Alpha and Omega

Before any big party, there is always tons to do.

This year, as I wasn't hosting any, I didn't really do that much. I just helepd to lay out the glasses, plates and cutlery, and chopped some veges for the salad.

I enjoyed participating in the unfolding of the party's 'grand opening' though, through the eyes of my camera lens :)

The weather was lovely, and the colours of the set-up really brought in a festive mood.

At the end of the party, there was the annual communual cleaning up among the immediate family. We bonded through the washing, drying, and sorting out the cutlery :)
