Ak. Syahmi & Rafidah

Going to weddings mean you get to see stunning styles of bridal outfits. CQ loves to see the detailed designs on bridal outfits and also the bride's headgear.

CQ's nephew - Ak. Syahmi tied the knot with lovely Rafidah just a week ago at the bride's home in Kampong Mulaut. Yesterday was the Bersanding and Ambil-ambilan ceremony.

Awww ... look at this lovebirds! Handsome Ak. Syahmi and gorgeous Rafidah were so absorbed 'lirik-liriking' at each other hehehe ...

When two hearts meet

Rain or no rain, when you are getting married, nothing can stop you =)

Just hours ago, CQ attended the majlis persandingan of Wan Hashida and Syed Abdul Jabbar in Sengkurong. It was raining quite heavily but the wedding ceremony was such a joyful one for both the blissfully wedded couple and their families.

Syed Abdul Jabbar & Wan Hashida

Love is like a butterfly. Beautiful Wan Hashida chose lanky and handsome Syed Abdul Jabbar to be her soul mate.

Bagai pinang di-belah dua, where they met, CQ has no idea hehee. CQ wish both of you a very happy and prosperous life together. May you be blessed with many tots in tow heheee ...

Family picnic

School holidays are almost ending and there had been many activities among families and friends to entertain their children with fun and adventures.

Being a public holiday today, the Arab-families had fun picnic at the Pantai Seri Kenangan Beach in Tutong. Plans had well been made weeks before. Each family had their own 'assignment' to make the picnic a success!

Ladyrider and family made an early journey to the Tutong beach to 'book' for a good pondok hehehe ...

While waiting, Ladyrider fried vegetable balls. Dressed in her 'wonder beach wear', Ladyrider stood out among us huhuhu ...

Mommy ~ Sharifah Hjh Maimunah also came to enjoy the sun and fun with her children and grandchildren.



When comes to food ...the spread is always never ending! BinAz is the chief chef for the day hehe.
