Weekend Getaway

Image
This was a busy weekends for us and the kids. All the event seem to be cramping on these two days. 1st of all, Janelle's class was rescheduled to Sat morning, it was an extra class given by the centre. After Janelle's class we headed down to our weekend getaway stay. The services at the check in counter was great and we upgraded to the seaview room so we get to see the fireworks... (not sure if there is any). The kids went "WAH" when they entered the room, it was really beautiful and luxury. Law has waited long for this after I told him abt it and he has given instruction not to plan anymore activities after we checked in and before we checked out as he wanted to enjoy the room fully. I have to push away Han Beng invitation to his ger 1st bday as Law doesnt want to travel out once checked in and reschedule Janelle's Sunday class to another day again. But I guessed everything is worth it if arrangement can be made but I make a point that we will have to attend Veni...

I cannot believe it.

It is a post-dated posting..... just that I felt I shld blog it down but not sure why I didnt last time. I saw the clothes that I given away out of goodwill appeared on the web, someone trying to sell it away. OMG. I cannot believe my eyes at all................ for goodnes sake!

Weekends were really busy for us but still celebration must still go on. I'm having an outdoor photography shoots that evening so I asked Law to meet me with the kids after that as I wanted to celebration Father's Day with him. My shoot end ard 7:30pm. Was asking Law to wait for me at Central but Janelle called me later to inform me that the car park was full and they have gone to Liang Court instead. Really sweat me out to walk from Clarke Quay MRT station to Liang Court. Poor Janelle must have being too hungry, Law said my little ger was complained of stomach pain, which i guessed must be too hungry. We settled for Saizeriya, and ordered steak for ourselves, pasta and pizza for the kids. Althot it was a short night but it was still pleasant.
