Ushering the Year of the Boar

CNY eve reunion dinner by tradition is usually held at my parents home. However, this year, the crowd has grown much bigger due to the return from overseas of the family members of my two younger siblings. It was decided that the venue for the dinner be held at my home. This was also to accommodate the request for a family photo to be taken which would include all attendees that evening.
CNY Eve: 5 Feb 2019 - The Lee's family photo.
The last reunion family photo of the Lee's was taken in Christmas 2004, just over fourteen years ago. So much has changed and my parents had also passed away.
The Lee's taken in Christmas: 25 Dec 2004
Our family is represented by four members only.

These are the 4th generation attendees if we consider my grandparents who came from China as the 1st generation.

Reunion is also about eating and food hunting. For aging couples who do not have the luxury of having a bigger gang to simultaneously sample a variety of dishes at home, reunion meal at a restaurant is probably the next best solution.
