CNY 2009 - Year of the Ox (Moo!!!)

Saturday, 24 Jan 2009 - 2 days before the first day of the Lunar New Year, those of us that did not return to our birth countries to celebrate the festivities with our family, gathered to celebrate it with friends in our adopted country.

12 of us came together at our place to have a steamboat reunion dinner to usher in the new Moo Moo year.



We also took the opportunity to have a surprise belated birthday mini celebration for Rey...
















And after the food, we worked it off with our current favourite activity - Wii...














The action continued till past midnight (as usual....) but it was fun....

May the Year of the Ox bring back bull markets, prosperity for everyone, health and smooth journey in everything we do.....

Happy Chinese New Year!!!

The Perils of Wii...


Saturday, 17 Jan 2009 - After we have had enough of Wellington Point, we proceeded back to Brisbane and rejoined at Haw's place for reunion barbeque with Roger and a little Wii action.

After the food, we gathered at the lounge and we took to challenge each other in turns for a piece of the action on ...

Wii!!!!













First up to go, the guys ....















Then the girls...













The only person that didn't get a piece of the action is.....

Little Megan.... look how bored she is.... but she was good... she sat there and watched us play, occassionally playing with the No-ho-hons...




Things got so heated and the competition was so fierce that people started to get hurt! David whacked Haw on his right arm and within 10 minutes, Haw took his revenge. Not on David, but on Peter's bum! (for all these in real life action, go to my facebook and view the videos!!!)


















Roger: REF!!! That was clearly out!!! I wanna challenge!!!
