2010 the 15 days of CNY period

Kate's CNY celebration for this year started on the Thursday before CNY with a reunion dinner with her
爷爷 and family (and 叔叔's girlfriend! :P) at Pu Tien a Jurong Point.  The mee sua is yummy (the picture is that of the yu sheng)!




On Friday, Kate and 婆婆 and mommy went to the florists at Thomson Road to buy some flowers to decorate the house.


On Saturday, which is the eve of Chinese New Year, Kate and mommy and papa went to 婆婆's place for the steamboat.  This reunion dinner is noiser than usual as most of the 姨姨 (except for one) can make it back, so its the usual strength (and noise) of a Friday dinner!  Here's a picture of Charlie and Kate next to the lilies that were bought from Far East Flora. Can see that next time Charlie will grow up to be a big beauty...






Sunday is the first day, and Kate dress up to go to 爷爷's place.  But she did not manage to meet up with her 表妹 and 表弟 as 表妹 had her nap and was unable to turn up early, and mommy had to leave early for home to rest as she injure her back again (yes, first day and have to go to A & E!).


On lunar 2nd day, as with the tradition of the previous years, Kate rushed from 大姨姨's place to 二姨姨's place (where they have fun terrorizing the pet rabbit :P) back to 四姨姨's place before going to 婆婆's place for dinner.  Nicole was chaperone for the 2 gals for the day and she did a good job! :)



The 3rd day is also a public holiday, and 爷爷 and the 2 叔叔 and 叔叔's girlfriend and  姑姑 and 姑丈 and 表弟 came over to our place.  表妹 was unable to make it as she had fallen sick after consuming too much CNY goodies!

After that, Kate and mommy went to Auntie Xiaowen's place where she had a fun time with Cheyanne and Keondre.

The next day cc was closed, and mommy and Kate went to send the camera for servicing.

A few days later, on the Saturday, Kate and mommy was invited to a BBQ by Auntie Connie who have moved to a lovely area in central area.  She set up plenty of water play for the kids to play and also BBQ food for the famished adults!  The kids have lots of fun with the toys and the adults are impressed with the house and the plants (they have real passion fruit plant and starfruit tree. Wow!).  And also very impressive is Auntie Jamie who is now soooooo slimmmmmmmmmm and she does not look like the mother of 2 kids (mommy took a picture as proof! :P)!  It was a great gathering as mommy have not seen some of them for a longgg time, and had a good time catching up.


  

 


On the 15th day of CNY, papa and mommy gave up on the extreme heat and brought Kate for a swim at Safra.  The water was so warm it felt like its about 30 degree! 

So here's a recap of how Kate spend her CNY! :)
