The Wedding

In early September we went back to Semarang to attend Illa and Kemal's wedding (mas Nuki's sister). We only managed to be home during the weekend, since Aretha couldn't get time off from work and mas Nuki has classes to attend. Yet it was a nice celebration to be involved in, and we got to see our family and friends. Mas Nuki invited his friends over, while Aretha invited hers.

Being away makses us realize just how much we miss our home, family and friends. For Aretha's case, her friends Dhita and Agnes came to the hen's party (well not exactly like the western style of hen's party, but traditional the so-called "Midodareni"). It was a good timing as Agnes was about to depart to Korea for her graduate studies in the following week.

Then Shima came also at the wedding reception. It was quite a funny story, because Aretha was greedily tried to satisfy her cravings for Indonesian food with her family at the VIP room. She thought, maybe Shima won't be able to find her, but what can she do? A gal's gotta eat! :-) Then out of the blue, someone poked her shoulder from behind, and guess who it is? Yup, Shima! What a surprise!

Anyway the photos are posted below. Aretha was about 6 months preggers. It's already showing, isn't it?
