Boon Hoatn Nam

by Phonethip from Loas

I still can remember my favorite celebration when I was six years old. My favorite celebration is boon houtn nam. I like that holiday because my grandma was still alive and I got to spend a lot of time with her. My grandma woke me up at 9:00 in the morning. She woke me up because she was going to celebrate boon houtn nam. She knows that I like to play with the water. Especially when I splash the water and get her wet. She could tell how hard I splash the water and it sound like I was hitting papers. I was outside and my grandma got the water ready for the celebration. We each get are own water gun. My uncle comes to my house and brings small buckets for my friends and me. When a car or a bus comes by we splash them or shoot them with the water.
