Everyone would have a special moment with their own family,and I am not an exception.This is one of the special moments i have had with my family.
Last year,my family of four including me,my parents and my brother,went to the chalet,Costa Sands Resort, to celebrate my father's birthday.It was a three-days-two-nights stay and we enjoyed it thoroughly.
After one and a half days spent there,we went to the supermarket in the afternoon of the second day to buy some food like chicken wings and 'satays' for the barbecue we were having that night.Night finally came after we spent our afternoon with a round of shopping.We went to the barbecue pit at the chalet and started to set the fire with charcoal.After the flame was ready and hot enough,we started our barbecue.While waiting for the foods to be cooked,we chatted and laughed.We were a very happy family.
"Happy Birthday To You...."as we sang the birthday song to my father.After each of us planted a kiss on his cheek,we began eating the cake.I had cream all over my mouth and all of us laughed together.We decided to save part of the cake for breakfast tomorrow and went back into the chalet to put it back.By this time,the foods were ready.Drooling,we filled our mouth with delicious foods as if we have never eaten before.My brother,who has a huge appetite,almost choked as he was trying to swallow all the food and get new ones before we could take them.My mother patted his back and asked him whether if he dare to rush on his food again.With teary eyes,he shook his head.I snickered at the sight of this. We ate to our heart's content and did our part in cleaning up the area after we filled our stomachs. Lastly,we all sat together on the grass and observed the sky.There were many stars but the moon was nowhere to be seen.After having another chat,we went back to the chalet to have a refreshing hot water bath.Finally,the day was over.
The following day,we checked out and ate our breakfast before leaving for home.
I truly enjoyed the barbecue night as that is when i sat with my family,the ones that I love,and ate,talked and laughed whole-heartedly.
What a special moment i enjoyed with my family!
