Picnic and BBQ @ Port Dickson 9 Jul 2016

Today is a Saturday and the continuation of the Hari Raya Puasa holidays. Alvin decided to go to Port Dickson for a BBQ picnic.

We drove to Port Dickson around 8.00am and reached at Pantai Teluk Kemang about 9.30am. We just found and parked our car at the same spot which near to the toilets, exactly as last year when we were here.

We bought some chicken wings, sausages, sweet corns, fish, squids, and some seasoning ingredients for the BBQ. We bought the drinks too, besides the BBQ pit and charcoal for this occasion.

Alvin sited up the BBQ stand ready for our picnic. This time we did not allow the children go for swimming as Alvin and I have to BBQ and cannot go and watch over both of them if they were going for swimming.

We just BBQ and enjoyed the sea breeze and the food we brought at the picnic. There were a lot of people picnic at the beach too. It was really a nice and beautiful day for family outing.

Breakfast @ Levain Boulangerie Patisserie 6 Jul 2016

IMG_7637Today is Hari Raya Aidilfitri and it is a holiday. We decided to bring the kids to the Popular Book Fest at Kuala Lumpur Convention Center. I feel happy as now Issac is started to like reading books.

We woke up early and thinking of driving down to KL to have the delicious and famous Yuk Kee’s breakfast, unfortunately the place was so crowded and people were queuing just for a table and the queue was long until outside of the shop.

We just change our original plan and go to Levain Boulangerie Patisserie at Jalan Delima. I was long heard about this place for the good and nice pastries, breads and eateries.

IMG_7636We ordered hot items from their menu, and take only a tuna spinach quiche, together with fruit juices. The quiche is delicious!

For all the hot items, egg benedicts, big breakfast and sandwiches from the breakfast menu were not so nice! Personally, I feel disappointed on the food as I thought it is over rated.

Well, this does not spoilt our morning. The kids just having great time together with us!

A Normal Saturday 2 Jul 2016

It was another regular Saturday which the children went to their art class at Citta Mall. So happened that it was nearly the season of Hari Raya Puasa, thus the mall decoration was up.

IMG_7613

It was a typical train station whereby most of the Malays or Muslims would take a train going back to their home town. It was creative for the mall decorator to put up this warm deco.

IMG_7614

After the art class, our family have been invited to Brother Lynard and Sister Sheryl home for dinner. Sister Jennifer and Miguel were there too. We had a great time at their house!

I Love the Book of Mormon! 2 Jul 2016

Frankly... I have not yet finish reading the Book of Mormon, I am almost finishing the Mosiah and eagerly wants to enter the Alma.

I know I am a bit slow... Every time I would search the scripture, cross reference and ponder why or what the Lord wants to tell me about this scripture or chapter. And the truth is : The more I read...the more I ponder...the more the Spirit testify to me that the Book of Mormon is the words of God.

I can feel the Spirit so strong and I thank Heavenly Father and Savior for the knowledge that They give to me to know this.

I always think that, "I am not yet enter Alma, and I already feel the Spirit.. What if I have read it finish? My testimony will grow even stronger ?"

This bishop in the video share, testify exactly the same feelings that I have experienced!

And, I love the Book of Mormon!

Moroni 10:4-5
"And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost."

"And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things."

Our family really feel the Lord's love to us.. The spirit was so strong that both of us shed tears of joy...

"Our Father has a family.
It's me! It's you! All others too!
We are His children.

He sent each one of us to earth,
through birth,
To live and learn here in families.

God gave us families,
to help us become
what He wants us to be -

This is how He shares His love,
for the Family is of God."

"If you cannot say you know God is there, you can hope He is. You can desire to believe. That is enough to start.
Then acting on that hope, reach out to Heavenly Father. God will extend His love toward you, and His work of rescue and transformation will begin."
~ President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

With that little hope turn to a little faith...
Over time, we can recognize His hand in our life. We can feel His love through sending many friends, family members into our life...
And help to putting back the broken puzzles back together. Piece by piece, falling at its right place and at the right time.
The puzzle have became a complete family portrait, till the day He lead our family to His Church.

Here we are, in this place again for our R.O.M. We still can remember vividly the Registrar lady together with our true friends were happy for us. This photo was taken at the JPN Shah Alam...

Missionary in Our Life

Dear Elder Samuel Jones,

DSC00492I was busy sorting out our family photos and found this photo of you. I think it is a memorable one...It was dated Nov 4, 2014.

If I am not mistaken, this was your first meal after you touched down Malaysia. Elder Jonny Stratfold fetched you all the way from KLIA to the Summit USJ Mall and our family had dinner together with both of you.

It was a spicy tom yam fried udon that we recommended to you, as you told us that you kind of like spicy food!

Our family were enjoying both of your teaching during your service at Subang Jaya branch...

Till we meet again... :)
