Halloween

This is a backdated entry, I'm really tired and exhausted to write.

The kids had so much fun. The rain did dampen the mood, we made our way back to the carpark for the childrens' dinner. By then it stopped raining and we (KZ, the children and myself) made our way back there again while brother, SIL and mom went back home.
I wanted to see if the nicely decorated home is done up again this year; che-che wanted to go again; KZ wanted to have a look again.
We managed to collect some more sweets.. now what am I gonna do with all those sweets? KZ suggested putting them in the pinata. Chey! She's so bad.... well I normally 'donate' to my lovely siblings.

Photo time :
At home - had to leave house much earlier coz' of mei-mei's rehearsal. I feel so out of place wearing this dress to the auditorium (where rehearsal was held).

Presenting Mrs Devil Universe 2009
Taking the first walk as a newly crowned devil
The devil accomplice - heehee! She was suppose to be a vampire and then she wanted this as well.. it's a good thing I bought 2 headbands and 2 pitchforks. Otherwise I'll turn myself into a vampire and suck her blood!!
The cutest pirate I've ever seen. Ahem......and with a milk bottle (+ diapers) too!
This year I was a little smarter by bringing food for the children and packing bread and drinks for myself. Brought a stroller along too.. though handy but troublesome when you're going from house to house.

























Ahoy mate! I found you!!






Part 2 - didn't get to see the nicely decorated house (prob family went back home?). But saw this black cat who was on the roof a year ago on the car now.




The children were sad when I told them we had to leave. They wanted more sweets (I didn't want more sweets coz' I always end up donating them away). Came back exhausted, scrubbed ourselves and changed into clean clothes.
And the children poured everything out to show daddy




Aricia's rehearsal

Thanks to her kind teachers, they helped me with the video-ing and photo-taking.

I got to see how my girl fare on stage. View the video and have a good laugh over my girl, she was surprised when the curtain opened (and the stage looked brighter); she didn't dance much and was practically having fun 'falling down'.

Che-che, on the other hand, is born to be on stage.

Nonetheless, this is my little playful girl doing her first rehearsal (not performance) - so sad!!!

Pre - Halloween fun

The day before I asked Teacher M for permission to dress Aricia up in her costume today. I had bought some candies for the kids. I thought dressing her up would be fun coz' she'll never get to do this when she goes Primary school. Let me break school rules first!

Teacher M obliged, double checked on the total number of children in school - 75. I had bought 4 bags of M&Ms on Wednesday and counted the sweets - 76. Had been trying to buy another pack from other outlets but can't seem to find. Can you imagine where I got my 4 bags from? NTUC Simei. And since I was back in Marine Parade on Thursday, I thought the 2 Cold Storages and 1 NTUC should carry it since there are some expatriates living there as well. But NO!!

In the morning, I briefly told mei-mei that she had to help to give out candies to her friends in school. She gladly obliged. When I picked her up later, she said she wants to give out sweets to her friends again.

Here are some photos of my girl.
