The Diary Game: A Day Spent With Family and Friends||21/12/2024||

Merry Christmas @everyone. Welcome To My Blog as I share my live daily contents. Hope we all are doing pretty good. Today, I'll be sharing my Saturday Activities. Please, stay tuned and read with love from @uyaiuyo

In the morning,I woke up, prayed, cleaned up and went straight to the kitchen to make breakfast for my kids with rice and stew and fried plantains. We moved to the shop so we can change up our clothes and prepare for the funeral while waiting for the bus my uncle booked for us to arrive.

Actually, Saturday was a very long day spent with my family at the funeral of my Uncle's Mother In-law.
This was me after dressing up at the shop

My kids also dressed up too

We arrived the venue for the funeral successfully. Everywhere was well arranged and people already seated waiting for the church in charge to start the funeral service.

The brass band where already waiting so the cam match in the bereaved family.

This was stand for praise team and band.

Here was where the bereaved family was seated

The white decorations over there was where the casket was kept.

My kids where busy looking at all the decorations and the brass band people.

We were given a place to sit. Few minutes after our arrival, the funeral service started.

In the afternoon, we were still at the funeral service. Infact, we spent our morning, afternoon and evening at the funeral venue. Let me introduce you to some of my family members, uncles, Aunts, Cousins and family friends. Other family members were still on their way even after we arrived.

Her Royal Majesty, The Queen Mother, Nne Nkem (My Mother) was also present at the funeral.

Different groups both political and non political groups also came. These were the Village Women's Association.

The kind of songs sang by these group of women, even if your waist was stiff for many years, upon hearing their songs and drums with konga, Chai! You must dance. @uyaiuyo was not an exception of the above explanations. I danced and danced and
danced. (Ikot ofon village in Ikono Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, una do this one).

The woman was successfully buried and item six (entertainment) took place.

In the evening, we were still entertained at the venue with different foods and drinks.

After the entertainment, we entered our bus and zoomed we got to our home town safely. Thank God for Journey Mercies.
We got to the shop, changed up and relaxed while waiting for my husband to come and pick us home.

This was my Mum after changing her dress and rocking her princess's sun shade.... It sure looked good on her.

We finally got home, freshened up, bathed the kids and served my hubby dinner. This Was How I spent My Saturday.
