no holidays but normal working days for us.

When we first came home to retire the first few years we held the reunion dinner at our home at Hillview Park and my wife cooked the meal. Our son and family came to join us. Our daughter and family of course always go to their in-laws for reunion dinner according to tradition.

For the last few years, Stephen and Dolly have been hosting the dinner and we join them. There is a time for everything, a time to host and a time to just enjoy the fellowship  and meal.

God has been good and daily we thank Him for family and friends who mean to lot to us.
