Sand Castles - Castle Beach

We bought both our kiddos to East Coast beach last week and we did enjoyed ourselves much. The sandcastle building activities are really fun and even Mary Jane enjoyed it.

It was a lazy afternoon for us and hubby decided to bring us to beach as per Jaryl's request. We headed down to East Coast beach just for a small walk and makan, but we saw huge sand castles by the beach and decided to build sand castles instead.

There was a demo by Mr Alvin Lee the finder on how to build sand castles and all you have to do is to purchase the Beach Works Kit (Basic set + Bucket + Mini Castle + Flattener) to start the ball rolling.

I was busy talking care of Jarica initially, therefore, Jaryl and Mary Jane was in action. I guess Mary Jane did missed out the demo which was conducted by Mr Alvin Lee and did not know how to start. However, one kind staff came to join two of them and taught Jaryl how to build sand castles. She was with him through out the whole activity and I really appreciate her help. Not long after, hubby joined in and so do I while Jarica was sleeping and Mary Jane had to take over to look after her.

My 'spooky' office

I went back to my office with Jaryl over the weekend and he was wondering why there is nobody working in the office..... Well, we were there to pick up my camera and cable which I did left on my desk last Friday. The switches was off due to energy saving and Jaryl did commented that my office is 'spooky'. Come and think of it.... it really looks difference when the lights are off and nobody was working then.

I took some photos of Jaryl at my workstation before we left for home. He sure looks happy in my ‘spooky’ office.

Christmas Workshop

Jaryl did Art and Craft, cookery and learnt Christmas songs in school. He has a great time and he enjoyed the programme. He once told me that he has learnt to make cupcakes in school and he had eaten them and can't show them to me. Well, I am grateful that he is happy and enjoyed what he had done in school so far.

KFC Buddy Meal

I decided to order KFC home delivery yesterday, since I am not cooking. But I was told the waiting time would be 1 and half hour..... Therefore, I did walked over to the nearest shopping center which is 5mins away from my place to buy our dinner. We enjoyed the meal, especially Jaryl.

Power Rangers In Shopping Mall

Bought Jaryl to watch Power Rangers last weekend and he really enjoyed the show. After the show I tried to bring him away from the stage as they would start the photo taking session with the Power Rangers. With every $30 dollar spend, you would entitle a picture with the Rangers. As we arrived late at the Shopping Mall, all coupons were redeemed. Luckily, the organizer saw him queued in line and actually allowed him to take picture with his fav. Power Rangers and Power Rangers Dino Thunder. I was so relieved and thankful to the organizer. Moreover, she had given Jaryl free gifts from the Rangers.

Long overdue visit to......The Library

I bought Jaryl to the library and as usual, he will borrow his favorite dinosaurs books.... each time a different book.

As we were about to leave the library, I did remember to make payment thru. Kisok and Jaryl will very much love to help.

'Mission' completed

Before we head for home, Jaryl was hungry and we did stop over for a nibble at the food courts. Actually it was almost dinner time but I guess he cannot wait unstill then.

Well, don’t call that a bite…..as good as having dinner ^-^ His favorite 'yellow' noodles with meat balls.

Jaryl's Drawing - 9 Planets

A house and 9 Planets above it

Last night, Jaryl started his board drawing and Mary Jean (name of our maid) was asked to join him. Here's their 'masterpiece'..... If you were to realised there are ten planets instead of nine in the drawing. Therefore, I did found out the order of planets is based on distances from the Sun. Moreover, I had read that astronomers have demoted Pluto so there are now only eight planets.

If you are interested to know more about 9 Planets, there are some useful websites for you.
