A visit to the Botanical Garden in Singapore

It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon, we decided to visit the Botanical Gardens in Singapore.

I love water lilies. They looked beautiful, especially with the dragonfly on it!

The orchid is the national flower of Singapore.

More water lilies.

This tall tree came from Borneo.

Bonsai Garden.

Swan Lake.

Kids get to have water fun at the children's park at the garden.

We ended the day with same kite flying by our residence.

Our Trip to Singapore

We have traveled to Singapore for a long trip to visit family. Chinatown in Singapore is filled with beautiful lights to welcome the year of the rabbit.

On Chinese New Year, all families and friends visit one another in their beautiful new clothes.

Everyone joins in with a pair of chopsticks to mix a popular dish called "Yu Sheng" which consists of some raw fish.

Here's me and my boys in our traditional clothes. The mandarin orange resembles gold and we would exchange them with friends and families to wish them fortune.

Kids gather to play in our playroom.

Kids too get to play outside on the playground.

Kids get entertained with Thomas trains and hamsters.

There's lots of candies on Chinese New Year.

The kids love being with their cousins. Here they are on a car ride home after visiting friends.

Here they are on a phone call with their cousins. Can't get them apart.

I brought the kids to a shaded playground at the IMM Building. This place was usually crowded with kids over the weekends. I love weekdays.

They turned on the waterpark just for us. The waterpark is located at the top of the mall. The boys had tremendous fun there!

Looks like this will not be the last time we'll come here. How fun!

Robert and Janey's Engagement Pictures

It was fun doing the engagement photo shoot for Robert and Janey. They were very adventurous to try out the night time photo shoot at Downtown Des Moines. We were lucky to have a great weekend weather in November to our outdoor shoot.
