since I last went to a chalet. I am talking about YEARS! Reminiscing the time in our teens, where going chalet, overnight, barbecue, ghost stories….. Honestly, this has to be the worst unplanned chalet that I’ve got myself into. It’s suppose to be a chalet which my eldest brother and his family to spend their quality time. While, I am looking for a venue to have a mini birthday party for Seth. Really mini=family only party. Not too much to ask for right?

However, ALAS! Some issues cropped up and then we had the chalet to ourselves, with my eldest brother and his youngest daughter only. Nonetheless, the laid back feeling is great, shopping for bbq, thrilling! (ya, ya… as if I still have energy to really think of the food to prepare) The sad part of it, I have to get to work tomorrow morning, have a presentation for customer and then half day afternoon off to prepare the bbq stuffs. short time, short party, head home and work on friday again. What a Chalet holiday it is. It’s a waste of such big CHALET (bungalow to me) that the occupants are not many, just the two kids running up and down the stairs, my god-daughter, burying herself with her assignment, yada yada stuffs from work and from her mom’s. Poor gal.

hope to be back giving some photoblog of the chalet. Also, will need to be working late again for work, and preparing the house for party tomorrow.

Counting down to the days to the business trip and our holiday. I usually love the anticipating period but this time round, I am stressed out due to the workload (usual), kids falling sick, and also how the customer visit will fair. It’s the very first trip for me, in work. I was told “so blessed” to go for the trip. But with the high level engagement and the limelight, it will means more $$$ to bring for the co. right? Anyway, not to blog too much about my work. This blog is my personal space for my personal crafting pursue and also what I’ve love to share with friends.

I am totally missing my scrapbooking time. Can’t recall when’s the last time already. Has it been maybe a quarter? So much so I should just do it. Like the NIKE slogan. Forget the procrastinating……..

Let’s see if my sleepy bug can leave me alone and I can manage a craft or two.

Here’s the recap of how my darling boy has grown…

Tis the Season

GEMS

Yep! It takes months for me to come back and update this blog of mind. GEEZ. Have totally neglected penning down the kids progress, updating my creative work. It’s never gonna be so easy now with the daily growing demands of the kids and also the work commitments. Especially so for the job I am in. Daily drive and by the time I reach home, I just feel like plonking down on the couch and not even move!

Ok, enough of the lamenting and now, the photoblog of the Christmas Eve Party we had over at my place. Always an enjoyment spending time with family.

Tired waiting out for the party to start

Some Serious Fishing Talk….

The Grandpa with the kids, playing Wii

our family time, family shot is great!

Princess Aval

Noting that Princess Grace is not in the photo as she’s unwell that day and was so grouchy throughout the whole week. The family stayed till 2yish in the morning and by then Grace was asleep. My sweetie was plaque with mouthful of ulcers and it was so tough for her to go through, imagining even for adult it’s gonna be a killing one with a couple of ulcers. My gal is totally strong and such high pain of threshold to go through this at her age of 2 yrs 4 months.

I was intending to bring the kids for the Chipmunks 2 Movie but then Seth was down with high fever on Christmas Day. HIAZ! Just the sort of untimely event. Both my hubby and I was panicky over the fever as Seth temperature shot up to 40.3 deg C. We manage to sponge him down. Thus for BOXING DAY, we just had to be homebound and have the kids well recovered.

Continuing on with our photoblog, here’s another series we took at Orchard last week.

Hope you had a wonderful time spent with your family during the season of giving, Peace and Joy follows throughout the days of your life and a bountiful 2010 ahead!

Leaving you this video of why we celebrate Christmas.

the mojo keeps going

GEMS

and I was hoping to embellish more of the layout no. 2, however, I guess still, with so much on hands, I did not really know which to use or where I’ve stuff them too. Anyway, I am in the mood of stamping, especially with my new stamps from USC.

Used : AC Thickers,Sassafras Lass, SEI PP, Art Declassified stamps, USC stamps

Afternoon, Seth’s swimming class at LeGenda. Kids swam in the raining day and with the rain, I think they would enjoy even more as all of them refuse to get out of the pool! HA! After the swim, the boys got together at Aiden’s and started to paint… BOY! a mess did they make but still manageable while the mommies and my Olive Tree keep telling them, “don’t do this, don’t do that!” Isn’t it defeating the purpose of them being CREATIVE!? With June’s reminder, we stopped being critical and let them do what they want with the painting and stamping and finger painting. Some of the shots taken with them in their funny faces.

Not forgetting my lil’ princess, today she’s the cooking MAMA! Enjoying the kitchen set at KC’s place.

For a wonderful week ahead, Jia You!

How Fun to Have it in hands

GEMS

the Hello Kitty Fuji Instax 25 has arrived! Ooow.. I was so inspired to snap with it and I tried a shot in office. Taken my very first virgin shot of Cindy and Bee Kee. A bit washed out and I think the blurriness of the photo is due to my shaky hands, being hungry.. haahaha…

Here are the loot.

I managed to do a self portrait that turn out quite ok.
Also, the colors are pretty cool (muted) and the clarity in auto exposure is acceptable. The fun part of having a Instax is the instant you can see the output of your shot which gives the refreshing feel and eagerness to view how the shot will look like.

Anyway, I am now one happy woman, waiting to snap more at my sweet princess birthday party.

OOh, and I have also edited some photos of the kids, taken for the past weeks.

NDP 2009

GEMS

NDP 2009, eventful and memorable.

Eventful as Grace chipped her front tooth off when she ran and fell down, face flat, hitting her mouth. Heart pain!!
She cried badly and the left tooth chipped in awkward ways that resulted in a very sharp pointed tooth. Need to send her to see the dentist soon.

We had quite a long wait at the Esplanade Theatre by the Bay. It was a good area where we were still able to watched the parade happenings and also catch the sea activities by the Navy and Air Force. It was Grace first NDP event and she was restless, sweaty. Despite her broken tooth, she ate quite a bit of tidbits, munching happily with her cousins. Here are some photos taken by my Olive Prince nephew and me.
