The AGM

The wedding preparation continues with the first AGM, attended by the committee members (parents, MILs, Maya akka, Sinnamma, thambhi and SIS, and of course, me).

Before the meeting, we had a dinner as well as satay. Initially we planned for a barbeque, but due to the rain, it was cancelled.

I found it difficult to feed Champion and lil' President, as they were both so excited with the crowd. Champion was so friendly to everybody, and lil' President was excited to be venturing around.. by walking!

When Sherene and Tasha came, he was excited to see them. He went to Sherene, faced her, smiled, turned 180 degrees with one jump, and asked her to carry him onto her lap. Later, he even ran up to Tasha, slapped he arm, and shouted "Hi!". We were shocked. But Tasha was even more shocked, as she was not fond with children. The best of all, Champion seemed to like her!! Hahahaha!

Maya akka reminded me that it will be almost impossible for me to control my sons that night, and she was right! For a moment, I was wondering who was older; Champion or Morvn (both 2nd cousins). Champion was bullying him, holding him tight, etc. Many times I had to interfere to make sure nobody gets hurt.

After dinner, the AGM started, while the guys had their drinks in the cold night. The discussion was fruitful; assigning tasks to people, making sure the order of the events, finalizing everybody’s ideas, etc..

Even though Champion and lil' President was not feeling well, they were actively joining us in the meeting, and didn’t sleep until everybody left at 2.00 a.m.

Now, with all those assigned tasks, the wedding work starts!

I am in charge of the ...

finalizing of the wedding invitation card (the card will be finalized by end of the week, and sent for printing);

wedding book for the church (includes choosing the songs and bible passages for the readings);

programme book for the dinner (timeline of the wedding reception).
