The Christmas holidays were spent in our kampung home. Its been more than 3 weeks we were away and the grasses and weeds were happily climbing and weaving in and out. So were the others, including the potted and non-potted flowers and plants around the laman Tg Rimau. 

We had a lovely surprise. Our eldest son with his wife and lovely twin boys dropped in to stay overnight.  Both the boys were taken to visit Atok's barber to get a haircut.
