Witches and little monsters get-together: Halloween playdate.

A bunch of us Mummies Witches organised a Halloween Playdate for our children. Between us, we have 10 children so can you imagine the amount of Trick or Treatin' going on!

Let's see what we had brewing in our dungeon!

 

Pumpkin cupcakes baked by yours truly!

We had a Wizard, Devil, Pirates (not yet pictured), Pumpkins (mine), and little Ballerinas!

Little Ballerina is angry because of the loud spooky music the boys were playing HEHEHE.
I swear if I have a daughter imma spoil her rotten!

The Pirate family!

See my Adam in the middle of the table grabbing as many treats as he could. *Mummy blushes and hides her face*

 

Glad that the children and adults had equal parts of fun.

Adam and Ashton had soooooo much candy that when we got home, it was time to whip out Mama's Magic Potion - Young Living DiGize, Lemon, and Grapefruit to detox, detox, detox.

 

 

Gotta send my kids to Candy Rehab for the next 2 months!

 

[Media invite] Erth's Dinosaur zoo coming to you at Kidsfest 2015!

 

Adam and Ashton have never been to any plays before. Heck, even Andy and I have never been to any plays before.

When the lovely PR people for KidsFest contacted us for the media invite, I made sure I marked my calendar.

 

 

What is KidsFest all about?

For the uninitiated, KidsFest is an annual three-week festival of world-class theatre plays for children. The productions are from all over the world, and for Erth's Dinosaur Zoo in particular, it will be their first time coming to Singapore.

 

 

Meet awesome prehistoric creatures, from cute baby dinos to some of the largest carnivores and herbivores that have ever walked the planet!

Erth's Dinosaurs come alive and are mostly friendly, except for the large predators like T-rex of course!

 

 

When is KidFest happening?

KidsFest will be coming to SOTA Drama Theatre from 21st January - 1st March 2015, with 8 plays for young people.

River Safari's first Halloween kids event: Safari BOO.

Adam was excited about his and Ashton's first ever Halloween celebration this year.

In the past, with only Adam and Ashton being a baby still, we never really fancied such fads.

This year, however, we knew that River Safari is gonna hold its first Halloween A Merry-Not-Scary event for kids, so Andy & I decided to get our lazy asses off the couch and go Trick or Treatin'!

 

For weeks prior to today, Adam had been bugging me about the Halloween party.

He asked me what I am going as, and I thought I would go as myself - a flustered mother with her wild children is scary enough.

 

Kids all dressed up and raring to go.

What a crowd!

Trick or treat!



and so I went as a black cat, as per Adam's request.

The must-have for this do: Smudge-proof and water-proof liquid eyeliner from Shu Uemura, and MAC's berry-stained lipstick in "Good to be Bad"... how apt.

because I am their crazy Meowmmy and I will do anything to make them happy.
