Christmas @ Home

We have been celebrating Xmas since the 20th and we are finally down to the last celebration which we are having at home sweet home.

Foodwise, apart from the Xmas fanfare of logcake, ham and sausages, we also had Satay and salmon sashimi. A good mix of east meets west, just like our Xmas tree corner....keke.
Judging by the amount of presents that J received, I think next year, we need to have a bigger tree.

This year, we got J a Thomas the Train set.
"J, look at all your presents. There are so many people who loves and remember you. You've got to be thankful for all these blessings. But most important of all, we've got to be thankful to Jesus for that is what Christmas is all."

It seems not too long ago that we celebrated J's 1st Xmas and now we are celebrating his 2nd. Come next year, we will have another new addition to the family, little Mattias! God, thank you for a blessed 2007.

Cheers to 2008!

Xmas Celebration at the Court

And I don't mean the Sub Court or High Court but rather, Kentish Court.

We received an invitation to join G and her family for a Xmas celebration. It is also a good time for the 2 cousins, Shyen and J to get together and have some rowdy fun.
I think the adults had more fun watching the 2 boys amusing themselves.
We had a sumptuous dinner esp the DIY popiah and Mattias even got his 1st birthday present before he's born.
Tks for the invitation, G!

Annual SIM Gals Gathering

Once again, it is time for the annual SIM Gals gathering. "SIM Gals" is not referring to any beauty pagent but rather a group of gals who got to know each other while pursuing our Diploma at Singapore Institute of Management about 8-9 years ago.

We used to study together during the exam periods and ever since, we have kept a close relationship.

Over this period of time, most of us have settled down with kids. What used to be 6 crazy partying gals has mellowed down to 2 crazy partying gals + 4 mummies with kids in tow.
We hope to keep this good old tradition of Xmas gathering for a long time to come! Cheers!

Christmas came early

Christmas came early for J when his cousins, C,D,E lugged his Xmas present all the way from Bedok to Wlands.

His cousins helped him to open the present while J looked on. He is totally unaware of what the big box contains. Actually he seems more excited with the box and wrapping rather than the content itself.

The content took some setting up and viola, it is a wash and cook set! Wah....talk abt starting young.....seems like I have to start training him up to be a SNAG who wash and cook!
