Hubby birthday celebration

The first celebration was with our cell group friends on 25th July. Meiying bought fruits tarts and it was yummy. The kids love the fruits! 

On 27th July we drove in to desaru for a short stay over cos this year hubby birthday coincide with Hari Raya Puasa. We detour to Legoland before heading down to Desaru and nearly lost the way as our GPS guided us in a different route.

I have booked Pulai Desaru Resort and we stayed there for 2D1N. I booked a standard deluxe with extra bed and during check-in, the guy claim that they upgrade my room but I seriously doubt so. Anyway I don't really like this hotel. Here are the reasons :

1. Limited wifi- only accessible via the lobby

2. Pricey - I booked the room with extra bed and the price i paid was so much higher and my friend say it's look similar to the room she stayed previously and so much cheaper than mine! 

3. Pathetic breakfast - Refill of food are extremely slow and what I get is nasi Lemak with ikan bills, egg, peanuts & fried noodle. Not much selection nor choice. The croissant taste like rubber and Adelle hates it! My kids didn't even want to eat their breakfast. 

4. Small children playground with houseflies flying around in aircon room

5. Dinner - We ate at one of the restaurant and waited 1hr for the udon which they left out in the order. 

The only nice thing is the pool area that has a small slides and beach to entertain my kids. 

We left at 12pm and went to the nearby RM$2 shop to see any good buy. Lots of things and we bought snacks etc. My recommendation is don't buy the snack as the cracker we bought are not expired but they are not crispy at all. Then after the quick stopover, we head straight to Indah for grocery shopping and late lunch. 

We head back to Singapore at 5pm and stuck in jam till 8.30pm then we reach Singapore. As it was rather late and we decided to go Kallang Wave Mall to eat dinner and buy birthday cake from Chocolate Origin. The cake was nice and we had dinner at Shokudo. Nice food and we brought the cake home to celebrate! 

Happy Birthday to my dearest Hubby. Wishing you good health, wealth & abundance of happiness in life! Lots of love from your gals!! 😉

Police Heritage Centre

I called up and booked the tour since june and finally on July 25th is the tour day! 

I took PM leave and rush to BHG sale before head back to pick up the gals for the tour at 4pm. We took a cab to the new Pheonix Park and the driver was curious why does an adult with 2 kids will go to Police HQ. So I told him, we are going for a tour (visit). He was smiling when he heard that and we reached there by 3.45pm to register.

The security were tight and we were guided into the place. It was like a museum and the gals learnt about the police history and get to take pictures in police costume! 

They enjoyed the tour very much and they came telling everyone about the tour and things that they learnt at the Police Heritage Center. 

T3 slide

We went to airport T3 as I need to collect my changi reward card so we dine at our usual place - Gurney Drive and went to buy rainbow looms bands from Minitoons. With all these receipts, I got quite a few big slides tickets and Adelle went twice on the big rides! 

Bible Quest

The gals have been working hard since March to get badges for the Bible Quest and finally they got their first sash and badge on 12th July. They are so excited about it and they are now working on their second and third badges too. Good job babes!!! ☺️

Parents are invited to the ceremony and we went to attend and witness the happy moments! 

Kallang Wave Mall

Last Saturday (12th jul) hubby went reservist so I brought the gals on a walking trip to Sport Hub (Kallang Wave Mall). 

As I was told by the map that it is a 600m walk so I decided to give it a try. It was a easy straight path that leads us to the nichol highway bridge. So quite easy and fast route from my house in kallang to Sports hub. Took us abt 20mins to reach on a slow and easy walk. 

We could see our house from Sport hub! 

There are some activities as it is kallang wave mall opening. The gals did sand art while waiting for our friends to pick us up to church. 

We wanted to see the foldable bike that was on sale by Ntuc but fully sold out. So disappointing. 

Youth Day out

Another school holiday again on 7th July and we went Sentosa! Yes again cos I m utilizing my last pair of POLW tickets.. Don't waste mah.. Besides the gals really like there. 

This time we reached there much earlier at 2.30pm and able to participate in the bubble pool and pots & planks activity. Of cos these need to use the curios to pay. Good thing is our last trip there still have curios left to pay for these 2 activities. 

As usual, the gals can entertain themselves and made friends with other kids. 

We left POLW at 5pm cos the gals say want to go to Merlion Park to walk walk. We took monorail there and took some pictures outside and we head back to Vivocity as entering the Merlion need to pay! :p

Back to School - Kinder Joy event

We all love Kinder Joy as it is a chocolate full of surprises! So when I saw there is a Back to School event organised by Kinder Joy, I registered my gals for the event. 

It was held at Times Bookstore @ Centerpoint on 6th July. The event start from 4.15pm for registration and then story telling followed by the Kinder Brueno painting and lastly the quiz time! 

The story telling was told by the writer Emma Nicholson and the sorry is about Princess Petunia's dragon! It was a nice story and reminded of me the similar story as the Little Princess who wanted to keep Dragon. :) 

Adelle helped to read out a short letter in the book, hold the card and answering question. After which, they get to wear the princess costume and take picture! 

Thereafter, they went on with the Kinder Breuno painting. We were given 20mins to paint and they have sample painted version for us to follow. The nicest win prizes! They are very kind to allow one table per winner and Adelle won the limited edition Lunch tin. 

After panting was done, it was quiz time. They give chances to those children who have not yet won anything. The prize is either a notebook or a kinder joy tin consist of the kinder joy chocolates! As Danelle has not yet win anything so she entitle to once chance, Adelle & me helped her answer one tricky question... The current population in Singapore! I guess 5.3 million n we won the kinder joy tin of chocolate! Yeah we are so happy with our wins!
