Family Day @ Zoo

Having a free admission to the zoo for the whole family is definitely a draw factor. Last year, CT's company hosted it in Marina Barrage and not many families attended. I was dead sure this year, the turn out will be great. No doubt. Driving to the Zoo in the morning to find out that we have a reserved lot with our car plate number just near the entrance makes everything less stressful...especially since it was a Sunday. To Caleb's surprise, he met his classmate, Koen and brother there at the entrance.

We made our way to the Forest Lodge, where the event was held.

There was free Cornetto ice cream, popcorn, candy floss as well as KFC 3 piece meal lunch each!

and Bouncy Castle for the children..

The fun part was the dunking segment where the staff get to dunk their boss and managers. All proceeds go to charity. There's CT on it!

There was also caricature booth where we could get our faces drawn on mugs or paper.

After the whole morning and early afternoon of fun at the company's Family Day, we walked around for a bit before heading back.

All of us were so exhausted..

Christmas lights @Orchard

Went to Orchard today with the children. Met up with hubby after his training at Traders Hotel. We walked from Shaw Centre to Orchard Central for dinner. While walking, the children had fun looking at the Christmas decorations.

We took the express escalator up to the restaurant at Orchard Central, 8th floor.

Had dinner at the Japanese Restaurant that serves home cooked food. So it is not the usual food you see in Japanese Restaurant. Its more of rice set with simple veggies and meat.

I ordered the grilled pork which tasted soooo good and fragrant. I enjoyed it a lot. Even the children enjoyed the food, especially the rice!

After a great meal, we had a great walk down Orchard Road as we viewed the lights.

Its always a joy to be down at Orchard, watching the lights. I think that's about the only reason why I like going Orchard.

While walking, we stopped for some ice cream.

And as usual, I would look forward to the decorations done up by Tangs as its always meaningful. Enjoy!

Concert 2012

Going for school concert reminds me of the time when Caleb used to freeze on stage a couple of times and just stand in one corner, without moving. Thank God, he has grown out of it and not only that, he seems comfortable on it and off stage, he is like a social butterfly.

As for Danielle, she is such a good and obedient girl who despite being stubborn at times, is rather active in her participation. She was standing right in front during her performance and boy, what proud parents we were!

Then came Caleb's turn and he did a great job as well!

The finale was also awesome as all the children came out to sing a couple of songs. The voice that came out from the children were so touching as they are so innocent and sweet.

And after the concert, there was lunch provided. Caleb and Danielle took the opportunity to take pictures with their friends. Here's Caleb with his friends-David Hosea and Praise

And Danielle with her best friend, Grace

Very proud of my 2 children!
