Christmas day + boxing day

Like I mentioned in the earlier post, we woke up with massive headache. Did church in the morning, V sang a Happy Birthday song to Jesus... was real sweet and it melted our hearts...

Then came home to lunch and we slept more! Tays' celebration starts late afternoon and so we took our time to move our butts. We had food and chatted around for about 3 hours with my cousins/relatives and went to Grandma Pam (Grandma Ng's twin sister) to eat eat eat.... by 9 pm we were so stuffed it wasn't funny. V went berserk after eating a small piece of chocolate cake... running and screaming around the place. So we though the chocolate was too rich or something for she is not a fan of chocolate. But after few days later, we realized the chocolate cake was infused with brandy/bailey *opps to the max!!! no wonder she was going crazy.

At dinner that night, DD 's cousin brought a caucasian chap who sort of gate crashed, a nice 60-70 years old man who came to Singapore to spend christmas/nye here, basically to escape from the cold in London. After much chatting, we realized he is some billionaire with many hotels and shopping malls around the world! wow... people like that don't come dropping infront of your doorsteps. So I asked him his secret of being so successful in life ... he replied "I work to eat... its that simple" hmmm simple right? I think I'm seeing him again tomorrow, so more questions will be asked.

After much probing after he left, we discovered that he was actually a guest in a hotel in england where my cousin's newly wedded wife was working and apparently he got so sick, he was stuck in the hotel for months and was nursed back to health by the staffs in the hotel. By which has become real close friends of his.. well nice story isn't it? "Do unto others like how you like others to do until you"

The next day was dinner at Ern's place... so was more yummilious food by ern's mummy didn't take photos as I just attacked it. More gifts for the little ones and V didn't wait long to open her presents as it has been going on for 2 days already.



Then after the mayhem, the kiddos decided it was real cool to exchange pointers on their gadgets. Note the boys took the big ones...
