September Hols

This Spetember Hols we decided to do something different as a family. We realized we have been bringing the kids to too much indoor enterntainment like shopping and not wanting to breed shopping kings and queens, we decided to let them have other avenues of fun. First up was "Thomas and Friends" show at Expo which Jedi has been waiting to see for ages and ages! We enjoyed a loooooooong MRT ride from CCK all the way down and had a quick bite and some walking around before going for the show. The souvenirs for sale were SUPER expensive like a light stick cost $15 bucks and posters were the same price too! So we didn't get any but guess Jedi had a good deal as Dan decided to surprise him with a Sodor Airport set on sale there.... hee rather contradictory though as we didn't want to succumb to buying the memorabila! Krisa surprisingly enjoyed herself and kept clapping and dancing to the music throughout the show while Jedi was so star-struck that Thomas came to life that he just sat there in utter awe!

So to end off the hols we took a family outing to Chinese Gardens to see the lanterns. Dan gave Jedi a quick nature talk on bullfrogs that we heard along the way there and the sound really made my hair stand on end though!!! The kids loved the lights and sounds and utterly enjoyed themselves so it was nice to see them all smiley and happy at the end of the day.

Jedi was pooped! But Mei Mei was still high on energy! She really needs little sleep! *sigh*
