Mooncake Festival II

Despite the haze, I let the kids play outside after dinner last night. It would be such a pity if they miss the chance, JS told hub ” daddy, today is lantern festival. Tonight is the last day to play lantern, after that cannot play anymore” I was actually still hesistating whether to let her out before she said that, but upon hearing her say that, it’s like so “kesian”. How could I deny her the chance to have fun.

We lighted up the candles and hang the paper lanterns on the fence (still have 2 packes of candles left though). They had good fun for almost one hour.
