Double Father’s Day Celebration

Posted on September 23, 2018 | 2 comments

As we celebrate both Nepali Father’s Day and Australian Father’s Day, we had a great time with both the celebrations.

For the Australian one, Chhori and I baked a cake and surprised AS with breakfast in bed.

Chhori helped me with cooking and baking and was over the moon with her cupcake.

With Nepali Father’s day, I prepared Sagun and Chhori followed the ritual with AS.

I am so proud to say that she is such a good girl that we don’t have to worry at all. All I have to do is instruct and she will do the process and enjoy the whole thing too.

Hope all the fathers had a great time celebrating Father’s Day.

Happy Weekend everyone 🙂

Father’s Day, Celebrating both Nepali and Australian way

Posted on September 3, 2017 | 3 comments

On Monday , 21st of August was Kushe Aushi (Nepali Father’s Day) and today is Australian Father’s day so we celebrated both the father’s day in very different way for AS.

I always want Chhori to understand Nepali culture and traditions so for Nepali father’s day, it is important for me to show her the traditional way. As it was weekdays, I went shopping after work and prepare for the celebration.

Chhori is 2 and half years old now so it is more fun this year than before as she can understand and take interest on what we are doing. As she is old enough, AS and I gave her direction and she followed them very well.

We had so much fun, her putting tika, sagun  and cutting cake.

Today , I made breakfast to AS with the help of Chhori and she said “Happy Father’s Day Papa”. It is so sweet to see them together. We made pancake , heart shaped eggs and some fruits.

Then she help her papa wash our cars. She was so excited to help.

Take care everyone.

Father’s Day celebration

Posted on September 6, 2016 | Leave a comment

It was Kushe Aushi (Nepali Father’s Day) on Thursday and Australian Father’s day on Sunday so we combined the celebrations for AS and my dad.

Father's Day (3)

This is AS’s second Father’s day so it is still very special like the first one.

Father's Day (2)

Also it is very special father’s day for me as my dad is here and I could actually celebrate the day with him.

Father's Day (4)

As it was a weekday, my mum helped me to prepare Sagun (traditionally a plate of boiled egg, smoked fish, a “bara”, fried chicken and yogurt). It is such a great help when your parents are near you, I am going to miss them so much when they leave.

Father's Day (5)

I baked a cake and muffins too. I picked a card as well along with some biscuits, cookies and fruits.

Father's Day (7)

I am so glad that we got to celebrate the day as a family.

Father's Day (8)

First we celebrated AS father’s day. We did a normal tika and sagun. Chhori was quite curious and happy to do the process.

Father's Day (9)

I don’t think she understands much yet but she loves it when there are lots of people around her and she is definitely daddy’s little girl.

Then I celebrated my father’s day with tika and sagun as well.

Father's Day (10) Father's Day (11) Father's Day (12)

It was followed by cake and gifts.

Father's Day (14)

Hope you guys have a great celebration too.

Father's Day (1)

Take care everyone.

Chhori’s first Nepali Father’s Day

Posted on September 13, 2015 | 1 comment

Only last week, it was Australian Father’s Day and AS was over the moon to be able to celebrate it with Chhori. Today is Kushe Aushi (Nepali Father’s Day). I made plans to make it special for AS as it is his first and I wanted to celebrate it in traditional Nepali way.

Nepali father's Day (5)

I prepared puja, Sagun (traditionally a plate of boiled egg, smoked fish, a “bara”, fried chicken and yogurt). I also baked a cake with the wording “For the record, you are the world’s best dad; Happy Father’s Day AS” on it.

Nepali father's Day (2) Nepali father's Day (4)

I also baked some cupcakes. I made a special card with Chhori’s handprints and “Happy Father’s Day” written on it. I also got him some fruits, biscuits and t-shirt.

Nepali father's Day (1)

I was so happy to see everything come together and AS was really pleased with my efforts.

Nepali father's Day (3)

So Chhori observed her first Nepali Father’s Day with my help. First we put tika on AS forehead.

Nepali father's Day (7) Nepali father's Day (8)

Then we give him Sagun. After that Chhori and AS cut the cake together.

Nepali father's Day (9)

He was pleased with the card as well and Chhori had a great time too.

I and AS also talked to our dads and send them gifts for Father’s Day. It is always so nice to see them happy. I really appreciate what they have done for us.

So if you are from Nepal and you haven’t called your dad to wish him, do give him a call and make him smile. And to all the proud dads out there, Happy Father’s Day.

Take care everyone.
