Marina Barrage


My cousins are kind enough to drive us to the Marina Barrage. It's our first time there. What a beautiful open park. The kids seemed to be excited to be there.

Bubble fun with the cousins.

It was a beautiful day by the dam.

It's a place for kite enthusiasts!
The kids having fun on the bridge.

West Coast Park


Our first time to the West Coast Park since we were back. One of the very few sandy playground left in the country. It's interesting that you don't find any playgrounds with swings here anymore.

This pirate ship playground is somewhat challenging to a two-year-old.

Playground fun

I got together with my old friend, Fiona, and her 2 little girls for a playdate with my boys.

The kids played very well together. Seemed to enjoy themselves to the merry go round.

The sisters were so much fun to be with. So adorable!

Honestly it's so much fun here, we could come here every week. Shaded playground and free water park all to ourselves ... more visits to come.

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!

Walsh Wedding

We went to Storm Lake for a beautiful New Year's Eve wedding. The energy out there was like no other. No one cared about the icy roads or the cold, they were all having a good time and celebrating Holly and Michael's big day. The most romantic first dance and the new year's celebration made this wedding an unforgettable one.
