Bali Indonesia Dec 2010... Lifes a beach!

We are back!

Enjoyed loads of sun, sand, water, and seafood. Even our little riot enjoyed himself running around, swimming, and getting his tan. I dont wanna come back to reality!

Adam was actually dancing outside the Hard Rock shop to the Rock 'n' Roll music!


and he danced his way back to our room :D

My Kuta cowboys!

Having dinner by the beach watching sunset. This is the life :D

Julia Roberts was here.

Natural water spring temple.

Visited coffee plantation. Coffee from civet cat poop? No thanks for me! :P

Andy is roasting poop coffee beans :D

at Kuta Beach...

Our lil Rascal!

Came back with (small) presents for my gal friendssss :)))
Recharged and rejuvenated now.

Happy Holidays dear all!
Lotsa love,
Veron, Andy, Adam :)

Dinner at IRODORI Jap Buffet

with my girls, and our expanding family!
We started out as four crazy girls in Sec school, nicknamed the Funkiest Four hahahaha! That was more than a decade ago. Come to think of it, we did some really absurd things back then!
Now, we have recruited more members by means of linking up with more sec school girls, dating, marriage and children. But our friendship remains unchanged :)


Missing in action is Huiwen, who is currently pregnant in her last trimester and ordered bed rest by her doctor.

Jarrett kor kor kept wanting to kiss my bochup Adam di di. So cuteeee!!
Siew Wei recently just gave birth to another boy, Princeton. Our girlies outings are increasingly stinking of testosterone!

After dinner we hung out at Angeline & Sean's pad...
Adam and Latte became fast friends and sidekicks.
See? Do everything also must caught in action together :D


The aunties and uncle very serious in mahjong. The uncle still can multi-task on iPad...

We always try to organise an outing but because of the large group our gang has become, it is near impossible to fit everyone's schedule.
Like Carol says, our plan is to have a plan!

Robinsons Closed door sale

My dearest sale guru Meena asked me along to the Robinsons closed door sale yesterday.
I went to fetch Vetrin & her and we all happily headed out to Centrepoint together.

At Aunty's house:

The 2 munkies and their munky business!


At the closed door sale...
So there we were, 2 aunties, with 2 boys, our prams, diaper bags, and an appetite to sniff out good buys. So many people, so long Queue!

I finally, finally bought our Nespresso Citiz & Milk. It was heavy, but also very discounted, so I happily lugged it home because I know how much Andy wants it (well, he's the birthday boy... tee hee..). Thankfully, my brother already said he wants our Martello coffee machine before this so the equation kinda worked out for us (otherwise I can't imagine what to do with two coffee machines).




As for Meena, she bought Foogos thermos food jar, cooking utensils, and lots of toys/ fabric books for her lucky boy Vetrin. Very discounted as well. *nods head in agreement*
Happy Mommies rule :D

Before I forget, we're packing up and heading to Bali next week to celebrate Andy's birthday, get some much-needed respite, and have a family celebration of Christmas - Andy, Kai and me.


Here's wishing everyone a merry merry Christmas~~ :)


With much love,
V.

A weekend with family & friends

Exams
My exams' results are finally out - I PASSED! Yay~ I passed and scored even higher than in my 1st sem! I'm soooooo happpppyyyyy. So now Sem 2 is officially over. Time to cough up the school fees and get ready for Year 2 - Semesters 3 and 4.


Cousins playdate
Some random photos from a random noon at my Aunt's place - with my cousins' kids. The four of em munkies again. This was before both Bryan & Chloe broke out in measles. I thought it is compulsory to vaccinate babies with MMR (mumps, measles, rubella) in SG but apparently they still got it??!!? Poor kids. Poor cousins. Hope they recover soon.

together with Aunt LY, we brought Kai to another aunt's house for playdate.

Friends got married
Arjun & Deepa tied the knot after 12.5yrs of dating. All weddings are unique and special in their own ways just like every couple is unique, but this wedding was different - it was exceptionally happy. There were a lot of wine, laughter, music and dancing.
Luke & his awesome band performed live. The bride & groom danced. Their parents danced. Even the grandparents danced. Needless to say, Andy & I danced. As did everyone else.
As I quote Deepa's mom - "when children find true love, parents find true happiness".

Cousin's daughter turned 1yr old
Crystal's (Andy's cousin) daughter Adrina turns one. That's a major milestone, and we were happy to celebrate with her. Demure and pretty little princess :)
